DIY Natural After Sun Soothing, Cooling and Cleaning Wipes - w/ Aloe Vera, Peppermint and Rosewater. Homemade Recipe.

I bet it happened to most of you: you're in the car driving home after a few hours spent on the beach. Your skin is not only sweaty, thirsty and covered with sand, but the sunscreen also made it super sticky. Yeah, it's summer "fun", baby!;-) Since I hate having my skin go thru all this summer "fun" madness, I came up with this quick and easy DIY - after sun cleaning, soothing and cooling wipes. Now, it's one of the most important products in my beach bag - after sunscreen and sunglasses of course;-))) And to be honest I used my very first bag at home the same day I made it - I kept wiping my face, my feet and legs;-))) It's just so cooling, soothing and moisturizing, yet it doesn't give you any greasy feeling you get from some lotions and creams. Perfect for summer! It was love at first use;-)))

WHAT I USE (ingredients for 10 wipes):

--1 tbsp Aloe Vera Gel - soothes, heals and re-hydrates skin

--8 drops of Peppermint Oil - kills bacteria and has an amazing cooling as well as healing effect

--1/2 cup Distilled Water  

--1 tbsp  Rose Water - optional - helps retain moisture, nourishes, cools and refreshes skin

Additional: 

--Spray Bottle

--Ziploc Bag 

--Dry Floor Clothes - I got a pack of 20 at Dollar Tree

 

 

HOW I MAKE THEM:

I first mix together aloe vera gel and peppermint oil. After that I add rose water and distilled water, pour the mixture into a spray bottle and then spray it onto the wipes. I then store the wipes in a Ziploc bag. And that's it! Try them out and you might fall in love with them as much as I did;-))))
