so last night i decided to apply aloe vera (the plant) onto my face overnight as i have read that it is very beneficial to acne and scaring and reduces inflammation. when i woke up though, i had a new pimple but i thought nothing of it, it was only one in a common area where i break out. as i went on with my day, my face got oiler than usual. (and yes i did wash my face and moisturized when i woke up). by the end of the day, i had so many new pimples, even in areas in which i dont break out. i even have one in the bags of my eyes. i didnt even know i could get pimples there. is the aloe vera really causing a breakout ? or is it something else ? i havent done any other change to my routine. can the plant really break you out?
This happened to me too a few years ago, I used directly from the plant on a massive breakout, and the area became more irritated and inflamed. The raw natural form is too potent for direct use, especially on an already severe skin condition like acne. It's fine to use if it diluted in other ingredients.
Try raw natural papaya right from the fruit! It worked miracles for me 
Here are a couple links, but there's tons more info about the positive effects of papaya on acne
Good luck xx
