Pros:

If you scratched a pimple, put this on! It won't leave a huge scar after. Good for scars in general. Good for calming your skin as well.

Cons:

Takes a long time to see the effects.
Doesn't stop pimples from forming.

Use it for your scars mainly. You won't see results right off the bat, but if you continue to use it, results will come. I started using it maybe 2 months ago and I'm starting to see my scars SLOWLY fading. This is no miracle product for your acne or scars, but its good for the health of your skin regardless. Just take a leaf off the plant and apply the gel to your whole face!

Pros:

powerful healing agent that heals quickly without leaving scars

Cons:

none

this review is for aloe life skin gel. i made the mistake of trying to extract 2 blackheads myself and ended up scraping and scratching up my face. i was devastated because i thought i had possibly scarred my face for life. i was also kicking myself because i knew better. at any rate- i asked a few different pharmacists what i should use on the areas and they all said neosporin. i have very sensitive skin and didnt feel comfortable applying neosporin to my face. after doing some research online i opted to try aloe vera gel. aloe life has a gel that is very close to the real plant. no water added. i used this stuff and in 2 days the abrasion on my face was completely gone!! i was amazed! my face looks better than it did before. blackheads completely gone, scabs gone, no scarring. this is great stuff!!!

Perfect for mild acne!!
It works brilliantly on mild acne and even though it takes longer time than otc products to clear acne, but the redness disappears and controls my breakouts. I have also noticed my scars get lighter and i definitely recommend using aloe vera on your skin. IT WORKS!!

Pros:

it makes my skin super smoooth, when i wake up in the morning my face is glowing, it lightens the uneven skin tones on my face

Cons:

after a while when i put it on it starts to dry out my face BADLY.

i dont know why it dries out my face i've read a whole lot of reviews and none of them said anything about your face becoming dry[it feels like i have a clay mask on]. keep in mind that i use the actual aloe plant that grows in my backyard. if anyone reads this pleaseee help me because i want to know if i am doing something wrong or if this is normal??? but other than that i LOVE using aloe!!!

Pros:

Dried up my oily skin, helped to heal the 'popped' zits & minimize the cysts

Cons:

didn't prevent me from getting new pimples

A great way to keep your skin from getting oily. I use it as a mattifier. I have several of the plants in my yard that I pick off off, so the price is nothing!

Pros:

I grow it in my yard, so it's free. It works wonderfully in the summer when your face is very dry.

Cons:

Didn't touch my acne but I think it may have minimized my scarring.

Try it, it won't hurt!

Pros:

Used at night after washing my face for about 2 weeks, and I started clearing up within the first week

Cons:

THe little thorns can poke you when you pick up a leaf but thats pretty much it.

It works better than all those fancy 50 dallor chemicals.
