You should start by cutting off the tip and the sides of the leaf. Note that you shouldn’t make the upper cut wider that a finger because the gel will ooze out instantly.

After you’ve done that, use a thin knife to separate the inner layer. Do this slowly. Then cut the middle, and scrap the layer of gel using a spoon. Pour the gel in a container and put it aside to use later.

Every part of the Aloe Vera can be used. Take the peels and use them to make a natural face mask which will rejuvenate your skin
