At Aloderma, farm-to-skin isn't just a marketing phrase; it's a scientific commitment. We meticulously cultivate organic aloe vera and ensure its potency reaches your skin. One key player in this process is propanediol, a seemingly simple ingredient with impressive technical capabilities.

Chemically classified as a 1,3-propanediol, this versatile molecule is derived from corn sugar fermentation. Unlike its harsh counterparts, propanediol serves as a humectant. It exhibits hygroscopic properties, attracting and retaining moisture from the environment and deeper skin layers. This creates an optimal microclimate for optimal penetration of our star ingredient: organically-sourced aloe vera. Propanediol essentially acts as a delivery system, facilitating the absorption of aloe vera's inherent moisturizing and soothing properties.

The technical prowess of propanediol extends beyond moisture management. It functions as a non-polar solvent, gently dissolving other skincare actives within the formula. This allows for the creation of elegant, lightweight products that absorb rapidly without leaving a greasy film. Additionally, propanediol possesses mild antimicrobial properties, contributing to the overall shelf life of our products, ensuring you experience the farm-fresh benefits for longer.

At Aloderma, transparency and harnessing the power of botanical ingredients are paramount. Propanediol plays a pivotal role in several of our formulations, including the Aloe Firming Cream, Aloe Firming Serum, Aloe Firming Toner, and  Aloe Hydrating Serum, This seemingly simple ingredient plays a crucial role in delivering the farm-to-skin experience that defines our brand.
