A Recipe From Ellen Whealton: DIY Peppermint Foot Cream
Here's a great DIY recipe for creating gifts, party take-homes, or for treating yourself to some pampering! It has an invigorating sensation – the combination of aloe and peppermint feels cool and refreshing. Adding the Lavender to this soothes your skin and creates aromatherapy to calm your mind and promote relaxation.
You may like trying this with sugar added to create a DIY body scrub.
Ingredients:
1 cup of coconut oil – the kind that's solid at room temperatur
½ cup aloe vera gel
15 drops Lavender essential oil
10 drops Peppermint essential oil
Note: You can add more or less of the above ingredients.
Directions:
1. Add all ingredients into a glass bowl or a stand mixer if making a larger batch;
2. Whip ingredients together for a couple of minutes. You'll know it's done when it is light and fluffy!
3. Scoop it into glass jar(s) with an airtight lid(s), then store in a relatively cool spot so your mixture doesn't liquefy too much. Small glass mason jars work perfectly for this!
