Should I Moisturize After Aloe Vera?
As we've already mentioned, aloe vera is a gentle and effective moisturizer for thirsty skin. Use the thick sap in place of your moisturizer—and if you need a little extra hydration, slather it on before adding an oil or cream.

What should we do after applying aloe vera gel?

For best results, leave the aloe vera gel on your face for about 10 minutes, then rinse your face with cool water and pat dry. Pure aloe vera gel may have a drying effect if you leave it on your skin for too long.

Can I leave aloe vera on as a moisturizer?

A. Aloe vera can be used as a natural moisturiser if you have dry or itchy skin. It can also be used as an excellent anti-ageing remedy by applying it to your face before you head to bed.
