My sister got this for me when she went to Hong Kong. I currently use this as a facial moisturizer. As my sensitive, acne-prone skin were healing (with Avene) and dry from not being able to use any other skincare products, I finally mustered up the courage to try this unknown brand of aloe vera gel after months of not using anything else. 

First impression was the super pleasant and refreshing aloe scent that wasn't overwhelming! At first I applied a dollop thinking it should be the right amount but my face became really sticky! :( My sister told me a tiny amount is enough. I tried using only a little and spread it quickly and it absorbed almost instantly! I do like to apply a bit more than "little" because I psychologically feel it is more hydrating although a bit sticky, haha :D

My skin didn't break out and became more hydrated! Over time, my skin really did improve from the previous dry, red, pimply skin! Fell in love with this product instantly! Super big tub and so cheap! It is also great as body lotion! :D 

☼ didn't break me out
☼ hydrating
☼ helped with my sensitive, acne-prone skin 
☼ HUGE amount
☼ super CHEAP 
☀ not sure if I can get it in Malaysia :(

I would repurchase aloe vera gels for sure! ❤ but maybe I'll want to try other brands :)

I used this when I had a MASSIVE break out from using a bb cream T_T. Tons of acne on my forehead and cheeks (I rarely get any pimples on my cheeks! They were in clusters! ;( ). I couldn't use any skincare products except a cleanser otherwise I would get more acne! This product definitely helped soothe, hydrate and soften my super sensitive skin! My skin seriously felt super soft! I think this product is one of the reasons for my skin's recovery :D

I don't know if this is right, but I currently use this as a toner and it works great for me! I also use it whenever my face is slightly itchy. The second I spray it on, my skin feels so cool and comfortable. I also use it whenever I'm feeling hot :D

For me, this product is quite expensive. But if you wait for promotions, they do sell 3 bottles packed together and it is much cheaper per bottle :D Although it is a bit pricier, I definitely would not mind spending on this! Super good! :D

☼ really soothing, hydrating and softening!

☼ absorbs super fast!
☼ helped with my sensitive, acne-prone skin
☀ a little pricey but definitely worth it especially if you have sensitive skin :D

Definitely WILL repurchase! ❤

Smell	tea tree scent, slightly sweet - bubble gum flavour? :D
Stickiness	Low

I use this after toning my face. 1 1/2 pumps is enough for me to spread around. It is slightly sticky at first but the stickiness dissipates fairly quickly. The smell is quite pleasant for me - a sweet kinda tea tree scent that reminds me of bubble gum :D

I got this as a birthday present from my sisters :D I love the smell of it. It didn't break me out nor did it help with my skin. It does make my face oilier than before I started to use this product. I've stopped using this product since then. 

☼ love the smell
☼ absorbs fairly quickly
☼ no break out
☀ doesn't help with my acne
☀ a little pricey for me

I would not repurchase this as I don't think it is effective in clearing up my acne :(
