In the past few years, skincare companies have boasted the usage of natural ingredients in their products. It’s a great initiative to ensure the skin health of the customers. It’s no surprise that the addition of natural ingredients in cosmetics and skin care products improves the quality and prevents skin issues. Amidst several skincare ingredients, Aloe Barbadensis leaf extract and leucine stands out as skincare ingredients.
According to the National Center For Complementary and Integrative Health, aloe vera is an excellent ingredient for skin when applied topically. It helps reduce burning sensation, rashes, and acne issues. Several skincare brands use Aloe Barbadensis leaf extract which offers anti-inflammatory and healing properties, while soothing, hydrating, and nourishing the skin.
Aloe barbadensis leaf extract is derived from the leaves of aloe vera plant which includes minerals, vitamins, and polyphenols.
This extract is rich in antioxidants which defends skin against environmental stresses. Several studies proved that it possesses soothing properties that serve as a hydrating agent.

According to the University of Rochester Medical Center, leucine is an amino acid that helps in healing skin. It is known to promote skin repair and renewal, improving elasticity. Leucine cannot be synthesised in our body, thus, we have to be dependent on the diet to get it. It is believed to be readily absorbed on the skin and forms a layer which protects the skin and hair. It locks the skin’s inherent moisture and nourishes the skin. Additionally, it has an anti-ageing effect on the skin.
