Review (4/5): Aloe Vera Gel
The description for this Aloe Vera Gel by CIMIY Skin Care confuses me a little. One of the uses suggested by the manufacturer is to put the gel on before going outside, “which can protect skin from sunburns.” This gel has hyaluronic acid listed as an ingredient, which can actually make skin even more sensitive to UV rays.
Aloe Vera is great for soothing sunburns *after* exposure. This gel absorbed into my skin after about a minute, without leaving behind a sticky or tacky feeling. I’ve used some aloe vera gels that have left me a sticky mess, but not this one. So I like the quick absorption.
The gel does have a slight scent to it. It’s a fresh-smelling scent that sticks around for a while.
This Aloe Vera gel would also be great for homemade hand sanitizer.
This gel is manufactured in China.
