So am doing aloe vera for my skin which is suffering from acne :( am using the actual plant. But I've understood that it has to be sticky. This is what I extracted from the plant. Is it right?

Yup! The aloe Vera you get in a bottle from the drugstore (ya know, the usual blue gel stuff) has menthol and stuff added into it mostly to cool a sunburn- but this is the 100% legit stuff! (:

Well I left mine in the plant and broke a piece off and put the aloe Vera on my skin directly from the plant.. Ik it's not a big help but. I'm just wondering how are you going to keep that cool and clean with it in the glass?

Yes its right, for easier application I put the extract in small ice cube boxes and and it froze into little cubes, I rubbed them gently all over my face, its really soothing:)

Well once the cube melts I throw them away. I never tried drinking it though, but I heard its very good for the skin and hair.

Well actually there's nothing to throw since it melts all over your face, I just let it dry for like half and hour let my skin absorb it and whatever is left I wash it off (the little chunks)

Try not making a lot of them, you make like 10 cubes and finish them off in a span of 10 days. I made lots of it and after a few days I saw green deposition over the ice cube, I still used it though and it didnt really matter.
