Basic Nutrition : Aloe Vera Herbal Extract

I HAD severe acne(cystic) in which created many scars (pitted)-absolutely hate it!. It affected my confidence level down to 1 it seemed! I tried just about everything I could possibly imagine! Along w/new Acnefree severe skin treatment fr walmrt, I used aloe gel to heal redness and scars. Also used cider vinager to kill bacteria (really helps) and used homemade exfoliant (baking soda-not baking powder) to shed off old skin to treat my skin. I went all out. I also used a clay mask for oily skin (biore-) 3 times/wk to reduce oil. I had to used tons of daily regiments just for the stupid sh*** to jump off my face! I also take Vitamin B5 / Pantothenic Acid daily. The daily regiments worked. I had to do some major research! The bottom line is Aloe vera gel is helping my scars become less red and the healing process of old acne breakouts are going away! My poors are less visible as well, the aloe tightens my skin! it sounds like a lot but it cured my severe acne. Good luck!!!! I'm happy!

After suffering from acne for many years, my mother told me to just try aloe vera. I have been rubbing pure aloe vera plant every night and see no difference in my skin. My acne and scars are still there and my skin still looks the same!

It works! Just buy a plant, you won't waste your money!

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!!!

i've done research online regarding aloe and acne. and they say its not a total acne treatment. but hey it does works wonders. my skin conditon looks clearer, less breakouts, less oily and definately made a happier me. also use a toner after and clay mask a few times a week.

it works better than any other acne treatment iv'e used...you'll gain healthy skin *PROACTIVE IS JUST lIKE THE REST OF THE OTHER ACNE TREATMENTS, NOT RECOMMENDED*

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!

aloe definitely works...i used it prety consistently some 6 months back for like a month or so...n it helped...but then left it coz i thot i shud try retin a coz i thot it mite work faster...bad decision...retin a does work but after scarring the skin badly..n then, it just stops workin after sometime.. so now i'm back to fresh aloe.i just started it again today..will hav to see how soon i start seein improvements...i apply it and eat a spoonful too...will report my progress in a week's time...

I don't use the gel directly from the plant, but I buy Aubrey Organics Pure Aloe Vera. It comes in a 6oz bottle, which you refrigerate after opening. It is worth every penny because you don't have to use very much at all. I squirt a little on a cotton ball and gently rub all over my face at night. It didn't completely get rid of my acne by itself, I had to combine that with Aztec Healing Clay masks a few times a week. However, it speeds healing of existing acne and reduces redness. You can also mix this aloe in anything you want-- masks, creams, lotions, etc.

I used to break out a little bit on my forehead and I decided to use Proactiv. It actually made a skin clear but once I stopped the regimen, my face was literally covered in pimples. It got real bad real fast! I tried chinese herbs, Differin gel, and antibiotics. But they didn't work, so I decided to give nature a shot. And the aloe works wonders! I have been putting aloe on my face every night and my face is actually clearing up! Its even healing stubborn acne! I recommend it to everyone!! IT WORKS, GIVE IT A TRY!
