The scorching heat of summers are troubling our skin. We need to protect our skin, cool them down, and keep them healthy & hydrated during the summers while even ensuring to maintain that perfect glowing look. So here's a quick look on How to Make Aloe Vera Gel at Home in 5 Minutes using fresh Aloe Vera leaves:


Aloe Vera is being referred to as a wonder plant that is being used by generations to grow since thousands of years for its medicinal benefits to our skin, hair and health. 

There are several brands that are available in markets that sell Aloe Vera gel like Patanjali Aloe Vera gel, Lakme Aloe gel, Wow Aloe Vera gel, and many more. All of these gels are easy to use and very easy to apply. But the purest and the most beneficial of all these marketed gels are the homemade fresh Aloe Vera gels that can be prepared without using any artificial color or chemicals. 

Aloe Vera plants are very easily available in the markets and in nurseries. So we can easily afford buying 2 pots of Aloe Vera plant for our own skincare routines. And then its very easy to prepare Aloe Vera gels at home within minutes. Here's a quick process to make the gel at home:

How to Make Aloe Vera Gel at Home?
  1. Take 1 big or 2 small sized fresh Aloe Vera leaves
  2. Wash the leaves and let it dry in standing position for few hours
  3. Remove the bottom part where you could see some yellowish sticky liquid as they may cause irritation to your skin
  4. Cut the teeth, the side portions of the leaves using a knife
  5. Tear the upper skin
  6. Once peeled, then gently scrape out the gel from the leaves using a spoon and keep collecting in a bowl
  7. Crush all the scraped gels in a mixer grinder to make it light and fluffy. You may even use hand blender of folk
  8. Beat or grind until no chunks are left, and then transfer it into a bowl
  9. Add 1 Vitamin E capsule to the blended gel
  10. Add 2-3 drops lavender or orange or any other essential oil
  11. Add 3 drops rose water
  12. Beat them for 1 or 2 minutes using a folk such that it mixes up really well with the prepared gel
  13. Your homemade Aloe Vera gel is all ready, now transfer the gel into a dry airtight container or tube
  14. Refrigerate and store this gel for up to 3 weeks in your refrigerator
  15. Apply it directly on skin as a moisturizer, or use it in your favourite face packs, or add it in your hair pack
Vitamin E and essential oils act as natural preservatives to the gel while also helps in improving your skin elasticity, smoothness and health. Both of these ingredients are very beneficial for your skin as well as hair. This method of preparing Aloe Vera gel at home is one of the easiest and the most simple way of preparing this gel like a market. This simple formula of preparing homemade gel can do wonders to your skin. So apply this home made fresh Aloe Vera gel on a regular routine basis to your skin and hair. Make Aloe Vera your favourite potted plant in the balcony this summer, and try utilizing its leaves for several health benefits apart from skin and hair care routines.
