Last weekend we spent quite a bit of time in the great outdoors having fun w/ our extended family! We got a bit of sun for the first time this year and most of us went home sporting sunburns! My mom is a huge believer in aloe and I am too actually, but I wanted to try some essential oils as well. I took a little 2 oz spray bottle and filled it about 1/4 full w/ aloe gel then I added 10 drops of lavender and 10 drops of peppermint. I filled it the rest of the way with water and put it on my hurting forehead and nose! Almost instantly my sunburned areas felt so much better! The peppermint and lavender really did the trick! I'm hoping I won't peel...time will tell!
