How to
Apply Pure Aloe as a Moisturizer:
Aloe alone can make a great, clean substitute for your everyday moisturizer whenever you’re running low or looking for a new alternative.
Freshly harvested gel can be applied directly to the skin or stored overnight in the fridge so it’s ready for you in the morning!
Once you have your gel, just rub pieces of the gel over your skin in a thin layer. It may feel a bit slimy, but it shouldn’t be heavy. You can also apply to the lips for extra hydration. Allow the gel to dry, then apply your makeup as usual! Repeat twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening after washing your face, for the best results.
