Final Verdict:
Aloe vera gels are just amazing and serve as multi-purpose gels from moisturiser to soothe all kinds of skin irritations.They are suitable from babies to adults.They don't burn a hole in the pocket either.There are many aloe vera gels in the market but so far I have liked only two brands: Aloe veda Aloe vera Skin Nourishing Gel and Rustic Art Aloe vera gels.
I have used almost 5 tubs of Rustic Art Aloe vera gels and I can honestly say they are really good.I also like they are many other variants.The Peach & Avocado Aloe vera gel is equally good too.I use them as facial moisturisers.They are great for oily-acne prone skin and for summers.I also use them after shaving/waxing to soothe the skin and as hand/body cream.Except for the price,I find Rustic Art Aloe vera gels really good.
