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!

Such an important supplement to acne treatment!
Did aloe alone cure my acne? No. But it definitely was an important factor to clearing my skin. I used to get painful cystic acne on my cheeks which I've now found out is because of my inflammatory response to stimuli (sensitive skin) which is also linked to my eczema as well. I would rub aloe on after applying my benzoyl peroxide. Aloe is known for its anti inflammatory response and healing qualities. The aloe soothed my skin and allowed for my acne treatment to work faster and also prevent scars. My skin cleared dramatically in a month and it's not only smooth but I have no flakes and dry skin problems like many people seem to suffer from using benzoyl peroxide daily.

Did you use the gel from the aloe vera plant? Did it reduce redness if you had any/ did it increase redness if you didn't have any? Thank you!

Great treatment
A lot of other people will try to get you to buy aloe vera in products but honestly having it straight off the leaf is the way to go cause it's not diluted and retains much more of it's healing properties. I started using it just for help on a really bad sunburn but after a few days the burn was completely gone and no peeling at all. I was amazed so I started using it on razor burn and acne around my nose and night. The results are astounding I recommend trying it 2-3 times a day for at least a few days before you shoot this one down

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.

Cons:
Leaves a weird thing
It worked well for me my acne is slowly clearing up and I apply it topically to big noticeable pimples

Pros:
appearance of wrinkles. Diazolidinyl urea- a preservative- is another potentially toxic ingredient, is an allergen to certain people. DMDM Hydantoid- a safer preservative- and Tocopheryl Acetate- closely related to Vitamin E- are the only favourable ingredients.
Ingredients aside, the gel feels very cold when initially placed upon skin. You will also find that the gel tends to create a hard layer which can be washed off. That layer can only be the remaining chemicals- it lacks any sour taste
Cons:
suggesting that the aloe vera has indeed sunk in.
To be specific, I have been using this product on a nightly basis for 4 months and have seen no results. The product's moisturizing effect is nowhere to be seen/felt, any beneficial qualities of the aloe vera within are also nowhere to be found.
The product is cheap and rightfully so- $20 for a value pack of which I haven't even used a quarter of. The price is perhaps the one redeeming quality of an otherwise unsatisfactory product.
Fruit of the Earth- Aloe Vera is a Texas-based product comprised of six ingredients, and does not specify the quantity of any. The Aloe content is debatable- pure aloe has a strong acidic taste. The lack of said taste in this product is the only thing suggestive towards the amount of Aloe Vera within.
Triethanolamine is apparently toxic and is the most likely candidate for the stinging effect I receive from placing this product too close to my eyes. Tetrasodium EDTA can apparently speed the

Pros:
Smoother Skin
Less Redness
Helped heal extracted pimples quickly
Cons:
CONTAINS DMDM HYDANTOIN
Wrecked havoc on my already severe acne
Gave me hundreds and hundreds of tiny white bumps coating my entire face-forehead to chin, cheek to cheek.
I completely changed my skin care routine mid-summer because my skin was having a severe breakout and I was desperate to find something that worked. I began using fruit of the earth aloe vera gel (along with other things) on top of or underneath my moisturizer, morning and night. At first my skin because to heal rapidly. Then I began to develop tiny white bumps across my forehead, which alarmed me, but I assumed it was from the heat. They quickly spread in less than a week to coating my entire face. In desperation I switched out every single one of my new products for old, trusted ones EXCEPT the aloe vera, because I thought there was no way it could be causing it because it's 'all natural.' .....I know better than that. But for some reason, I was clueless this time, and continued using the aloe vera until FINALLY weeks later I had a moment of enlightenment and stopped using it. The bumps dissapeared completely in a week. My pimples finally began to improve. A few weeks later I ran out of brow gel so I lightly brushed some aloe through them (hoping I could get some use out of the remaining product.) A few short days later I had two eyebrows full of little white bumps and four pimples. Wtf. From the ingredients list, I can only assume it's from the DMDM hydantoin (known irritant. unnecessary in aloe.) Anyway, if you're not sensitive to the DMDM hydantoin then you're probably fine. If not, save your money and buy actual 100% Aloe Vera gel. Because this stuff has additives that it really does not need !!!!

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:
Smooth
Cleared Acne
