FAQs

TermaBurn's Aloe Wrap for Sunburn Relief is – simply - a new, better way to treat sunburn. Unlike traditional sticky aloe gels, the patented Aloe Wrap is a semi-pliable hydrogel roll - imagine an ACE bandage made of aloe. This unique, patented product measures 52 inches by 4 inches, allowing users to cut the necessary amount to cover their sunburn, providing immediate and sustained cooling relief.

The wrap is enriched with organic aloe vera, green tea, and vitamin E, ingredients known for their soothing, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Upon application, the Aloe Wrap instantly cools the skin, hydrates, and moisturizes, reducing the potential for itching and peeling as the skin heals. For optimal results, we recommend cutting a piece of the wrap to size and placing it on the affected area for 20-40 minutes, allowing the skin to fully absorb the benefits of the infused ingredients. This method ensures an extended treatment period compared to traditional gels, all while maintaining a clean, non-sticky feel. You can also re-use each piece of the wrap many times.

First, an Aloe Wrap offers superior relief and promotes faster healing through what skincare experts refer to as "Time in contact." When using traditional aloe gels, not only do they often feel sticky and unpleasant, but their efficacy is limited. Aloe and other beneficial ingredients simply evaporate off the skin rather than being absorbed. Consequently, once the gel dries, its healing properties cease. In contrast, with an Aloe Wrap, users can leave it on for a duration of their choosing, whether it be minutes or hours, ensuring continuous contact between the skin and the nourishing blend of aloe, green tea, and vitamin E.

Second, Aloe Wraps provide a more enjoyable user experience. Unlike the messy application of conventional sticky gels, Aloe Wraps offer a clean and hassle-free solution. Users can apply the wrap for the desired duration and then easily remove it without leaving any residue behind. This means you can swiftly resume your daily activities or continue enjoying your vacation without any inconvenience… and without the stinging pain!

TermaBurn's Aloe Wrap employs several mechanisms to effectively soothe sunburned skin.

Water/Evaporative Cooling: The initial sensation users experience upon applying the Aloe Wrap is a refreshing "hit" of cooling. This is attributed to the high water content within the wrap, facilitating an evaporative cooling effect. As the water evaporates from the wrap, it draws heat away from the skin, providing immediate relief from the discomfort of sunburn.

Organic Aloe Vera: Our Aloe Wrap is infused with 100% organic aloe vera, renowned for its healing properties. Aloe vera aids in soothing burns and skin injuries by promoting collagen synthesis and cross-linking. This not only accelerates wound healing but also helps minimize the formation of scar tissue, leaving the skin smoother and healthier.

Green Tea: Another key ingredient in our Aloe Wrap is green tea, recognized for its potent anti-inflammatory properties. High in polyphenols called catechins, green tea effectively reduces irritation, redness, and swelling associated with sunburn, providing further relief and promoting skin comfort.

Vitamin E: Completing the trifecta of skin-nourishing ingredients, our Aloe Wrap contains vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant. Vitamin E works to protect skin cells from damage caused by free radicals, contributing to overall skin health. Naturally present in our skin oil (sebum), vitamin E helps maintain moisture levels, ensuring the skin remains hydrated and supple.

Combined, these ingredients work synergistically to deliver comprehensive relief from sunburn, while promoting skin repair and rejuvenation.

While wearing sunscreen is undoubtedly the best practice for protecting your skin from the harmful effects of the sun, we understand that mistakes can occur. In an ideal world, everyone would be as perfect as the snarky detractors on TikTok 😉 and would religiously apply sunscreen to prevent sunburn altogether.

However, we acknowledge that human error, forgetfulness, or unexpected circumstances may lead to sunburn despite our best intentions. And when that happens, our Aloe Wrap offers soothing relief, helping individuals recover more comfortably and quickly, ensuring they can still enjoy their lives without undue suffering.

TermaBurn contains a small amount of green food coloring. In our commitment to ensuring our products are both effective and user-friendly, we've considered the importance of user acceptance and preference. Initially, our Aloe Wraps had an off-white appearance due to the natural color of the ingredients, which some users found less appealing. Through testing, we discovered that a light-green hue was preferred by our testers, leading us to incorporate a minimal amount of green food coloring.

To provide perspective on safety, we add only 0.6 grams of common green food coloring to every 100 kg batch of TermaBurn gel, representing just 0.00067% by volume. This amount falls well below the safety guidelines established by the FDA for consumer products. Since TermaBurn is intended for topical use and not ingestion, our wraps are deemed 100% safe. To put this into context, the exposure to food-coloring dyes from TermaBurn is significantly lower than what one would encounter from consuming a single serving of most common foods or beverages.

TermaBurn does not contain any added perfumes. While one ingredient may list "May contain perfume," we specifically source this ingredient without perfume to preserve the natural and pleasant fragrance, primarily derived from the green tea infusion. We believe in maintaining the integrity of our product's natural aroma, enhancing the overall user experience without the need for artificial scents.

All of our wraps are proudly manufactured in-house at our state-of-the-art factory located in Pennsylvania. We prioritize quality and integrity by exclusively sourcing the finest ingredients from reputable suppliers within the United States.

Our wraps are crafted using a unique and patented process on a specialized machine. This innovative technology allows us to create hydrogels that adhere to the paper backing while remaining non-adhesive to the skin. This feature is crucial as it ensures that the healing process of damaged skin cells is undisturbed, providing optimal comfort and relief to our users.

We understand the importance of addressing potential allergies to ensure the safety of our customers. If you have a known allergy to aloe, we regret to inform you that our Aloe Wrap may not be suitable for your use. As a main ingredient in our product, aloe is integral to its formulation, and individuals with aloe allergies should refrain from using our wraps to prevent any adverse reactions. We prioritize the health and well-being of our customers and encourage those with allergies to seek alternative solutions that align with their specific needs.

Certainly! Our Aloe Wraps are versatile and can be used to address various skin issues beyond sunburns. Whether you're dealing with household burns, rashes, bug bites, poison ivy, scratches, or scrapes, our wraps provide soothing relief and promote healing. The moist healing environment created by our wraps is beneficial for any skin irritation, offering comfort and support throughout the recovery process.

Our Aloe Wraps offer convenience and longevity for multiple uses. After cutting a piece to size and applying it to your burn for a minimum of 20 minutes, you can simply place it back onto the paper backing and store it in the resealable bag for future use.

Each piece of our Aloe Wrap can typically be used between 5 to 10 times, depending on the duration of each application. On average, each piece remains effective for approximately 3 to 4 hours of exposure to air before beginning to dry out. This ensures that you can enjoy sustained relief from sunburns and other skin irritations over multiple applications, maximizing the value and convenience of our product.

Before opening the vacuum seal, our Aloe Wraps do not require refrigeration. However, once the vacuum bag is opened, we recommend refrigerating the wraps to prolong their shelf life. Without refrigeration and in the provided resealable bag, an opened wrap can maintain its quality for approximately 10 to 14 days before the natural, pleasant fragrance may begin to diminish. Refrigeration extends the shelf life significantly, allowing opened wraps to retain their efficacy for years without any loss of quality.
It's important to note that freezing the Aloe Wrap is not advisable, as it may cause the wrap to fracture into smaller pieces. However, if the wrap accidentally freezes but remains intact, it can still be used normally without any adverse effects.

Absolutely! Many home remedies, particularly those involving aloe plants, can offer some degree of effectiveness in soothing sunburns. However, TermaBurn's Aloe Wraps are uniquely crafted to provide all the benefits of multiple home remedies in one convenient and cost-saving product.

To achieve similar results as with our Aloe Wraps using home remedies, you would need to undertake several steps:

• Own an aloe plant and prepare a homemade aloe vera gel by blending a branch of the plant with water, straining the mixture, and applying it to the burn.
• Soak a cloth or paper towel in vinegar and leave it on the burned area for 20 minutes or more, enduring the scent of vinegar.
• Purchase and apply Vitamin E oil to the affected area, which can be thick and sticky.
• Purchase and apply Green Tea Serum, or alternatively, boil down green tea to a concentrate and soak the area.

In total, you would likely spend close to $100 and invest several hours in preparation, all to replicate the results achievable with TermaBurn's Aloe Wrap. Our product offers a convenient, portable, all-in-one solution that saves you time, effort, and money, while still delivering superior relief and healing for sunburns.
