Mentholated after-sun spray
Les Mauvaises Herbes
An ideal mixture to quickly calm overheated skin, better suited to the body than the face. The cooling effect of this minty spray is much appreciated during heat waves, but you can replace the mint with lavender if you want a subtler refreshing action.

Ingredients
- 50 ml of peppermint hydrosol or true lavender
- 50 ml (3 tbsp + 1 tsp) of aloe juice
- 60 drops of spike lavender essential oil (Lavandula latifolia)
- 100 ml spray bottle *
* The spray format lets you apply the product without having to rub the skin too much.
You read that right! The recipe contains no dispersing ingredient to dilute the spike lavender essential oil. That's why you must shake the bottle well before each use.

1. Pour all the ingredients into the bottle and mix by shaking vigorously.
How to use it
Shake the bottle well before each use. Spray on sunburns from about 5 cm away from the skin. Spread without rubbing.
Tip: This recipe also makes an excellent after-shave or after-waxing treatment (careful, it can sting on a cut!).
