Aloe Vera:
The extraordinary healing powers of the aloe vera plant make it an important
ingredient in the Jackson Reece formula. The leaves contain a gel which has an
immediate healing effect on wounds and burns. The gel acts like a protective coating
on the skin and accelerates the healing process. It is also a mild anaesthetic and
relieves pain and itching. It increases the flow of blood and reduces inflammation,
swelling and redness.
Aloe vera is also beneficial for skin disorders such as psoriasis,
acne and exzema. The gel acts as a moisturiser, removes dead cells and can reduce
scarring. Aloe vera gels and sprays are also used in the relief of arthritic pain in the
joints and muscles.
Tea Tree Oil:
Tea tree has a long history of traditional use. Australian aboriginals used tea tree
leaves for healing skin cuts, burns, and infections by crushing the leaves and applying
them to the affected area. Tea tree oil contains constituents called terpenoids, which
have been found to have antiseptic and antifungal activity. Tea tree oil is commonly
used as a treatment for acne, athlete's foot, dandruff and exzema.
Lavender Essential Oil:
There are many good reasons why lavender is in the
Jackson Reece formula. It smells great,
relaxing oil, which combats stress and
has a healing effect
and is useful for skin problems,
wounds, insect bites and stings.
Purified Water:
We think it’s important to filter water to a high standard to kill any harmful bacteria.
