    I'll have to try that, here in AZ Aloe gets to be a weed. I have a patch I tear out and toss away about every 6 months. You just cant kill the stuff.

    I have been using Aloe as an aftershave for 25 years now. Actually, I rub it all over my face and neck. I think it helps sundamage and feels absolutely wonderful. I highly reccomend it! Cheapest and best thing you will ever use!

    The green crap in Korea?!?! I hated that junk. My roomate drank it religiously though. Made me gag. But YMMV I suppose.

    I have been using a mixture if Aloe Vera gel, Witch Hazel, Jojoba oil and Tea Tree EO as an after shave balm. I am really liking this homemade stuff. My skin can get very dry but since the time I have been using this homemade stuff, the dryness has reduced quite a bit.

    For years my after shave balm consists of aloe vera, 1 drop of lanolin and a smear of East African shea butter all mixed with any A/S balm just for the ease of mixing. Works great on your skin.
