I had heard of this stuff before but was a little hesitant to apply "plant juice" to my face. Anyway, here's just a brief version of my story: Have mild breakouts every so often (most of the time around my period...screw hormonal imbalances!)or when I'm tense. I also tend to burn very badly. So I saw the Aloe Vera gel in a drugstore and decided to try it...you know, seeing as it was only abou 5 dollars. Woot. I must tell you, this is the only thing I've put on my face that significantly reduces the redness in my cheeks and the shiny-ness. I have not had a breakout in over 2 months (which is when I began using it)unless I eat too much sugar. I don't know what the hell they put in this stuff but it works. I apply it to my face every night and morning. It feels nice buttt might sting the eyes a bit...so beware. I <3 aloe vera gel...don't know what I would do without it (perhaps be spending 20+ dollars on "miracle" products from some dude in the mall named Michele). I love waking up and not having to stare at giant red marks on my face. Oh 'tis lovely.

i had this big red swelling pimple on my face and i decided to try this product. i washed my face gently and applied the gel gently onto the pimple and a few minutes later the swelling was gone and the pimple flattened! great stuff! it is so much better than BP and SA!

Wooowww....after using it for 1 week, for the first time in ages, I've had no new breakouts !! My skin looks even & the redness is fading. Still have some scars from all the acne I've had all those years. I can't believe it, this stuff works really well. I will stick to it...believe me. Why didn't anyone tell me sooner ?...<grin> NO more oil & grease on my face..

I use Aloe Vera 98% in combination with Proactiv Combination treatment and it works very good for me. My skin looks better than it ever did and feels very soft.

I tried the 98% aloe vera which also contains comfrey, cucumber and chamomille. I also bought the fruit of the earth brand. This stuff really works well. I had been trying sooo many other products and literally overnight I had a huge reduction in inflammation and tightening of my pores. So far Ive had no side effects. I highly recommend this product.

Didn't do a damn thing! Its funny it says 100% but it has all this other stuff in it. The other chemicals bothered my skin because the one straight from the plant worked wonders. No it does cure your acne right away, but it does help. This fruit of the earth sucks. Get the real deal from plant people!

oh my goddddd!!!!!!!! this stuff works like magic!!!! i put it on my backne (acne on your back) and on my face one night and woke up to 50% LESS acne than before! THis was on the first night!!!!!!! even this one stubborn little pimple that wouldn't go away after three months, i saw i get A LOT BETTER!!! a week later all of my backne was gone and ready for my bikinni! perfect!

aloe vera is great... i apply it twice daily after cleansing morning and night.. go to my regime on:

anyway yer.. it has greatly improved my acne.. reduces redness and heals like 5x quicker! i use fruit of the earth brand 6oz. its so cheap and only 7 ingredients! i mean the other products i was using had over 20 ingredients and thats redicoulous. i have been using it for nearly 14 weeks, and do research on aloe vera.. you'll be amazed in what it can do...

This stuff is GREAT. Swelling of active acne went down.... redness from ance and accutane reduced! For $3 a bottle you can't really beat it!
No harsh smell, not much needed, clear and great for use any time!
Huge thumbs up for me!

I have been using this at night for a few days now instead of a typical moisturizer. It makes my face a little red, but it is gone by morning. It seems to really tighten up my pores and works like nothing else to control my oil slick. However, while it is on my face, it really highlights my large pores and uneven skin tone, so I only wear it at night. It does feel really tight on your face for a few hours, so it is hard to imagine that it is moisturizing, but I don't experience any flaking while wearing this. So, it must be working. It also seems to heal blemish scarring much faster than a regular moisturizer.

FYI... this is really good as a primer for deoderant as well. Ever since having my son my hormones are a wreck and no matter how much deoderant I put on, I smell awful within a couple of hours. With this on, I can go the whole day without radiating a stinch! :-)
