List of Ingredients



• 1/2 cup aloe vera gel
  
• 1-1/2 tsp cornstarch
  
• 1 Tbsp witch hazel
  
• 3 to 4 drops peppermint oil
  






Instructions



1. Combine the aloe vera, cornstarch and witch hazel in a heat-resistant container. Warm the mixture until it is a clear, thick liquid about the consistency of honey. (You can do this in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds for 1 to 2 minutes on HIGH, or in a double boiler on the stovetop.)
   
   
2. After the mixture has cooled, add the peppermint oil, and stir thoroughly. Pour into an airtight container.
   
   
3. Massage this lotion into your legs and feet for an instant pick-me-up.
