 NOT 100% ALOE VERAFeb 25, 2011
By Silne30
It's NOT 100% Aloe Vera. The bottle says 100% Gel....How sneaky of them...
I realized this after getting home.
Here is the ingredient list:
Aloe Vera Gel, Triethanolamine, Tocopheryl, Acetate, Carbomer, Tetrasodium EDTA, DMDM Hydantoin, Diazolidinyl UREA.
I tried it just so that I could give an honest review of how it treats my skin even when I found out the ingredients. Well, it's drying. My skin was not moisturized from this.
I'm not willing to try it again. I'm just going to take it back and buy 100% Aloe Vera Gel from another company and also buy a $4 Aloe Vera Plant.
If this works for you, that's good. But if you're someone expecting 100% Aloe, this isn't the product for you. It's just 100% Gel. Whatever that means.

100% Gel and NOT 100% ALOE Read the Bottle CAREFULLYJan 11, 2009
By Loudbyte
If you care about your health, then don't buy this product. There's so many toxic chemicals in this bottle, I don't know where they had room for the aloe. Read the label carefully. It READS, 100% GEL AND NOT 100% ALOE VERA. See the deception ? The 100% is carefully placed next to the word Gel. What you've really bought is 100% Gel as opposed to liquid..etc.
If you google each of the chemicals listed in the ingredients, you will find that they are toxins.
If you don't mind the toxins and chemicals, then why not just go to your local Walgreens and get a bottle of 'fake aloe' for $3. If you put it on a skin rash or irritation, it burns. Real ALOE doesn't burn. Check it out for yourself.

One of the BestSep 04, 2011
By ~~Hummingbirder~~
"Call me hb"
Fruit of the Earth has been around for, hmm, maybe 30 years? I remember the first time I bought aloe gel it was Fruit of the Earth. That was when aloe gel was the hot new thing.
I have an aloe vera plant, too. It's been growing about 20 years. Honestly, I do like the freshly cut leaves better for burns and to help heal skin, but the plant has its drawbacks, too, primarily the fact that when you cut off a leaf, it's going to take time for a new one to grow. And it can get messy, and you have to use it fresh. The fresh aloe gel isn't really like a gel. It's really more like extremely watery mucous. I only use it for first aid, because straight up, the fresh aloe makes my skin feel tight.
So, I did some research on the ingredients after I've used this for a while. I noticed when I used it near my eyes, they burned a little. It was nothing major, but I wanted to know what was up. Besides aloe vera, this product contains, pH adjustor, thickeners, stabilizers, preservative (tocopherol), and anti-microbials. I've no intention of writing a thesis, but my research revealed that several ingredients may irritate the eyes. These types of ingredients are required for a uniform product with some shelf life, and protection from yeasty beasties. So don't put it around your eyes, OK?
I use it to calm irritated skin. It's cooling on a hot day, and boy, it feels like heaven putting this stuff on your feet at night. I use it to help wounds heal faster, and as an after shave/after epilation. Sometimes I just put it on because I feel like using it.
Though I do have the eye irritation that I have to work around, I recommend this. I researched a lot of aloe vera gels on Amazon, and this is the best formulation I could find, bar none. Please note this is not a food grade aloe vera gel.

 great hair gel!May 20, 2011
By earthmama
I love this product! I use it as a hair gel for my curly girl hair. No obnoxious perfume smell and it doesn't dry out my hair. Walmart used to carry it and we would buy 6 bottles at a time. They have stopped carrying it and I am so glad to find it here at Amazon.

Recommended for my skin following radiation treatments.Oct 27, 2009
By Conomo
This gel was recommended to me to apply following radiation treatments and was sold at the hospital pharmacy. It contains no alcohol or artificial color or perfumes. The first ingredient listed is aloe vera gel. This gel helped my skin heal from the effects of radiation. This is a wonderful product, and I highly recommend it.
