Aloe vera gel is good to use if you have a rash, sunburn, cut or general itch. It's a short term solution to one of these problems but it won't get rid of pimples or acne.
If you have sensitive skin then you should try using cocoa butter or pure shea butter as a moisturizer. If you want to get rid of blemished skin, you should go see a dermatologist...most over the the counter stuff doesn't work well for this.
So, to answer your question...aloe vera gel is completely save for your skin. It won't break you out or cause any harm..just don't use it around your eyes.

I've been using Aloe Vera gel instead of my normal moisturizer at night after I wash my face, it's been helping, my skin isn't so oily in the mornings, and my face go a little more clearer, and it doens't irritate my skin. Since Aloe Vera is supposed to help your skin, why not use it for your face as well?

I've used it and I agree, it does feel good. Unless you are particularly sensitive to Aloe Vera, you shouldn't have a problem with it. I don't know why there would be any harm unless you are allergic.

I have used a product that is 99.7% aloe vera. Some brands round it up to 100% because it is close enough or just has traces of other ingredients and preservatives.
The results are great. Use an aloe based cream for hands. elbows and knees!!!! (if u please)

Aloe vera is fine for your skin. If you develop a problem from it then stop, but otherwise it is fine.
