How to extract Aloe Vera gel at home: home made skin care tips with aloe vera gel Choose the leaves of the plant carefully, the leaves in the middle of the plant contains most of the gel as they leaf are juicer, soft and widest there. Cut the leaves at an angle from the base of the plant. Now, stand the leaves upright for 15 minutes to allow the sap to drain out. The sap is a yellow colored fluid which will ooze out the moment you cut the leaf. Allow it to drain out completely. Later on wash the leaves to remove the remaining sap from the leaves. Lay the leaves flat on cutting board and carefully cut the sides of the leaves which will contain thorns from both the sides of the leaves.
