Aloe Vera 4 U

"I have been applying creosote to my wooden fence;  and usually in the past, if I get splashed, it really stings the skin and causes a nasty rash.   However I now apply Aloe Vera Gelly on my face, hands and arms and problem solved immediately.   It protects the skin while you work and you can just wash it off afterwards.   Brilliant!   I would recommend you to try this with any stain or preserve you may use for that DIY job."

"My top tip is to gardeners: I have found that spraying cucumber leaves with a mild solution of MPD and water controls mildew, a very common problem with cucumber/courgette plants."

"While gardening my arms were scratched by the bushes, causing them to be quite red, sore and itchy.

I sprayed Aloe First on each arm, then gently rubbed it in.   The result was amazing, the itching and soreness were soothed immediately, after an hour or so there were no signs of the scratches!"
