It's very nice Works well. A trusted brand. Very good on sensitive skin I found. Top marks on this product.
I've found this to be the best 'cooling' after sun gel. Others don't seem to have the same cooling effect, but this instantly takes that horrible hot burnt skin feel away.
Very hydrating - and is one of the less sticky after sun treatments that I've used.
Really great product, and is great on sensitive skin in our family.
I like this after sun gel, it leaves my skin feeling cool after I apply it to sunburn. The formula I find is quite sticky but I would still repurchase
Definitley an essential in my tool kit for summer.This is an awesome product for reducing sun burn, it cools your skin down and I doing so reduces the pain. It does not dry your skin out in fact it hydrates the skin and leaves it smooth.
Tips: Useful over summer keep it in the fridge for extra cooling
I burn ridiculously easily in the sun, so aloe vera gel has been my loyal summer companion for many years. I've just about tried them all! This one I used for about half a summer then absolutely couldn't stand the smell and went back to my usualy cancer society one.
It does a good job soothing my itchy and sore skin, and feels hydrating when I apply it. It doesn't seem too alcoholic but still evaporates/absorbs relatively quickly. I find a tiny tiny drop is enough for my entire face as it spreads easily. It's also good for the whole body as a gel moisturiser when you feel like cream lotions are too heavy. When I was trying to use it up I would apply it to my whole body after showering, and it felt very cooling yet keeping my skin hydrated.
The smell is the one thing keeping me from repurchasing. I don't mind an unscented product or one that smells a little strange/herb like, because at least that means they didn't add any artificial fragrance. But this smelled super unpleasant, like hot rubber or something. Even though it's been ages since I used it, I can still rememver vividly the repulsive smell that I had to bear every time I put this on my face. Absolutely couldn't stand the smell, but maybe if you're using it on your legs or arms it wouldn't be as strong.
After a Banana Boat scandal that left me burnt and sore, I was sent this as a "sorry our sunblock failed". It's been in the fridge ever since and it's a blimmen delight during the hot months, let me tell ya.
I love the lid, and the fact it just pops up. The gel inside squeezes out so easily, I don't think I'll have to ever turn this puppy upside down. I also love the eye catching green, it's awesome!
The smell of the aloe gel isn't overly potent, it's quite calming and nice actually. Putting this on my sun reddened skin my whole body feels instantly cooled. I don't find it sticky at all, which is also another bonus because I HATE sticky aloe gels. They drive me bonkers!
It's definitely very soothing, and it sinks into the skin or evaporates quickly, which makes me think that's why it's not so sticky. I'd definitely repurchase.
Though this product is okay, it is not something I would repurchase or reccomend. Im going against other reviewers, and say I wasnt to keen on this aftersun. It felt gluggy, sticky and didnt have the cooling effect I was after. I popped it in the fridge and believe thats mostly what helped with the iritation. I used a friends aftersun which was a much better product.
This product is great for all types of sun and wind burn. Soothes, cools, removes the “sting” and is t too sticky and slimy. Easy to apply with the flip top lid - kids don’t spill as much either. Definitely recommend
Great on sunburn and is also soothing for itchy bites and rashes. Absorbs quickly but I do find that I have to wash my hands after applying it. Personally I have no problem with the smell but it is quite strong.
