Just want to share some of my favorite Trader Joe's product. Not only are they effective and high quality but affordable!
TJ's aloe vera gel is hypoallergenic and cruelty-free. No animal testing or byproducts. 12 oz. bottle costs only $2.99!  and has many many uses!
1. I slather it on damp skin right after stepping out of the shower. It's my first protective layer to hold in the moisture, then I follow with a more moisturizing lotion or sunless tanner.
2. I keep a spare bottle in a tote when I go to the beach or pool to apply after a swim and sunblock. The cooling effect is immediate!
3. Use it as an after sun treatment on myself and the little ones.
List of ingredients:
Water, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Butylene Glycol, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract, Arnica Montana Flower Extract, Tocophersolan, TEA-Carboner, Methylparaben, Diazolidinyl Urea, DMDM Hydantoin, Trisodium, EDTA |

| My skin loves aloe and what a great price, I'll put this on my list for TJ's, love that store (almond butter, cashew butter, lemon curd, I could go on and on...)! |

| TJs is my favorite store, too. Their Nourish Spa shampoo and conditioner are awesome and only $2.49 a bottle. |

There was a recent review of Alba's similar shave creams, and we discussed this one too. Here's the link:

When I first checked the TJ's packaging their formulation still contained parabens, but it looks like they've updated. I'm going to have to give this a try now! |
