Can aloe vera cure pimples

Answer 1

Aloe vera is not proven to cure pimples, but it can ease some discomfort associated with pimples. Aloe is a water-based substance that is thick and gel-like. It can sometimes clog pores, if a lot is used. Make sure to gently clean your skin before applying any ointment to a sore or pimple. I recommend using a gentle face wash daily (something with salicylic acid is good), taking care to avoid sensitive areas (like the eyes) and applying sunscreen when you go outside. Avoid shaving over pimples, as they can leave scars and dimples later on. Take care to not scrub your face too hard, as that can just worsen and aggravate pimples.

Answer 2

Yes, natural Aloe Vera can help heal pimples. It is a natural antibacterial, so it will help heal it by killing the bacteria inside the pimple. Besides the healing properties of it, it is also a natural anti-inflammatory so it can help with the swelling on the pimple. It is also very soothing so it can help temporarily with the redness of the blemish. With aloe being an antioxidant, it contains many good vitamins that help make the skin appear more beautiful-- even color, smooth texture, etc. Make sure you use natural Aloe Vera right off of the plant, as the bottled kind may contain chemicals that can harm or irritate your skin.
