Give it a try
Wanted to give this a good rating, ive decided to incorporate it into my skincare after noticing it manages my oily skin really well without over moisturising or undernoursihing it. I dunno if its a combination of taking zinc, vitamin a and probiotics as well birth control but rcently my skin has been pretty good, pimple here and there. most is hyperpigmentation. The aloe vera really does take the redness out and leaves the skin feeling pretty supple too. I'm going to continue using it to reverse some dehydration lines from using benzoyl and maybe ill do another review to update my progress!

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:
Helped heal scars, decreased amount of blackheads, makes skin feel softer when when washed off, makes skin look healthier, lessened overall amount of zits, makes skin look less red.
Cons:
Stings eyes if it gets in of near them, sticky for the first 5 or so minutes, it doesn't soak into skin very well
My friend told me that aloe helped improve her skin, so i tried it. It doesn't completely treat acne but it definately helps make my skin look better. I recently went on vacation and stopped using it for a couple of days and within a few days of stopping, i had a lot of blackheads that i hadn't had while using aloe. I feel a lot more confident after using aloe on my skin (in combination with topical salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide) and seeing the results. My skin is a lot smoother now. I get less blackheads, which means i have less temptation to pop zits (because there are less of them) and therefore i have less red spots on my face. Aloe also heals my skin really fast if i happen to give into the temptation of sqeezing zits. It helps heal old acne scars too. My skin looks a lot healthier and pretty now.
So, it may not totally treat acne but it does improve the general quality and apperance of skin.

Moisturized a little
Works good as a moisturizing serum but my skin normally needs more moisture added then this offers. After I wash my face I use aloe Vera then a light moisturizer on top like derma e purifying moisturizer.

Pros:
cheap, helps heal acne scabs or popped zits
Cons:
contains known cancer causing chemicals and skin irritants, does not prevent new acne, can actually cause minor breakouts
This product works to some extent. Personally, this gel helped to quickly heal popped blemishes, however it caused other blemishes to appear. If used solely on the spot itself, it can help reduce redness, but when I used it all over my face, I noticed an increase in acne that stopped once I stopped using it all over. I'm also not fond of the ingredients. If you google the other ingredients, you'll find that they can be EXTREMELY hazardous - they can cause tumors and skin irritation. Even if this product proves successful for some people, it is still dangerous. I feel that if you use a product that is more natural, like aloe vera straight from the plant or an organic product, like Lily of the Desert, it's a lot less likely to cause skin problems or the minor breakouts that may be associated with Fruit of the Earth.

Pros:
1. No smell
2. The product is clear so it doesn't show when I go outside
3. Leaves the skin soft
Cons:
The aloe was sticky at first, but the stickiness went away after a few minutes and made my skin very soft. Other than that this is a great product.
Within a week my acne lessened! I use to use on the spot acne treatments, but it made the skin around the pimple dry and red, but aloe leaves my skin soft and smooth. Of course aloe doesn't cure acne, but it is the best treatment I have used. Aloe is also great for dry skin, scars, burns and hair gel. I love this product and recommend it to anyone.

Pros:
It moisturizes without feeling oily. It heals sore spots and pimples fast. After using it for a month, I found I was getting less pimples as well.
Cons:
Around my time of the month, I have to add BP 2.5% to my routine, or else I'll break out.
If you aren't careful to read the label, it's easy to accidentally pick up an Aloe Gel that has alcohol in it. Those can make your skin red and dry, and
If you have bad acne, I'd suggest trying a routine that's basically Gentle Facial Wash + BP + Aloe Vera both morning and night. If you have moderate acne, I'd suggest Gentle Facial Wash + Aloe Vera in the morning, and Gentle Facial Wash + BP (+/- Aloe Vera) at night. Just make sure you get an Aloe Vera that 99-100% pure, with no alcohol in it!

Healthy & Healing
I bought this product from Walmart. This is my current skin care routine using this product:
AM: CeraVe foaming cleanser, Organic argan oil, birth control
PM: CeraVe foaming cleanser (with konjac sponge to remove powder foundation), Aloe vera gel on spots and on nose for pores. I have found that this product helps my skin look healthier and plumper. It also helps flatten out and heal my acne, but I wouldn't say it is a miracle product for me. However, it really has done pretty well for the price, and it feels very gentle. It will burn your eyes if you put it near your cheekbones, but I find that I can put big globs on at night on my cheeks with NO irritation.
If you are using harsh products with no good results, I would recommend this. I always recommend a gentler routine, and this definitely helps my skin!

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!
