It is hard to stay cool on a hot summer day where the sun is trying to smack you with heat. Luckily, natural peppermint spray can keep you cool even during hot summer days. The credits of this incredible property go to the menthol contained in peppermint essential. Which hazel and aloe vera are also products that have cooling properties, and mixing both of them with peppermint essential oil will work wonders.

INGREDIENTS
- 5 drops of peppermint essential oil
- 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel
- 2 ounces of witch hazel
- 4-ounce spray bottle
- 2 ounces of distilled water

Add Essential Oil
Now, it is time for the MVP. Add in 5 drops of peppermint oil and make sure not to add more because the oil is very strong.
Now, you’re basically done, just pour the final mix in a spray bottle and shake it well for additional mixing.

You can even spray it on your feet because it is very effective on the feet soles. If you want the next level cooling, keep the spray in your refrigerator and you’ll be surprised. You can always keep a small additional cooling spray in your bag to keep yourself cool at all times.
