What is it, and what does it claim to do?

Organic Aloe Pura Aloe Vera Gel. A clear gel in a large tube. It is for external use, for application to irritated skin. I also use it to protect my skin after bathing, and as a moisturiser.

Application

I have various stretch marks on my chest due to growth spurts in puberty, and a few scars that I have acquired over the years over my body. I hoped that this gel would be able to soften, moisturise and generally provide my skin with a bit of loving, without too many chemicals, frangrances and colours.

Reading up on aloe vera, I found out that the highest % pure aloe vera that you can get is the best for doing the job it claims to. I settled on this product because it seemed to be the most natural one on offer, with a high percentage of the magical Aloe Barbadensis.

I love this product. Applying to skin it starts to dry quickly. This temporarily produces a tightening feeling on your skin but when it's settled in, the smoothness is astounding. I love how it makes my (often dry) legs feel, and what is more, the effects appear to last beyond just the day. I feel that my arms and chest are much much smoother and moisturised than prior to using this product.

The consistency is great. It is a clear gel, and applies cleanly, sinking in easily and quickly. I have had issues with other moisturisers making me feel greasy but this is absolutely wonderful. It is an absolute essential for my body, and I would always choose it over other moisturisers. Rather than feeling like I'm applying something cooked up in a lab, I feel like I'm treating my skin to a pleasant helping hand.

Being a woman who likes to shave, also, it is extremely handy for after shaving application - it soothes and restores very well.

I have also used this product overnight, as a sort of face mask-esque application. I applied it heavily, so that there was a clear feeling of wearing something on my skin, and washed it off in the morning. My skin seemed to like it!

Price

I bought this product for the first time a few years ago, when I read about the benefits of Aloe Vera on the skin, especially for scars, blemishes and irritations. Being £4.99, I thought that I may as well give it a go. (In the time that I've been purchasing it, it sometimes comes up on offer too, with about a pound off.)

Any additional details

One disadvantage is that your skin may not agree with it. I recently used a little on my mother, and it made her skin red and hot. So, test it before slathering your whole body with it.

If you have any questions on this product, please don't hesitate to ask. I will be happy to try to answer your query as soon as I can.

Happy Shopping!
