Making  gel at home is fairly easy, and this way you are guaranteed to use the pure product, without additives. Here’s how:

• Select the Right Leaf

Select the thick outer layer of the plant used, with mature or large leaves. Most of the time you want to wash and wash your hands and the leaf before you go there.

• Extract the Gel

Sever the leaf at its bottom, allowing the yellow latex to drip down. Cut the leaf in half length-wise and with the help of a spoon scoop out the clear gel. Just steer clear of any part of the green leaf, as it’s no good for skin.

• Store Properly

You can keep it preserved by pouring it over a bit of wheat germ oil or lemon juice. Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for one week.
