how to make aloe vera gel at home (DIY)
Removing the green parts using a knife and extracting the gel
Ingredients
- 1 Big size aloe vera leaf
- a knife
- a blender or mini juicer
- a mini bottle (to store the gel)
Instructions
- Take a big size aloe vera leaf, cut off the ends that give out yellow liquid.
- Remove the edges and sides of the aloe vera leaf using a knife.
- Be careful handling the leaf as it is very slippery while peeling.
- Make sure after peeling only the white part or gel is left out.
- Cut the white gel into small pieces.
- Transfer the gel chunks into a blender.
- Do not add water and blend the pieces until a thick frothy gel is formed without chunks.
- Transfer the gel into a small container or a bottle.
- This gel can be stored for at least 2 weeks if stored well in refrigerator.
- The extracted gel can be applied externally for face, skin or hair and see the results.
Notes
- Since it is a fresh and pure gel, use it in 2 weeks and make fresh gel again which can be made in 5 to 10 minutes.
- Use this gel for facial purposes or for moisturizing the skin or mix with oil and apply it on scalp or hair.
