Is it gluten-free? I'm sure it is, but, I don't have a bottle handy at the moment. I'm red as a tomato. Got cooked because I wasn't suppose to be in the sun because meds (was in the pool for three hours). So yeah. I'd hate to go to the store and find I wasted my time.

Thanks

Pure aloe vera gel is from the aloe vera plant - no relation to wheat. Always read the ingredients on whatever you buy, though.

As for the sunburn, there's a theory, however, that you want to encourage the peeling, as it's your body's way of getting rid of the skin cells that were most damaged by the sun, so you might not want to use any aloe. You could look for a spray based lanicane that will aneasthecize the area to reduce the pain and swelling. Ice is also good.
