Natural & Organic Aloe Vera Gel - Body & Face Moisturizer for Sensitive Skin with Manuka Honey, Apple & Orchid Stem Cells - Hydrating Gel for Sunburn, Acne, Eczema, Psoriasis & Dry Skin & Scalp (8 oz)

I searched for aloe Vera gel &. Found this one out of a few & I liked the price the & the amount I get for the price is a winner zz It’s pure yet has a light scent as told in the label I didn’t detect it. I really like this gel it’s super absorbent & mines smoothly into my skin, my hair & I must admit I’d like a bigger bottle once I started using it in different ways, found it can go fast because it’s so versatile. It’s a good buy to me & I’ll buy it again. Try it!

I have used this aloe vera gel twice, once for a scrape on my ankle and once as an after shave, and in both cases was delighted with its benefits. The scrape on my ankle stopped stinging and the rate of healing seemed to accelerate, and as an after shave it left my skin feeling hydrated and smooth. I had to work to find the aloe vera content (86%) and think that this ought to be prominently displayed to potential purchasers. The gel is rapidly absorbed and leaves the skin feeling moist and irritation-free. I expect to use this often as it is a versatile tonic that seems to have a wide variety of uses.

First, let me touch on the main intended purpose of the product, and then I will expound on the magic. As a skin moisturizer, this was unfortunately a fail for me. I bought this to use on my face, specifically to target under-eye circles. I cannot attest to the effectiveness of that purpose as, every time I used the product on my face, I suffered rash-like welts around my eyes. I have no allergies or sensitivity that I am aware of but something in this mixture negatively impacted the sensitive skin around my eyes. Next, I used the product on my legs after shaving. I habitually use a generic brand aloe gel for said purpose with wonderful results - smoother skin, no itching, burning and it stops the bleeding from any nicks. I am not a careful shaver, haha. However, I again experienced rash-like welts on my legs. The bottle sat on my caddy for a long time until I read that aloe can be beneficial to hair. I have long waist-length hair and, after moving into my home a year ago, I have been battling the effects of hard water. At one point, before I discovered vinegar rinse, my hair almost became dreadlocks! I digress - though I was able to repair and manage my hair it still remained slightly hard, dry, frizzy at the ends, and not particularly pretty. I began toying with the notion of "chopping it off." Last week, after reading that article, I grabbed this bottle. I figured even if nothing happened, it was just sitting there going to waste anyhow. After only 2 applications I woke up with soft, beautiful, flowing curls. Natural, straight out of bed! TV commercial curls! Here's the rub - I've never really had curls like this before... Oh, perhaps one side of my head would attempt a half-hearted ringlet whilst the other side was determined to impersonate a broomstick but nothing that could begin to reflect how beautiful my hair looks today. I'm not sure what witchcraft this is but I am beyond thrilled. I will happily use the rest of my bottle and purchase more!

Okay. Look. I was spending a lot of money for an organic aloe gel that has brrn discontinued. I was severely overpaying, lol. This stuff is still sticky, but it's truly impossible to use aloe and for it to not feel tacky at all. It's just how it is... But! This stuff isn't horribly sticky at all and it dries down really well. Now, the reason why I'm thanking God for this? My skin has never been this bad. Breakouts everywhere, huge pores, unbalanced and generally congested. I started throwing everything at my skin to kill the acne and gave myself chemical burns on my eyelids (and I'd do it again, tf; the condition of my skin affects my mental health on a deep level). This aloe fixed all of the irritation in like, three days. My skin is calmer, more balanced/moisturized, is clearing wonderfully with no new breakouts, and is somehow helping my other products work better. I think because of how gently exfoliating the aloe is allows for deeper penetraions since I don't have layers of dead skin/gunk for the products to sit on top of. I have faith that I'll have nice skin again soon. I love this stuff. And it smells good; very light with a gentle apple scent. Permanent buyer.

This is pleasant stuff if you don't mind the gel-ish/sticky feel of aloe barbadensis, which I don't because coming from a line of green witches, that's how I know this has real aloe in it. My partner, 4 year old son (the texture bothered his sensory issues, but I think it would have helped if we had warmed it up a bit first), and I used this up in about a week. The squirt thingy is very short so you have to remove it when the bottle is still a 3th or 5th of the way full and just bang the heck out of it to get out the rest of the product. This was extremely frustrating because it is thicker than shampoo or lotion so we had to get something to scrape out every bit,, having spent so much money on it! This is unacceptable for a company turning such a profit. I can tell it is real aloe by the scent and the sticky feel. It is pleasant and I like it very much. I was hoping it would help with my scabies, as aloe straight from the plant did, but this didn't. I was hoping it would help with my eczema but it seems to have made it worse somehow. I wish I could buy another few bottles and see how it works long-term, but I'm not wealthy, so I'm going to stick with using grapeseed, sunflower, or canola oils with some added neem and lavender. I'm sad, I very much wanted to give this more of a try but the price is outrageous.
