Aloe vera: Aloe vera may help. You can scrape the pulp from a leaf and spread it on your face along with a cool, clean washcloth. There are also some good aloe vera lotions that may be less messy -- but make sure to pick one that does not have alcohol in it. If this inflammation persists, please see a dermatologist. And, take special care in future use of waxing products on your face.
