Hey Beauties,

So I can't remember where I read this but could aloe vera gel really be used as a primer and if so has anyone ever used it before as a primer before?

Never heard of it as a primer and I've never used it for that, but it would make some sense that itd make a decent one for the right kind of skin.

I saw online that as long as it's pure Aloe Vera gel you can use it as a primer.

Never heard of it, but I've heard of people using Monistat chafing gel and swear by it. I use philosophy and really like it.

Meme, awesome! Let me know how it goes! I'm super curious! And yes, Leslie, chafing gel actually makes a great primer.

I second that Monistat for chafing is a great primer. No need to spend on high end primers.
