On the skin its fine, just dont consume it. Patch test once.

Applying aloe gel on skin is generally fine, I used it for my dry skin and stretch marks area. Just do a small patch test first in case of irritation. Its eating or drinking aloe thats not advised, not topical use.

I love natural stuff so I used aloe gel for skin and it was soothing. For topical use its usually okay, but never drink aloe juice in pregnancy. If your skin reacts or you have any concern, just check with your doctor.

Actually I used aloe gel on my belly for the itching yaar, worked fine for me. Just patch test once on your arm. External use is no big deal honestly.
