Aloe Vera Gel and Vitamin E Oil Experience

Early last week, I had an incident with undiluted tea tree oil and ended up with, approximately, a dime sized burn on part of my face 😬 I went to a locally owned health food store, spoke to the owner and ended up purchasing some aloe vera gel and a small bottle of vitamin E oil. After about a week of using the aloe vera gel, aplying the gel daily and placing a fresh bandaid over it, I’m delighted to say the burn/scarring is practically non-existent! Seriously, it's like magic 😁😅 Alas, after a day or two of trying the vitamin E oil, I stopped post haste as it appears that it makes my skin itch—luckily that’s the only allergic reaction that came out of that experiment🙏🏿Online research showed that some folks do experience allergic reactions to vitamin E oil. Sharing in case it’s helpful to folks.
