Testimonial

Last night I used the Aloe Vera on my lower back and wow it worked. I also put some on my husband's elbow and hand due to the skin being think (age). It was purple purple and looked like a blood blister and this morning, oh my goodness, what a difference. Thanks so much.

An overseas guest suggested aloe vera gel for my sons for their pimples/acne. I was going to visit a dermatologist but decided to try aloe vera first by chance I visited a market where you were selling your aloe vera gel. My sons used it for a week & to my pleasant surprise there was a huge improvement. The acne lightened and the skin looked much brighter. I will definitely recommend this before going the medication or harsh skin route.
