aloevera cream - #18259

Fatima

I am really worried about my skin lately! I started using aloevera cream about a month ago because my friend said it helped her with some dry patches. At first, it felt great, like super soothing and stuff, but now I'm noticing some redness and these weird little bumps are popping up, especially on my cheeks. I dunno if it's the aloevera cream or maybe something else I'm using, because I also changed cleansers around the same time. I tried to look up if aloevera cream could cause this kind of reaction and saw mixed stuff online. Some say it's great for sensitive skin, while others talk about possible irritations or allergies. I really wanna believe the aloevera cream is doing good for me but what if it's actually making it worse? I also have a bit of a history with eczema, and I'm scared that maybe the aloevera cream is triggering something. Is it common to have a reaction like this? Should I stop using the aloevera cream immediately, or do you think it could just be a transitional phase while my skin adjusts? Any advice would be super appreciated, feeling kinda lost here!
