The invention includes a skin treatment compound containing aloe vera and methods of use thereof. In one embodiment, the skin treatment compound includes aloe vera, and preferably 30×, 100× or 200× concentrated aloe vera powder, water, a Carbomer such as Ultrez powder, glycerin, lubricating ingredients, sodium hydroxide, Vitamin C, a complex mixture of skin-healing botanicals, Japanese Green Tea Extract, at least one amino acid precursor, a ceramide compound, an antioxidant, a glycosaminoglycan, and a natural preservative, preferably selected from the group consisting of lime oil, orange oil, and bergamot oil.

The invention is directed to a hydratable concentrated surfactant composition. The composition is pourable, easy to dilute, substantially free of sulfate and oil, comprises a C.sub.6-C.sub.14 acid, alcohol or both, an anionic surfactant comprising acyl isethionate and an amphoteric surfactant, zwitterionic surfactant or both. The composition is in lamellar phase and thickens and transforms to an isotropic phase upon dilution. The composition can be used as a concentrate in small volumes and diluted as used and needed or can be diluted with water in refill packaging to ensure a reduction in plastic waste.
