For adults, aloe vera extract applied to the skin is usually safe and is often used to soothe and moisturize. Most people tolerate it well.
Use products that list aloe vera extract for normal skin care. Do a small patch test on your forearm first to check for irritation. Don’t put aloe products inside the body. If you have any skin cuts or open wounds, avoid applying products with aloe unless directed by a healthcare provider.
A few animal studies and industry safety reviews have reported reproductive effects at moderate systemic doses (source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review and peer-reviewed studies). Because those findings are not clearly linked to normal skin use in adults, this is a low-level concern, but if you are pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor before using products with this ingredient. Also watch for rare allergic skin reactions (redness, itching); stop use if that happens.
