  • OKAY, SO those plants in my town, are like tiny, that thing is huge.

    

  • Pleaseeeeeeeeeeee answer - SHOULD YOU PUT IT IN THE FRIDGE AFTER CUTTING IT?

    How often to you use it?

  • I'm happy I found you :x

  • can you plzz make a vid on the what we should look for when buying an acne facewash pllz

    like this so she can see plzz

  • I was just wondering what you might think of Fruit of the Earth Aloe Vera Gel, its 100%, no color added, but it has a few preservatives in it. Just wondering if anyone has heard of it and what their experience has been

  • @azianluvbug000 I tried that aloe gel and it ended up wreaking havoc on my face. I have extremely sensitive skin though. I'd recommend trying it on just a small area like a bit on your chin to see if it will irritate your skin.

  • @angelnoir9 I have been using it on my face just fine, i don't have sensitive skin really. Takes a lot to irritate my face. I am curious as to whether the preservative found in it alters the effectiveness at all. I personally love it but wonder if there is a better alternative aside from raw Aloe Vera leaf.

  • @azianluvbug000 The preservatives may alter it a bit but it wouldn't be anything significant. You can continue using it if it's not negatively affecting your skin but you can never beat using real aloe vera for the best results.

  • Whooooo Houston ! (:

  • I have a few questions: I got myself a aloe vera plant and used it on my face like shown. Now I didn't have a mixer and made myself a aloe vera sandwich instead lol.. although its too late, is the slimy substance even edible? because you wash it off + it says on a piece of paper which came with my plant that it isn't... also are there any other tips how to use the inner part of the plant?

  • "meeeh! I'm a Rhino!" your awesome! :)

  • Aloe smells bad I can't use it. I'll stick to honey instead.

  • I have a very old aloe plant and I cut off a leaf to use for my face because it has been itchy and blotchy and dry. The leaf smelled so bad! I decided to not use it because I was scared that it was rotten. What does the smell mean?

  • @xStaceFace its perfectly fine i have the same sorta thing and its very soothing for the skin but if you're still skeptical for it buy a peice of aloe at the grocery store, the people working there must know how to pick the right leaf

  • what kind of blender do you use? And how do you like it? Does it have a burnt smell or not blend well?

    I am planning on buying one.

  • I got a lot of GNC's Aloe Vera!!! Its cooling :D!

  • does aloe smell bad? i've tried rubbing the leaf to sunburns a couple times before but in my experience it had an awful almost b-o type of smell. maybe it was just my particular plant or something but it seemed to be healthy :/

  • Wow this tutorial....!!! such perfect timing! I just happened to get an aloe vera plant, and I heard that it was good for the skin, but I wasn't too sure if it was safe to just rub the aloe on my face directly. Thanks a bunch for this informative tutorial! I'm definitely going to try the smoothie too! :D

  • my mom use to buy those aloe vera leafs all the time! i don't know why she stopped, but i think i'll start. i have a couple acne scars that have been there for about a month now. so ima try out the aloe vera diy that you did. btw, have you ever tried to aloe vera drink? it's so good! i love the little jellies inside :]

  • @kaymizzai what does it taste like? I've seen them at my local grocery store but haven't tried it yet but want to.

  • @SecretLifeofMissEna i love it! it's really delicious, but that's my opinion. my family and most of my friends like it too. there's some aloe vera drinks with green tea in them. i actually don't like those cause i'm not a big fan of tea. but if you like it, you should try it out

  • @kaymizzai I will try it! thanks!

  • Woah, right after i watched this video, my mom returns from her long vacation bringing back aloe vera skin products for me to try... o_o kinda creepy. And now my skin is so much better. The skin product ingredients list aloe vera first too! :D

  • too bad I can't buy this here T.T you can't buy here anything -.-" ...btw could you do a makeup tutorial for this look? I really like it^^

  • does aloe vera help in scar healing? my scar has been there since 2008 >.<

  • Your amazing! I live in Grand Island, NE. I love watching your vids. That lotion that you put on after you rinsed of the aloe, was it that GNC Aloe stuff? Thanx

  • Is aloe vera gel better for active pimples than tea-tree oil? I've been using tea-tree oil, but I'll switch to aloe vera gel if you think it would help more. I can only get 99.9% gel, as I live in Britain and don't have access to actual leaves.

  • is that a green screen behind you?

  • That was a really long outro, haha! 

  • great tut and lots of good info however i think tomorrow should be a banana and blueberry smoothie otherwise those bananas are bread ingredients luv ur channel

  • they sell the leaf at my store! i really wanna go buy 1

  • lol, good luck. michelle phan reference.

    where's the "peace out, skin freaks"?

  • Aloe Vera! In a smoothie? I was so completely not expecting that. How does it taste?

  • No Rhino. Only Unicorns.

  • You can an aloe vera plant real cheap from home depot, or any hardware store that sells plants!

  • THANK YOU SO MUCH! So excited to try this out. :D

  • I love this! I used it for one day and have already noticed the difference. thanks a lot

  • wouldn't you, idk. use up all the aloe if you use that much of it? how fast does an aloe plant grow?

  • What do you usually use the aloe vera gel for? can it substitute a moisturizer? :D

  • omg, thats awesome! :3

    wish I could grow one.

  • I love how you I'm english and say Aloe Vera so different to you :')

  • i lovvveee using aloe vera after staying under the sun for a long time ^^

    soothes skin ad helps u keep ur tan longer!

  • i didn't know you could put aloe vera in food ^__^

    guess you do learn sumat everyday

  • Girllllllll the way you were using that knife made me shudder! Goes against everything I know about using knives ><!

    Also, having an aloe vera plant around is good if you know someone who is prone to burns. I keep one in the kitchen so that if/when I burn myself I can just snap off a small piece and rub it on the afflicted area (small burns only, anything where the skin is bubbling, see a DR!). Aloe vera is also soothing for mild sunburn.

  • Thank you for the tip! I really wish i could get hold of one, but theres not much here D:

  • About how much does a tube of aloe very cost?

  • I'm allergic to aloe vera :(

  • gnarly.

  • Hey i am ugly. what can i use to make myself look like kim kardashian

  • @n4stynat604 botox, get a contract with skecher, open your own store, and get on reality T.V ^_^"

  • @SecretLifeOfaBioNerd geez thanks that really hurt my already very low self of steem. curse my ugly hide.

  • @n4stynat604 she didnt mean to hurt you, you basically asked how you can be kim and thats how kim became kim...but if you would have asked how to make your imperfections/flaws a bit better im sure she'd have answered with her guru skills. im sure your not butt ugly, you might have bad skin , then use good skin products, get a really nice hair cut, watch natural make up videos on youtube. all this combined can make you look so different/nice ^.^

  • @n4stynat604 Umm...you shouldn't feel like you should copy someone else to feel beautiful in the first place. Being yourself is the most beautiful thing of any person. besides Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...Not to mention that's probably all true about Miss. Kim there. So maybe its best that you try to be yourself and not someone else. ^-^ And if others say different then whom cares? Its all about you not what they think! Trust me, been there done that.

  • @n4stynat604 kid,you just asked her how to be like kim kardashain. and she told you. know if you asked her how to get good skin or to recemmed makeup products she would of.

    p.s every one is beautiful

  • I'm definitely going to try this, thank you!

  • thanks! i usually just use mine for cuts and burns, i didnt know i could use it for acne!

  • Thanks so much!

    P.S. when is your next blogtv? It was so much fun!

  • Subscribed! I love how you're introducing this plant to those who have never considered this plant before!

    Not only does this work wonders, but for those who are wondering, aloe vera juice tastes like grape juice :) I used to look at it funny when I was younger at the grocery store, but I finally tried it out two years ago and it's AMAZINGG!!

  • will aloe vera also help with already existing acne scars?

  • hey, i love your videos and i love that you stick with it. there is a dance coming up at my school and i want to ask an awesome guy to dance, could you show me how to make a really cool but middle school friendly dress? :)

  • blackness at end.

  • Hi SecretLifeOfaBioNerd,

    I just have a question about making my own facial mask with compressed mask.

    Is it okay to mix lemon juice and aloe vera together? I was thinking this is okay since lemon juice is highly acidic, aloe vera would reduce the acidity. I'm hoping the chemicals that are in these two ingredients aren't going to clash together to create something strange. @_@ What would you say about this?

    Thanks so much! :)

  • @keitsumi U know i am not quite sure. Acid tends to change things quite a bit..so I wouldn't try it out..i woudl do a lemon mask to exfoliate and then do an aloe mask ^_^ it makes more sense that way.

  • @SecretLifeOfaBioNerd Hey Everyone! To begin, great info on aloe. Aloe itself in on the acidic side, about 4.6-4.8 naturally. It will not raise the acidity of lemon juice very much. Also you do want to make sure you wash the aloe well. That "slimy" stuff act as a really bad laxative. In commercially processed aloe juices and gels that substance is taken out. :)

  • hey, which one of the GNC aloe products would you recommend for dry skin? GNC aloe gel or aloe moisturizing cream?

  • I always thought aloe vera was slightly toxic...I think it is but then again apple seeds have a small amount of cyanide in them so...

  • @kawaii99999 cl lenses ..it's in angel wing grey

  • ummm... Is it okay that I put aloe vera gel all over my face each night mixed with benzoil peroxyde?

  • I hate the smell of aloe vera. It has such a potent smell. But everything you said is true.

  • can you use aloe vera gel that comes in the bottle?

  • Idk if I am allergic to Aloe Vera or not, but the last time I tried using the plant for a burn it made me itch so bad. Maybe I'll give it a try again... Thanks for the tips! ^__^

  • Pleaaaaaaase can you teach us how to choose and aloe vera from the groceries ? I've been wanting to buy some for the longest time, but I don't know how to chose it.

  • I have tried using aloe as a mask like you showed in the video. Unfortunately, my skin did not like it. In fact, it made my skin super itchy and red!

  • You've been looking alot more mature and not little kiddish like :O Still pretty (: I wish you'd get a better quality camera D:

  • Aloe Vera is flippin awesome. And it tastes yummy too <3

    And I have some pots of it. LOL. YAY.

  • My mom recommend aloe vera. When I had acne she bought 100% pure aloe vera juice and made me drink it. that stuff is NASTY but i think it helped. we also have an aloe vera plant in my house, it's EXTREMELY easy to care for. and whenever i have a break out I just cut a piece and apply. the plant heals and grows back with a few weeks. it is my go to herb for my skin

  • i was like..DEJA VU! O_O haven't i watched this vid before?! then realized oh yea..it was on ThreadBanger, haha..i'm not crazy kekek~

  • OH I didnt know aloe vera had those properties! :O

  • LOL! i loved the animal part hehe hcute :D Something i would do n.n

  • btw:my broinlaw uses the slice of aloe (like you did with the cut piece rubbed on your face?)as a bandage also.he had a cut that he just kind of taped the slice on his finger. it was sterile, and kept the aloe on the wound. he says when he took it off the cut was healing already, and it felt just fine.

  • thumbs up for HEB!!! :)

  • LOVE aloe vera!however, that stuff made by banana boat for after burns has other stuff in it that stings. i buy the brand that is JUST aloe!burns are very easily taken care of by this..glad to know about scars also, sweetie!you are so helpful!

  • Its really good for burns....

  • Your skin looks a lot healthier now. (:

  • I LOVE BIO NERDS! UNITE<3

  • Needless to stay, I love your humor so much :))

  • where can i buy the GNC Aloe Vere Gel?

  • you should also be buying 8th continent soy milk. its the only one that has real calcium and not the isolate. you should know this!!!!! [okay i only know because i'm on wic. lol]

  • THAT IS THE BIGGEST ALOE LEAF I HAVE EVER SEEN. it makes my plant look like a little wimp and mine is huge compared to everyone's around here! lololol!!!!!

  • i can't find aloe anywhere!!! I live in canada... maybe that's the problem :/

  • I heard that Aloe Vera has this certain type of poison that is harmful to the body. I don't know whether it's true or not. but I do have an Aloe plant and I'm scared to make use of it cause of the poison thingy. Thoughts ?

  • @iinaaiin as long as you cut off the spikes your fine aloe is extremely safe to use

  • do you use the aloe vera gel the same way? leave it on for 15 minutes and wash it off? ps. very useful video!!!

  • you can eat it!?? oookaay...

  • hey i have aloe vera gel at home and it says it is 100% aloe vera but the first ingredient is deionized water and the second is the aloe vera, is it not going to work as well?

  • do you think the real plant is the same as using the 100% aloe vera gel in the bottle form? I dont liek the real plant cuz i feel like it makes my skin itch.. :|

  • Can you please do a hair tutorial for how your hair was in this video please :)

  • My grandma used to have an Aloe Vera plant and when I was little I loved to cut it up and play with the "goo". My grandma told me it was good for you and you skin but I didn't believe her. xD Now that I'm older I know it does.(:

  • I love Silk Vanilla!
