  • In the Refrigerator: Transfer the blended and preserved aloe vera gel into a clean, airtight container. Store it in the refrigerator where it can last for up to one week.
  • Freezing: For longer storage, pour the gel into ice cube trays and freeze. Once frozen, transfer the aloe vera cubes to a zip-lock bag or airtight container and keep them in the freezer. This way, the gel can last for up to six months. Simply take out a cube when needed and let it thaw before use.

Additional Tips

  • Label and Date: Always label your container with the date you prepared the gel to keep track of its freshness.
  • Hygiene is Key: Use clean utensils and containers to avoid contamination and ensure the longest shelf life possible.
  • Avoid Metal Containers: Store the gel in glass or plastic containers, as metal can react with the gel and reduce its effectiveness.

Whether you choose to refrigerate or freeze it, properly stored aloe vera gel can provide lasting benefits for your skin and hair.
