Gardening and planting my summer garden is one of my favorite things to do! I just love it! When we finally got our fence done, I feverishly worked on getting my garden boxes done and planted.  It was a cloudy day, my baby was sleeping, and my toddler was helping.  It didn’t even occur to me to put on sunscreen.  I didn’t even realize how burnt I had become until I went to get in the shower.  That’s when I took this picture.
Fortunately, it didn’t hurt too bad but as soon as I got out of the shower, I went to the oils! There are a couple different remedies and options.

Sunburn Soothing Gel

(this is the one I used, and then switched out peppermint for frankincense once it cooled a little)

• 1 tsp of aloe vera
• 2-3 drops of lavender oil
• 1-2 drops of peppermint oil

Sunburn Spray #1

• 16oz. glass spray bottle
• 1 cup + 1 tablespoon Aloe Vera Juice
• 1/4 cup Fractionated Coconut Oil
• 1 teaspoon Vitamin E
• 8 drops lavender oil
• 8 drops melaleuca oil
• 8 drops Roman Chamomile oil

Sunburn Spray #2

• 20 drops of Lavender
• 10-20 drops of Pepeprmint
• 2 ounce spray bottle
• Fill the remainder with either water or fractionated coconut oil.

(Once the initial sting is worn away, you can trade the peppermint oil for frankincense oil)

• 1 tsp of aloe vera
• 2-3 drops of lavender oil
• 1-2 drops of frankincense oil
