Aloe Barbadensis, the aloe vera plant, is renowned for its numerous health benefits. Scientific research has revealed that the inner gel of the aloe vera leaf boasts an impressive array of over 200 active compounds, including vital minerals, vitamins, enzymes, amino acids, and polysaccharides. Notably, polysaccharides are exclusive to aloe vera and their benefits have yet to be replicated synthetically, highlighting aloe's unique properties

Pure Potency - No Fillers
Ever wonder what the ingredient list on skincare labels really means? Ingredients are listed in order of concentration, so the ones at the top are the most prominent. That's why we're proud to say that certified organic aloe vera is the number one ingredient in every single one of our formulas. Unlike many other skincare brands that lead with water, our products are packed with the goodness of aloe vera from the very start. Our formulas are carefully crafted to combine the power of aloe vera with collagen-boosting vitamins and antioxidants, making every drop of Gleem Beauty skincare count.
A Straight Forward Philosophy
Synergy is key. In skincare, synergy means that when ingredients or products work together, they can achieve amazing results that would be impossible alone. That's why we believe a simple, consistent routine is the secret to healthy, glowing skin. Our approach is built around a daily 3-step routine: cleanse, hydrate, and moisturize. By committing to this routine with products that work together in harmony, you'll unlock the full potential of your skin and start seeing transformative results.
Step 1: Cleanse
Remove excess oils, dirt and impurities to prepare your skin for the rest of your routine.
Step 2: Tone
This important step locks in moisture and deeply hydrates the skin, preparing it for moisturizing absorption.
Step 3: Moisturise
Restore hydration and enhance the skin's moisture barrier for maximum protection.
The Hydration Showdown: Aloe Vera vs. Water
At Gleem Beauty, we're passionate about aloe vera skincare. Unlike water-based formulas, our products feature aloe vera as the number one ingredient, providing unparalleled hydration benefits. But what makes aloe vera so special?
The Facts
Water can't penetrate skin deeply, offering only temporary hydration. In contrast, aloe vera is scientifically proven to reach four times deeper, providing long-lasting hydration where it's needed most. Aloe vera's unique polysaccharides form a protective barrier, locking in moisture and reducing water loss.
The Benefits of Aloe Hydration
- Superior Water Retention: Aloe vera's high water content and polysaccharides work together to keep skin hydrated for longer.
- Natural Humectant: Aloe vera draws moisture from the air, maintaining skin hydration over time.
- Unique Polysaccharides: Aloe vera's exclusive compounds promote nutrient absorption, cell regeneration, and skin health.
- Multi-Tasking Benefits: Aloe vera nourishes, repairs, and protects skin, amplifying its hydrating effects.
The Verdict
Aloe vera outperforms water-based skincare in every way. With its unmatched hydration benefits, skin-enhancing properties, and natural ingredients, aloe vera is the clear winner. Choose Gleem Beauty's aloe vera-based skincare for long-lasting, transformative results. Every drop counts!
