Aloe or Vitamin E

I've been trying to decide which line to go with at the Body shop for my day use. It's between Aloe and Vitamin E. This weekend my boyfriend and I went to try out some more to help me decide. This Aloe serum felt really good going on and after it was absorbed. It left me smooth and silky. My man loved it. I think I'm leaning towards the aloe.

Didn't help my redness

I hate to be the first to say mean things about this serum, but I was unpleasantly surprised by its inefficacy. I received a sample of this which I used every night (for about two weeks) between toning and moisturizing. It smelled awful and didn't handle the redness on my nose and cheeks. I like that it contains good bacteria, absorbs quickly, and doesn't clog pores, but otherwise it's a dud.

Okay product

This serum isn't as good as the one I use now, it's not as rich and hydrating. I upgraded to Origins.

Pretty good

I've just started using this for 3 days and it does help with my redness quite significantly. It also makes my skin smoother and my night cream seems to sink in a bit more after using this serum. The smell is awful though, I had to hold my breath when I put this on!

Good for What it needs to do!

The aloe serum is NOT suppose to be a moisturizing serum, but has prebiotics to help protect sensitive skin and improve the natural protective barrier in the skin. I love this in the summer before I go outside. The Aloe helps to sooth and when used with an SPF really helps to protect my skin!

It's ok

I wasn't overly thrilled with this serum but it did soothe my skin somewhat. I did not expect it to have any effect on redness as this is related to rosacea, and I was right, it did not. I was satisfied although frudtrated that it only lasted me a month wnhen using once a day on my face, neck and decolletage. Since I have found a local organic brand which is far more effective, very hydrating, and exactlt the same price.

Aloe: good for sensitive skin

Aloe is the goto treatment for too much sun or burns in general because of its natural soothing powers, which is why we were intrigued with the line of Aloe skin care products at The Body Shop. We've been using the Aloe Protective Serum for a week and notice that our skin is smoother and softer and the redness around our nose is less noticeable. Per instructions, this is best used between toning a...read morend moisturizing. It contains pre-biotics, by adding good bacteria to your skin to fend off the bad.

Love the Whole Aloe Line

I love the whole Aloe Line from The Body Shop. I have very sensitive dry skin, and I have hardly had any skin problems since I have started to use the Aloe line. This serum goes on before I put on my moisturizer. I use either the Aloe Day moisturizer or the Aloe moisturizer with SPF. The line does not have the best smell (it is fragrance-free), but it makes my skin soft and keeps it from drying out.
