Answers:
Well, aloe can only soothe/cool down, the acne, not help it so much, per-say. I would suggest it straight from the plant, its more natural, chemical free. Just let it absorb by itself, no fingertips!

To assist in getting rid of the bumps, i would use a general cleanser everyday, maybe twice a day. also, try not to put scented or heavy lotions on the facialskin, it may be an irritant.

As an addict, i'd suggest Dove or Nivea products, they contain moisturizers already. BUT, be careful, make sure you pick up the right products for your skintype - oily, dry, sensitive, etc.

Last but not least, DRINK HELLA LOTTA WATER. What you eat filters thru your body, and could end up "filtering" to your face. Like i get pimples and crap from acidic fruit, and soda. So, the water will help your body's filter.

Hope that helps!

It can help your face yes. But struggling with acne myself at times I have used a few tricks that have done the job. For my body I use oxy body wash, it's under $5.00 at walmart or alike stores. It helps keep any unwanted body acne away, it really works! And for my face I use Clearisil morning time face wash, with little micro beads; in the morning time. And at night I wash with DermaClear. I swear on these to help your acne in no time! Don't use any weird chemicals or anything but what I said and you'll be cleared up in no time! also! If you get a really irritated zit before a date or night out, use colgate or aquafresh (most work but I found those to be the best) leave it on til it dreams then wash off with warm water immideatly, repeat until you're satisfied. DONT LEAVE IT ON FOR TOO LONG THOUGH! It will reduce redness and obviousness of the zit. Best of luck to you!!Health Question & Answer

Aloe vera is a great plant to be used when having trouble with your skin. It is credited as being used by Cleopatra, the beautiful queen of Egypt for her skin care regime.

Even if it doesn't permanently cure your pimples it will help reduce redness, flaky skin swelling caused by the skin.
