I like the Banana Boat green gel, personally. I only use it after getting a lot of sun, though.
Guys,
Is the clear Aloe juice better than the gel? (about the sticky feeling)
I cant answer taht one for ya, I have never used aloe juice. I guess you are talking about having an aloe plant where you squeeze the leaf and get the juice. I have not ever thought about trying that. The sticky feeling you are experiencing with the gel, are you rubbing it all the way in? I know sometimes my hands feel sticky after I apply it...but I generally just wash my hands afterwards or just rub my hands together and it goes away.
@Timmj
In the market, you can find 2 types of aloe vera.
. The juice (thick like water) in a bottle of 0,5kg or 1kg
. the gel (in the same size bottles)
The difference is that the gel contains parts of the leaf...
* Both are consume safe (as is or with orange/other juice)
I tried once an aftershave with aloe from Macrovita, that it sticks like hell (thats why im asking about the gel)
My wife bought to me an 99% aloe after shave gel from "lilly of the desert" that is cool...
Im interesting to use on my noggin "consume safe" gel, thats why Im asking

Thanks for your answer
Best regards
Dimitris.
Just to update....I am still using the aloe vera gel. I have not used the Aloe Juice yet. Has anyone tried it?
I prefer a brand called Ocean Potion. It's a blua gell that contains Aloe Vera, Lidocaine, and Tea Tree Extract. It goes on clean and doesn't feel greasy or sticky.
I use Fruit of the Earth Aloe Gel. I use a spot of it smaller than a dime, rub it in well on my head, nape, and face. I find that the tackiness soon goes away and it leave a nice gloss finish on my head.
