You know, at first I too used just Aloe Vera gel for my Nuface but then learned that it's too weak of a conductor to really work optimally....read below.
I tell ya, I learn something new everyday and bang my head daily over changing info, etc!!!
"The Ideal Building Block for Conductivity
There’s no doubt that the texture and moisturization of aloe vera gel is an ideal foundation for any good conductive gel. However, even though aloe vera also has the ability to conduct microcurrent, this is merely because aloe vera is 99% water, a naturally conductive material.
Every conductive gel requires a supplemental material (such as copper, zinc, sodium, or acid) in order to properly distribute the microcurrent signals across the surface area of your face. This is because the presence of electrolytes dissolved in water creates a supercharged path for electricity to pass through. Without it, water itself is a pretty poor conductor--so aloe vera alone may just be too weak of a vehicle for microcurrent therapy.
But don’t worry, the consistency of aloe vera still makes for a powerful lubricating sidekick to help your microcurrent device glide over the skin smoothly, so it’s not out of a job yet!
