I was a distributor for Forever Living Products,USA for their range of products based on aloe vera. Looks like many companies are getting into this business.
-
Oh, it is! It is actually a really popular trend in Korean skincare these days and I noticed some online sellers spike the prices on these tubs, especially during summer. I am lucky I found a suitable product for my skin minus the overwhelming price tag.

I have good things about the Aloe Vera gal it has some really good benefits when you think about it. Sometimes am really scared of ordering anything to did with my body online. I always have these thoughts that they might not be genuine products. They could work or not work out for you. But all in all I think people are different so it could happen either way. I have Aloe Vera grown in my garden and I sometimes use it on my face as a face mask and the results are fantastic so I agree with you on this.

Oh, if only I have a potted aloe vera plant – I wouldn’t buy these, too! We had a pot at my parents’ house and used it extensively on my scalp since I had thin hair as a child. I also try to do some DIY skincare regimen but can’t use a lot of those (or do everything DIY) since I don’t use too much and it would end up getting spoiled if unused.

I don’t use very many skincare products. But I know for certain that the ones with aloe vera are good. Some are better than others.

I know what you mean. My husband is the same that he rarely tries new products or always sticks to the ones he has been using for a long time. I am just lucky this brand suits my skin and didn’t cause me any damage!

Aloe vera have been one of the no secrets beauty regimen but with lots of beauty products sprouting in the market, it has not been used lately. But in our place, women use it in practical way, they have some pots of aloe vera plant and they once in a while I see them harvesting some good leaves for their beauty regimen.

I think that’s what Asian beauty (Korean skincare in particular) is after: they want to bring back the more natural ways to take care of our skin using these natural ingredients and mix it with modern technology. I think it is good!

It’s good for burn and great for your skin.

Haven’t tried to put it on sun burnt skin but I can just imagine the feeling! I love using this as face mask when the weather is really warm and does a great deal to my skin to freshen up!

Aloe vera is a popular medicinal plant that has been used for thousands of years.It is best known for treating skin injuries, but also has several other beneficial effects on health. Aloe vera is a thick, short-stemmed plant that stores water in its leaves.
It is widely used in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical and food industries, and has an estimated annual market value of $13 billion globally (1).
Aloe vera is well recognized by its thick, pointed and fleshy green leaves, which can grow to about 12-19 inches (30-50 cm) in length. Each leaf is full of a slimy tissue that stores water, which makes the leaves thick. This slimy, water-filled tissue is the “gel” we associate with Aloe vera products. The gel contains most of the bioactive compounds in the plant, including vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants.
Antioxidants are important for health.
Aloe vera gel contains powerful antioxidants, which belong to a large family of substances known as polyphenols
These polyphenols, along with several other compounds in Aloe vera, can help inhibit the growth of certain bacteria that can cause infections in humans, Aloe vera is most commonly used as a topical medication, rubbed onto the skin rather than eaten.
It has long been known as a treatment for sores, particularly burns, including sunburns.
In fact, the FDA first approved Aloe vera ointment as an over-the-counter medication for skin burns back in 1959.
Studies suggest that it is an effective topical treatment for first- and second-degree burns.
A review of 4 experimental studies found that Aloe vera could reduce the healing time of burns by around 9 days compared to conventional medication
The evidence for Aloe vera helping to heal other types of wounds is inconclusive, Tooth decay and diseases of the gum are very common health problems.
One of the best ways to prevent this from happening is to reduce the buildup of plaque (bacterial biofilms) on the teeth.
In a mouth rinse study of 300 healthy people, 100% pure Aloe vera juice was compared to the standard mouthwash ingredient chlorhexidine.
After 4 days of use, the Aloe vera mouth rinse was found to be just as effective as chlorhexidine in reducing dental plaque
Another study found similar benefits of Aloe vera mouth rinse when used over a 15- to 30-day period
Aloe vera does this by killing the plaque-producing bacterium Streptococcus mutans in the mouth, as well as the yeast Candida albicans

I damn fed up using these skin care product. I am having dry skin and during summer the face will become lifeless. I have been searching for good skin care product. Finally, Patanjali Yoga Center has advised me to dispense with this product and go for natural herbal products which I am using now.
The skin care products are suitable only for some people and are not suitable for each and everyone as a universal rule and such product is not designed so far.
I generally apply curd and honey and prepare my own pack and this will be a very nice product for the skin. I will explain it separately in my post. -
I like to share the Aloe Vera hydro gel.My grandparents told me that Aloe Vera juice I meant the liquid came from Aloe Vera is good to apply for the face to get all the acne or to make the face looking beautiful..

No producers that telecast their programmes on tv would be happy with me as I hardly do justice to their efforts. I have much too much to spare time to spend it in front of the tv. I truly envy you.
Oh I’m not really in front of a TV. I’m on my laptop. ( My husband is a TV hogger. 🙂 But he’s a nice TV hogger. 🙂 ) The good thing about is that I can work between two browsers. One browser has my show that I’m watching. The other has my work that I’m doing. The sites I’m using have advertisements. When they break for the ads I can switch over and do some work. I also switch in between because it breaks up the boredom of my daily work routine.
Most of the time though, I try to wait until after my work day is done before I treat myself to the luxury of binge watching. On a holiday (because my family would get upset if I worked!) or on a self-imposed “day off” (where I just have to take a break from my labors), I might just lie around the house watching a show. It’s my way of treating myself for being a good worker. I earned it! 🙂
If I can remember back in th3 days when we only got to watch tv in the evenings for like two hours then we are told to go to bed by our parents because the following day was a school day. The only time we could watch tv from the afternoon was on the weeknds because there was no school then. When I finsished school I was free to watch tv until midnight so I would watch all the movie that came on and the could only run for a maximum of two hours that was the longest becaus the tv stations used to close at twelve midnight, there was no 24 hour tv station those days. When th3 digital are came by we are now on full swing but the urge of watching tv is not there anymore. There is too much to be done where will the time to watch tv come from when you come home in the evening you ar3 so tired all you want to do is low on your bed an just enjoy the silence after a long days work.so in short I am not a tv binge at all in fact my eyes tire so fast so I can hardly keep up.
I remember back in the day when if you missed a show, you had to wait until they started showing the reruns. Now they have TV shows on Netflix and you can watch not just one show but the entire series, at your own convenience. I was a TV baby, grew up watching TV. Don’t know what life would have been like without the television. (I say that because my husband grew up without a television. He can tell what it was like. He was happy if he had money to go to the movie theater.) I was infected with the “TV bug” from a child and never got rid of it! Binge watching was made for people like me. 🙂
Watching my favorite TV series? No. But while writing some articles or narrative stories or even news item, I don’t want to be disturb. But its hard to be not disturb especially when you have five hyper active children in your and always playing and shouting, no more binging.
I had 11 children. They are all grown now. Binge watching was something I could not do while raising them. But now they are on their own, I can enjoy treating myself to this luxury. I can’t travel or go out much any more. Between finding music on YouTube and binge watching TV shows that are streamed online, I am happy happy happy!
