Larika Bonar from Canada used Aloe Vera for Eczema in November 2010
developed chronic itchy rash on entire body..I am suffering for last two months..creams..steroids. benadryl no relief...scratching and infecting skin ...look a mess.I applied aloe gel and results were immediate..the sting was a relief ..stopped using steroid creams and I see my skin improving.
I was desperate and put these chemicals on my skin..knowing I had reactions to medication..Plus it was costing me a small fortune...Doctors have no answers for me..they were making me worse ...Aloe is my only relief ..I recommend it ,IT is the best friend I have right now!!!

Sian Williams from UK used Aloe Vera for Eczema in November 2009
Seriously that propolis cream is pure genius. My skin has gone from constantly cracking sandpaper to really smooth. And the lip balm is really good too...lasts all day which is more than can be said for vaseline!
Every person who uses it is living proof of its miraculousness (is that a word?)
