When you want the most out of this plant, do not settle from what the cosmetics offer you. Go for the pure and natural aloe vera itself. Have a plant with you (and grow many others from this one plant) and then use the gel that comes out after you cut a little piece in its fleshy leaves. Do keep in mind that the gel stays potent for a maximum of 30 minutes or so, and hence should preferably be used as soon as its cut. You can also store the leaf/ piece of plant in the fridge for later use.
