For skincare: Apply the fresh gel directly to skin for soothing sunburn, hydration, or as a natural face mask. Also used for hair conditioning and scalp health.
Store in the refrigerator, wrapped in a damp cloth or sealed bag. The whole stem keeps for up to 1–2 weeks refrigerated. Once cut, use the gel within 2–3 days and keep covered.
