I've been using Pure Aloe Vera gel (99.9%) for 4 days and I've had excellent results I can even say it's cured my acne so far. It hasn't caused any breakouts, it doesn't block pores, it's not greasy, dries up excess oil. My regime is: rinse my face with warm water at night then apply the gel. In the morning I re-apply gel without washing face and my skin looks great. I haven't experienced the symptons you have but I guess everyones skin is different. I read this stuff about it:

ALOE VERA

Vitamins - A (as b-carotene), B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, Folic Acid, C, E, Choline
Minerals - Calcium, Chromium, Copper, Iodine, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Molybdenum, Selenium, Silicon, Sodium Chloride, Sulphur, Potassium, Phosphorus, Zinc.
Amino Acids (20) used by the body to make proteins (including all of the essential amino acids that the body cannot produce itself).
Uronic Acids - strips toxic materials from cells to aid detoxification.
Fatty Acids - natural plant steroids which are anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and help cells function correctly.
Sugars - mucinous polysaccharides (including acetylated mannan or acemannan) which are used by the immune system, help detoxify the body, line the gut, aid absorption from the digestive system, lubricate joints, protect cells and aid gaseous exchange in the lungs.
Enzymes - used by the body as a catalyst for chemical reactions.
Saponins - form foam in water solution, have natural cleansing and antiseptic qualities.
Lignin - a wood-like pulp which has the ability to penetrate skin.
Anthraquinones - (14) natural pain killers and anti-microbial agents.
Salicylic Acid - an aspirin-like compound that is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial

Hope some of this helps.

Later
