Forever Living has been around a while now and although at first I thought it was a fad, a get rich quick scheme and potentially even a scam, I have actually succumbed to peer pressure and given them a try. My friend, a forever living rep, sent me over some samples to try and despite my reluctance I did, now I’m a forever living convert and here’s why.

My review of the Forever Living products
Forever living shampoo and conditioner review
I didn’t really know where to start so I started at the top! I used the shampoo and conditioner and I have to say that my hair felt the best it has felt in a long time. I should mention that I haven’t had it cut in nearly a year (I know, shock horror!) and it is in need of some TLC and these really gave my hair that lift it needed. It was wonderfully silky and soft and my scalp felt completely cleansed. Good job Forever Living!
The Forever Living aloe vera moisturiser
I then used the moisturising lotion on my body and felt an instant lift. It was thick and luxurious but soaked in quickly and left my skin feeling nice and soft.
Forever Living Heat Lotion
As I had just done a workout prior to my shower, my knees needed a bit of attention so I used some of the heat lotion on them. Wow, this stuff is truly amazing. As soon as I put some on, I could feel it getting warm and it was slightly uncomfortable for a few minutes but it started to cool off and my knees felt great. I would highly recommend this for anyone who is very active or who has a problem with their joints, this will definitely help ease the aches and pains.
Edit – The aloe vera heat lotion is the best heat lotion I have ever used. It was so good that I ordered some and will definitely order it again.
The aloe vera tooth gel review
The forever living aloe vera tooth gel is incredible also. It doesn’t taste like aloe vera it tastes like your usual minty toothpastes which is good and it leaves you feeling like your teeth have had a really good clean and are smooth and shiny, like you’ve just had them cleaned by the dentist.
Edit – I have also been ordering and reordering the forever living tooth gel myself for months now and I really do recommend it to everyone I meet. It’s also one of the cheapest Forever Living products so a great one to try if you want the aloe vera benefits without a big financial commitment.
“For centuries, the Aloe vera plant has been used for its cosmetic and health benefits. Records dating back to ancient civilizations throughout Eastern Europe and Africa show that this miraculous plant was as highly sought after for its properties then as much as it is today. Aloe is often referred to as nature’s best gift due to the proven health benefits derived from the gel. Recent studies have proven that drinking aloe gel can greatly improve digestive issues and help to improve your body’s overall defense system.”
Forever Living Popolis creme review
I love propolis in general and used it a lot at drama school to keep me in tip top condition so I decided to give that ago and pop some on my face just before bed. I woke up the next day with gorgeous soft skin and the spots around my chin almost nearly gone! I can honestly say that this product is 100% worth buying. My skin is the best it has looked in a long time! If you are only going to buy one Forever Living face cream then the Propolis creme is the one as it is so multi functional and can be used on dry skin anywhere on the body and as a little bit goes along way it is great value for money and worth every penny.
Aloe Vera Jelly Review
Aloe vera jelly is a must have in everyone’s house, especially if you have children. It can be used on all sorts of things like burns,, irritations and scar tissue. It has amazing healing powers and instant cools the area making it feel better and then continues to work helping the effected area heal quickly.
Aloe Vera Gel Review
I have since tried the forever living ale vera gel. Now this is a bit different tot he other products as you actually drink a shot of it every morning instead of applying it to the skin or using it as part of your beauty routine. The aloe vera gel is thick and tastes awful, I’m not going to lie. However, you do actually get used to it over time and find that you can tolerate the bitter taste as long as you wash it down with something else pretty quickly, I like orange juice after. Once it’s done it’s fine there isn’t really an after taste and it certainly doesn’t leave you feeling sick or anything but like I said it’s disgusting and takes some getting use to. The benefits however do outweigh the taste. I believe it has helped me with bloating and has given me more energy. I haven’t seen any other benefits but it seems to do different things for different people which makes me think it works with your body and helps where it is needed. If you lack energy and often feel bloated and can tolerate a shot of bleurgh then give the aloe vera gel a try. If you are looking at it for other benefits then please do keep looking for other reviews as I know so many people swear by it fr different things.
All in all I have been totally surprised by these products. I didn’t think they would be as good as they are.
