Does aloevera help as a sunscreen to prevent damage to skin due to exposure to sunlight. I have severe allergy to sun light.

Aloevera, in itself, doesn?t provide any sun protection of its own. It, in fact, cures the damages caused by sun?s rays. So, you can call it more a after-sun treatment than calling it a sunscreen. Aloevera is a very versatile plant which can treat sunburns as easily as it can slow down the aging of the skin. The gel has healing properties instead of protection properties.
