Outdoor Spray & After Sun Mist

So I am thinking/hoping that at some point, this weather is going to clear up and my children will get consistent outside time. (If it doesn't happen soon, I'm going to need a lot more Stress Away...) I thought I would share a few recipes for the items I have at the Gallery! Yup - You're getting the inside scoop! wink emoticon

OUTDOOR SPRAY
1/4 cup Aloe Juice
1 T Witch Hazel
25 drops Purification
25 drops Citronella

Add ingredients to an 8 oz. misting bottle and fill with water. Shake well and spray on before going outdoors. We all know that bugs don't like citronella and the oils in purification are great ones to keep them away, too!

AFTER SUN MIST
1/2 cup Aloe Juice
1 T Witch Hazel
25 drops Peppermint
25 drops Lavender

Add ingredients to an 8 oz. misting bottle and fill with water. Spray it on your skin as needed if you get too much sun. The Peppermint is cooling and the Lavender will help soothe the skin and speed up healing. It's lovely!

I stay stocked up on these oils (and others, of course!) from Spring to Fall. They have SO MANY uses and keeping these two DIY goodies on hand helps to stretch them and makes them easier to use consistently. If you need bottles, I have TONS! smile emoticon It'd be fun to make some smaller sizes, too, to keep in your purse and car.
