The sun beat down on his weary back. It had been a long day toiling in the fields. The days were long and hard but the money earned for his family was worth it. The sun’s intensity had only increased with each passing hour and now his skin was burned red and hot, the heat radiating.
Returning home, his wife took out a tub of cooling aloe vera gel and into it mixed peppermint oil, lavender and german chamomile and tenderly applied it to his back. The heat instantly dissipated and he knew that he would sleep well, ready for the next days work.
After Sun recipe

Please always use essential oils with considered care, just because something is natural it does not mean its safe. Always consult with a qualified aromatherapist if unsure especially pregnant women.
