aloe vera overnight - #13318
I am really curious about using aloe vera overnight for my skin, but I've been having some doubts. A few weeks ago, I started noticing some dry patches and like, little blemishes popping up on my cheeks. It freaked me out! I tried a bunch of creams, but nothing worked. Then, someone told me that applying aloe vera overnight could help. Sooo, I bought a big bottle of aloe vera gel and began slathering it on my face every night. At first, it felt amazing, like a cool relief. But then I woke up one morning to find my skin super oily, and my spots seemed worse! I'm like, is aloe vera overnight actually doing anything? I’ve read conflicting things about how it helps with hydration and healing, but my skin is so sensitive! Should I be worried that it’s making it worse? Like, do I need to wash it off before bed? Can I apply like, way too much? I thought it was a natural solution but this is frustrating. I wonder if anyone else has had similar experiences with aloe vera overnight use? Is it better for oily or dry skin? Or should I stop using it all together? Help!
