Poison Ivy Relief Aloe Gel

Author: Mama Z

Supplies

Ingredients

  • 1 drop lavender essential oil
  • 1 drop Roman chamomile essential oil
  • 1 drop eucalyptus essential oil
  • 1 drop peppermint essential oil
  • Thickened aloe gelly

Instructions

  • Add aloe and essential oils in a small glass and mix thoroughly until the gel takes on a milky appearance.
  • Using a funnel and a spoon, pour the mixture into your flip-top bottle.
  • Apply as needed until your skin no longer itches.

Notes

If you want a thicker product, use Aloe Vera Gelly with added vitamin E and C.
*You can also use the equivalent in fresh aloe vera gel taken right from the leaf. Simply cut a leaf in half lengthwise, exposing as much surface area as possible. Use a spoon to pull out the aloe vera. If using this option, be sure to store your product in the refrigerator as it will go bad and separate if kept at room temperature. I also recommend blending using a Magic Bullet or an immersion blender in a glass measuring cup.
