End Note

If you are wanting to plump your skin to an unnatural look eg: Large pouty lips or to make a 70 year old face look decades younger, aloe vera on it’s own is not likely to achieve this.
Side effects – In rare cases, some people can get a mild allergic reaction on when using aloe vera. Resulting in abdominal cramping, diarrhea, red urine, itching and/or a rash. Should this happen to you – discontinue using it.
