‘Cooling, Hydration, and Healing’ Amazing Aloe… A Summer Essential [Moon Hyewon's Cosmetics Review]
Kim Jung Moon Aloe 'Cure Aloe Soothing Gel'
Contains Aloe Vera Juice from Jeju
Effect Doubles When Used Refrigerated
[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] When spending extended time outdoors under the scorching summer sun, the skin can become red and inflamed, and in severe cases, suffer burns. The remarkable 'Aloe,' which instantly cools the heated skin, provides moisture, and even aids in wound healing, is truly an indispensable tonic during the summer season.
Aloe is a perennial plant of the lily family and has been used like medicine since the era of the ancient Egyptian dynasties for treating burns, boosting immunity, promoting digestive health, and enhancing blood circulation. This is because a component called ursin in aloe has effects such as protecting mucous membranes, reducing inflammation, and promoting the generation of new skin tissue. Additionally, a substance called tyrosinase inhibits activation, thereby preventing the growth of melanin pigments that cause freckles and blemishes, promoting skin regeneration, and helping to prevent acne scars from remaining on the skin.
Aloe is sometimes consumed as juice or jelly-type beverages, but in summer, it is often used as a gel-type soothing gel. The most famous aloe-related company, Kim Jung Moon Aloe, offers the 'Cure Aloe Soothing Gel,' which contains 89.4% of three-year-old aloe vera leaf juice cultivated in Jeju Island. Since it contains fresh aloe juice rather than powder, it feels even fresher. The cooling aloe component effectively soothes the skin and supplies ample moisture, making the skin firm from within.
According to experiments by Kim Jung Moon Aloe, the product rapidly cools the skin temperature by about 7℃ immediately after application, demonstrating a rapid heat-relief effect. Aloe soothing gel can quickly calm facial redness and also help prevent skin troubles like acne. When the skin heats up and the temperature rises, the amount of sebum increases, causing more waste to accumulate inside pores than usual, so lowering skin temperature can aid in acne prevention. Unlike sunscreen applied before going out for protection, aloe soothing gel is more often used as an aftercare treatment to soothe skin that has already become red and inflamed after being outdoors. The transparent texture of aloe soothing gel spreads elastically over the skin and, once partially absorbed, leaves the skin soft and radiant.

For double the heat-relief and soothing effect, it is recommended to store the gel in the refrigerator before use. Applying chilled aloe soothing gel to red or irritated skin provides immediate pain relief simply from the cool sensation upon application.
