Review: Key West Aloe
Spring is one of the toughest seasons to prepare for – one day it’s sunny and beautiful, and the next day it’s icky and rainy. To prep for the changing weather, the most important thing you can do is make sure you’re taking care of your skin (SPF, please!). Even though it’s not boiling hot yet, chances are you’re spending more time outdoors in the sun. Plus, your complexion probably hasn’t recovered from the harshness of winter quite yet.
Rescue your skin from winter woes and spring sun exposure at the same time with Key West Aloe, a line of aloe-based products that soothe, protect and revitalize. You might remember putting Aloe Vera on your sunburns as a kid, but this natural ingredient has benefits beyond cooling scorched skin. Products containing Aloe Vera can soothe any type of skin irritation, and also work well for everyday maintenance.
The Key West Aloe Day Moist ($27) is perfect for those with normal to oily skin, as it has a matte finish excellent for controlling shine, and works well under make up. Made with 40% Aloe Vera, it’s lightweight but provides all-day hydration.
At night, smooth on the evening equivalent, Night Moist ($30), and you’ll wake up with skin that is glowing and rejuvenated. Made with 80% Aloe Vera, Night Moist contains antioxidants that help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while you sleep. Since it’s so highly concentrated, you only need to use a little bit – meaning the bottle lasts a long time.
More on the company: Key West Aloe was the first to use Aloe Vera as the foundation of all their products. That was 40 years ago and now the company makes everything from facial products, shower gel and anti-aging products.
