Pros dries up very well and leaves skin feeling super naturally moisturized does not have that oily feeling that makes your face look shiny. it is not reactive and will calm your skin no matter what shape it's in. great to use after a harsh facial wash
Cons will feel slimy and gooey when applying but only temporarily, after a minute it will dry!!!
Bottom line USE THIS, IVE USED ALMOST ALL KIND OF MOISTURIZER INCLUDING AVEENO and even the lightest moisturizer cetaphil, this stuff can't compare to aloe vera moisurizer, if you can't find this product in your store: consider buying a walgreen aloe vera version same ingredients. be sure to buy the fragrance and alcohol free one

Pros Cheap, effective, easy to apply, gives a nice cooling effect while it dries.
Cons Does make skin feel a bit tight.
Bottom line Stuff that really does work. I have moderate-severe acne and I have noticed a big change in my skin tone since I've been using this product. My skin tone was quite horrible before using this product and I have noticed the redness from my face has improved greatly as well. It is cheap and easy to use; however, this gel does make the face feel slightly tight which is not much of an issue, at least to me. I have oily skin and have noticed no peeling/flaking and this gel really helps keep my oil down, which is another plus. I have been using this with tea tree oil and my acne is much, much better.
Price paid $3.59

Pros My skin texture has improved so much. it is much smoother and clearer. Heals up pimples real quickly. Its great when used after home microdermabrasion or exfoliation as it heals up the skin and soothes.
Cons Slightly sticky when first applied but this is temporary.
Bottom line I absolutely love it. When i'm at home i use it as a moisturizer and nothing else. its non-greasy and especially good for redness from pimples that are healing.

Pros None
Cons Please, be careful and read the list of ingredients !
Bottom line Thanks to Susan ...
TETRASODIUM EDTA and other stuff listed are harmful ingredient,

The best aloe vera gel I have found is : JAMIESON ALOE VERA, the Clear one is PURE (not the green one)

Here's a good website if like me you'd like to know before you use a product for the potential hazard of mysterious chemicals we have put on our face : [link removed]>
Took me year to find that kind of information, so it's a pleasure to share with others ...

Pros works very, very well with my oily skin. i recommend it 100%
Cons a little too dry at times, itches when you put it on your body (a moisturizer is still needed afterwards)
Bottom line this stuff is awesome. i paid $5 for it at CVS. it's really simple and clean, doesn't make me feel like a ton of stuff is on my face. after the first couple days of use i felt my pimples go down a little bit, they were a lot less inflamed. since then i've started using it on my chest and back, where i have some hyperpigmentation spots from old acne. the aloe gel helps fade scars and some trouble spots. i've also started to use it to moisturize my arms and legs, i've noticed that my skin has become a lot smoother (especially the backs of my arms).

it is a little gloopy but it dries fast and has absolutely no fragrance.

Pros It works!!! I'm hoping that this stuff will dramatically improve my skin tone and remove those nasty blemishes. I use it in conjunction with sudocrem which contains zinc oxide, BP and beeswax - all brilliant for clearing up those nasty spots!!
Cons Very gloopy; could not go out wearing it. Taughtening sensation on the skin.
Bottom line Rather than using aloe vera from a bottle I have bought my very own plant which is much cheaper!! All you need to do is cut of a little bit of one of the leaves and then you squeeze out the gloop (which looks exactly like the gel you get in packets)and apply it to your face. That way you know the aloe is 100% natural and fresh - which surely must be better!!!

Pros Not greasy! Cheap, lasts forever.
Cons If you get it too close to your eyes they might sting.
Bottom line I have tried many moisturizers, with and with out SPF, and they all make my skin break out. I slather aloe on my face before I go to bed at night and it never makes me break out. Also, other moisturizers look greasy even when they say it's oil-free, non-greasy.

I started using aloe on my beach vacation and months later I am still using it daily! Works great all over the body too, especially on legs/shoulders!
