Last night I was desperate for relief of my itchy, burning allergy eyes. I had already used my allergy eye drops. They seem to work but only for a short period of time. My eyes were killing me. It was bed time. I needed a quick remedy. I found it with just a little research online. ALOE! It just so happened that my daughter got an Aloe plant two weeks ago at her favorite store - Lowes. I cut off a piece and rubbed the clear get on and around my eyes. Yes, some of it actually got in my eyes. I then closed my eyes for a few minutes to let the gel dry. Voila! Instant relief! I could not believe it. It really worked.
I have used Aloe in the past, mostly for cuts, scrapes and burns. I had never thought about putting it on my eyes. I was a bit skeptical to be honest. But, as I said, I was desperate for relief and willing to try almost anything. This is one home remedy that I'll keep using. I probably better go buy a few more Aloe plants!
Note: I would not recommend using Aloe Vera gel that you buy for this purpose. Now you can purchase PURE Aloe but you'll have to search specifically for it. Most of the commercial Aloe products include alcohol and thickening agents. I would not put that on my eyes. The Aloe plant was cheap - only a few bucks - and easy to use.
If you try this, drop me a note and let me know how it works for you!
Blessings,
Kymber
