Aloe vera packs are definitely good for soothing.
The method is simple: apply a generous amount of aloe gel to your face, then moisten a cotton pad with water and place it over the gel. The specific brand of aloe gel doesn't seem to matter much, but I personally use Sidmool or Bring Green products. While some people use face-shaped sheets, I prefer to tear up cotton pads to apply them more tightly and without gaps. The photo shows it applied to the forehead. Here's a tip: refrigerating the aloe before use maximizes the cooling effect. I highly recommend this for those with sensitive skin.
