Pros It's safe like everybody said shows result for some people but not all
Cons none
Bottom line Use are own risk but understand it's a safe product and sometimes it takes awhile for it to work it's like drinking beer not everybody drink 2 or 3 beers get drunk your body acts differently so does your face so give it a try.
THis is the ingred. if ppl are wondering if it's safe!
Aloe Vera the main ingred.
tetrasoduim EDTA is another buffer solution.
DMDM HYDANTOIN is used in the formulation of the gels and other skin care productss, moisturizers, bath products.
Carbomer 940 is classed as a gelling agent and forms clear gels basically the clear gel u s

Bottom line This is not a review as such, but I want to warn a LOT of people out there who think this product is pure aloe vera gel. IT IS NOT 100% ALOE VERA- it clearly says 100% GEL.
sure the aloe vera they used might be pure & they HAD TO add other ingredients to stabilize & preserve the aloe-but thats the point- THERE ARE OTHER INGREDIENTS like :Triethanolamine, Tocopheryl Acetate, Carbomer 940, Tetrasodium EDTA, DMDM Hydantoin, Diazolidinyl Urea
So please dont be under the misconception that this is 100% aloe
a lot of other products state the actual % of aloe vera in it ...for example another leading brand states 97.4% aloe vera BUT FOTE doesnt state anywhere wht the exact percentage of aloe vera is...this is a bit suspicious to me, but use ur own discretion before using this product...am not saying that it is a bad product, it might still be good,
I just read a review abt someone feeding their pets this stuff & that truly alarmed me, so I had to put this info out there...

Pros This product really helps to reduce the brown spots left from acne scarring as well as the redness left from a healing zit.
Cons Might leave skin feeling tight, and it does not work so well on whitehead zits or big boilers.
Bottom line Overall this product is a natural, effective, and affordable product that you can pick up at your local drug store. I would try it for yourself and see if you like it.

Pros feels good on your face, moisturizes my cheek area perfectly, gets rid of flaky skin, absorbs quickly (no film on face), reduces redness
Cons if I put as much on my nose as I do on my cheeks then I will wake up with VERY oily tzone, I can't use it during the day because It makes your face a bit "sticky" which doesn't do well with powders
Bottom line I prefer this to regular moisturizer because it feels more lightweight and less greasy

Great for sleeping

"relieves" your skin

Pros tightens skin and shrinks pore/pimples OVERNIGHT!
Cons Makes skin very dry and bad looking. Doesn't do much for red marks.
Bottom line I use this when I get the occasional pimple and when my pores are clogged. It works SO quickly...small pimples usually fade over night and big ones only take a few days. It's GREAT in that respect. But unfortunately it didn't help me with my red marks, which is what I originally purchased it for. Real bummer, but it works for active acne, so I can't complain too much. :)

Pros From what I hear it gets rid of redness quickly (I'm black). I've also noticed my acne reducing.
Cons When it dries it feels tight on your face for a few minutes.
Bottom line This product is not a budget buster and works very well for the price.

Pros Cools the skin, soothes redness quickly, lightly moisturizes and tones the skin a little bit and doesn't leave any greasy or shiny residue. Creates a barrier to protect the skin and it's also great to use after sunburn/sun exposure.
Cons Takes a while to absorb and can sting eyes if put too close.
Bottom line I've been using this stuff on and off for a long time now. I don't use it daily, however a few times a week usually. This stuff comes in handy often. Don't expect this stuff to cure acne or scars. It will give most people a better overall appearance of the skin and help tone and moisturize but as for active inflamed acne, whiteheads or scars it's not really for that. It may however smooth the scars out, making them look a little better and make acne appear less red and inflamed but it won't actually "cure" it, although I've heard rare cases of people finding it useful for acne, it did not do that for me. Still though, this stuff protects the skin very well and heals irritated, damaged and dried skin. Oh, and the best time to use it is definitely after exfoliation of any kind.

Pros It feels nice and cool on the skin. It has no fragrance or leaves any residue.
Cons It burns if you get it near the eyes. It does not have any effect on acne or scars.
Bottom line It hasn't done what everyone else claims it to do. Of course, it could just be my skin. It doesn't even reduce redness for me though.
