Aloe Vera Gel:

Cucumber & Aloe Fragrance Oil:
The perfect summer and spa scent! Cool and refreshing, our Cucumber & Aloe Fragrance opens with the zest of lemon and orange with fresh mint, deliciously blended with aloe vera, crisp cucumbers and fresh air, rounded brilliantly with green vines, cucumber blossom and musk, for a smooth dry down.
White Lily and Aloe Fragrance Oil:
This fragrance is a delightfully complex, feminine scent that smells like a high-end light and breezy floral perfume. It opens with a complex array of top notes including Violet Leaf, Mandarin, Blackcurrant bud, Apple and Melon. Its middle notes of Lily of the Valley, Lotus, Frangipani, Orange Blossom and Mimosa bridge the scent, nestled onto the base of Amber, Sandalwood and light Musk.
