Allurials Pure Aloe Vera Gel
I like to get the Aloe Vera gel straight from the plant. However, it always goes bad before I can use it all. Therefore, I prefer to use the gel form more as it lasts a lot longer. I use the Allurials Pure Aloe Vera Gel since it’s made from U.S. grown organic cold-pressed aloe. I really like how this one is alcohol and fragrance-free since many aloe vera gels contain these ingredients. Orders are shipped the next day. Note: it’s for external use only

Girl I love aloe vera. I use it daily 🙂
