Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/3 cup witch hazel extract
  • 1 Tablespoon Aloe Vera Gel
  • 1/2 Tablespoon vegetable glycerine
  • 5 drops lemon Eucalyptus oil
  • 3 drops geranium oil
  • 5-10 additional drops of scented essential oils to improve fragrance

Instructions

  1. My personal favorite is a combo of cinnamon and patchouli oils for fragrance. Wintergreen and Lavender are also nice.
  2. Mix well, pour into spray bottles. Reapply frequently if near water or very sweaty, as it is not waterproof.
