Hi Maggie I just take the 'leaves' as they are' wrapped up well and kept in fridge whilst on hols, split them in half and rub it on.

I do exactly the same as you Caron, and the relief is instant.

as long as you keep it in the fridge should be fine,at some resorts people sell it like this in bottles on the beach dont know about in goa though

my wife suffers badly with prickly heat she took piriton tabs a week b4 we went and while we were there and she only got very slight prickle heat

hi coley
i have tried all the tablets and they dont seem to work for me thats why i want to experiment with aloe vera
i get the feeling i might be allegic to something in the suntan lotions/aftersun creams it appears to have worked for some as mentioned in this topic
this problem only seems to have arisen since i became diabetic so i dont know if there is a connection

I tried the piriton for prickly heat, but it didn't seem to help much, but the aloe vera straight from the plant leaf stopped the irritation instantly. The plant only cost about 40 rupees in goa.

have you ever tried p 20 you only need to apply it once a day unless you are in the sea or a pool for long periods its more expensive but is very good may help with only needing the one application the also do aftersun now as well

p20
:cry: :cry: hiya iv used p20 and i didnt rate it alls it did was dye all my underware a horrible orange colour and yes i did wait for it to dry and it gave my skin an orangey tint, iv got 2 half bottles you can also get it off ebay as well, the best one i found was asdas no-ad aloe vera gel it was about £2.50ish for a 500ml pump bottle and its got added vitamin e and its also a concentrated formula,
iv had the same bottle for 4 holidays now and theres still loads left, they also do carrot oil suntan lotion and loads of others of different factors i used to spend loads on piz buin and hawaian tropics and iv found that asdas no-ad cremes and oils are even better but less money!!!!!!!!! :D :D

p20
:D hiya the p20 i put on made my skin have an orangey shade what to do is just rub a little on you from the bottle and see what you think. i know it stained a lovely cream lacey bra that cost a fortune and it never came out so watch your clothes. :-))
