Great for soothing and reducing redness and dark spots!
I have been using this product because it has 98% all natural ingredients. I just rub a little bit onto the area that is hyper-pigmented and scarred after washing with CeraVe cleanser at night. I have been using for 3 weeks or so and have seen an improvement in the overall texture of my skin and the dark area is lightning. Give it a shot! You won't be disappointed!

Good product
It's a good product...I'm somewhat confused by it though. It seems to be moisturizing and drying at the same time. I feel like it calms down the sore acne, but when it dries, it has a tightening effect. I'm not sure if it would be a strong enough moisturizer if used with BP. Also, it is hard to wash off. It is very thick and slimy when you put water on it to remove it.

Pros:

reduced redness
moisturizes
good as "carrier oil"

Cons:

makes your face a little sticky and cold for a bit
a little goes a LONG way

It works. It's the ONLY thing that I have tried that didn't make things worse, that actually helped get rid of my scars and redness. And it moisturizes without clogging my pores, a huge plus. And I think it may be preventing future acne from forming or helping the acne I do have heal, because I haven't had any problems with acne since I started using it. But also of note is that I dab on my tea tree oil treatment beforehand as well then add some of this to moisturize accordingly. I found this specific gel in Costa Rica (I happened to be visiting) and wanted to give it a good review since I didn't find any generic aloe reviews. If it's important to anyone, here are the ingredients: freshly harvested organic aloe infusion and pup, organic botanical extracts, agar-agar (red seaweed gelatin), vegetable gylcerin, aromatic mix of tropical fruit essential oils, carbomer, grapefruit seed extract, and sodium benzoate (preservative)

Pros:

-cheap
-lightens scars (after long time use...)
- light

Cons:

- dries out face
- isn't exactly all natural

At first I was very excited to use this product - in the end, i face mixed results. though it has lightened my scars, it hasnt lightened them as much as i had hoped for... in addition to this, i noticed an increase of blackheads on my left cheek (which was originally clear, but now has black spots all over :-() though i am disappointed by its cons, it has made my skin much smoother and has toned out the areas a bit. I'd also recommend applying Benozyl Peroxide after the gel has settled... Adds an extra boost. Using this alone would be best for people facind light acne. For moderate, definitely use something along with it.

Pros:

Aloe has much the same genetic structure as humans, so it is extremely beneficial to the healing process of scars
It feels cooling and soothing
Very natural remedy that has been in use for hundreds of years
You can even have your own aloe plant as a source

Cons:

Makes skin feel tight (which feels bizarre)
May clog pores and cause blackheads

I really like using aloe on skin rashes, irritation, etc as it is extremely soothing. It helps cool the skin and encourages you not to scratch if you are having problems with itchiness. However, it does leave the skin feeling tight which in my opinion is a bad thing - its a weird feeling that is hard to accurately describe unless the other person you are describing it to has experienced it as well. It clogged my pores a bit, though, which wasn't helpful. I suppose you could use it as a spot treatment on scars - gently smoothing it onto the scar and moving your fingers circularly may be beneficial because the aloe would naturally help heal and the movement would generate some circulation which stimulates the skin cells to get movin'. However if you are rough you will cause more irriation. Bottom line is be careful.

Pros:

-Reduces Redness
-Doesn't Cause Breakouts
-Gentle
-Fragrance Free
-Colorless
-Non irritating
-Cheap. HUGE bottle for only 12 bucks
-Non-greasy matte finish

Cons:

-Had to buy online
-Doesn't reduce all redness, but i doubt anything does

If your looking for aloe vera gel GET THIS. Unlike other aloe vera gels this one is colorless, fragrance free, good for acne prone skin, gentle, etc. I don't apply it straight to my face. I mix it into my moisturizer (cerave cream and lotion) and apply that mixture morning and night. i just apply the aloe vera gel after moisturizing to my nose or cheeks if they are extra red. It defiantly reduces redness. its non-greasy. doesn't irritate my skin. i recommend it to any who wants to reduce redness especially if they are on accutane (like me) or any topical acne treatments. I gave it a 4 just because its not perfect

Pros:

Very soothing for the skin after it has been irritated by acne, sunburn, picking, redness etc.

Does NOT clog pores and therefore does not cause acne.

It is an okay moisturizer.

Cons:

Makes face shiny and sticky. It's not a miracle but I really love this stuff.

Surprisingly helps reduce zits a bit. Some more than others. Greatly reduces redness of zits. It will not do much for old red or brown marks though but it certainly wont hurt. Works for so many things so it's always great to have it around.
