aloe vera gel recipe - #21456
I am really confused about this whole aloe vera gel recipe thing. Like, I’ve been trying to find a way to make my own aloe vera gel at home because those store-bought ones are just packed with chemicals, right? A few weeks ago, I got a sunburn that made my skin peel and feel super irritated, and I heard aloe vera is like a miracle for that stuff. So, I went to buy a plant, and now I have this huge aloe vera plant sitting on my windowsill. I cut a leaf off and tried using it directly, but then I started Googling for a proper aloe vera gel recipe, and there’s so many different versions! Some say you should blend the pulp, some mention adding lemon juice or essential oils, and others insist you need to strain it to get the right consistency. I don’t wanna ruin it! Should I be using the whole leaf for the aloe vera gel recipe or just the inside part? What’s the best way to store it after I make it? Does anyone have a foolproof aloe vera gel recipe that won't go bad in a few days?! I’m kinda lost here and wanna make sure I do it right because my skin really needs this right now, ya know? Also, how do I know if my aloe vera gel turned bad? Any advice would be super appreciated!
