Despite there being a million advanced formulations and treatments available these days for sorting out every known and unknown skin malady, actor Drew Barrymore appears to have got a massive amount of mileage from a simple but efficacious garden remedy!

In a three-part mega-post, Barrymore has Instagrammed about how she received a giant bite or reaction on her face and in light of this, turned to none other than Aloe vera, the fleshy plant that used in all manner of consumer products, including cosmetics, ointments and beverages. However, she had to use it in a very specific way...

In post one, she writes about how she tried to use juice extracted from Aloe Vera but it didn't do anything. And so, she took things a step further and placed a little chunk of Aloe vera right on the problematic portion of her face.

After keeping it there for about three-four hours, Barrymore found that the chunk of Aloe vera was turning red. It was extracting the red from her face!

Finally, in a post she's asking people to not get grossed-out by, Drew Barrymore took out the piece of Aloe vera showing that it hadn't so much extracted whatever it was that had gone wrong with her skin, rather it had performed a full-blown exorcism!

She went on to thank Aloe vera, writing about how it continues to amaze her and of how she has a plant in her New York City apartment just in case!
