Aloe vera

WHICH famous plant is found in almost every beauty product you can lay your hands on?

From shampoos to sunscreens to moisturisers, at least one item in each range boasts it contains aloe vera. There are even aloe vera toothpastes.

The over-exposure might leave you wondering if it's all just a marketing ploy, but there is plenty of evidence to suggest this really is a superplant.

It has been shown to ease a wide range of problems, mostly connected to the skin and the digestion.
