Back in 1840, the aloe vera wonder plant was introduced in Aruba, influencing everything from art and architecture to health and healing. Soon, two-thirds of Aruba's surface was covered with aloe vera plants and Aruba became the world's largest aloe exporter. The first aloe vera plants were planted on 150 acres of land at the Hato plantation which is still used today to grow the aloe for all Aruba Aloe products.

The fierce southern Caribbean sun and Aruba's desert environment intensify the plant's natural healing qualities and produces the earth’s most potent aloe gel to revitalize skin and help repair skin damage. Aloe has grown into an entire line of skin care products known around the world for its moisturizing benefits. Aruba Aloe is making great strides in global research studies with aloe and is leading the way with a line of moisturizing products that can be found in homes all over the world.
