I hope y’all had an amazing Fourth of July because I know we did!

We spent so much time outside and you know what that means, lots of fun, lots of sun, and lots of bug bites.

Did you know that out of 2,000 sunscreens reviewed, more than 75% were found to contain toxic chemicals?

Or that common side effects for insect repellents include skin reactions, allergic rashes, and eye irritation?

Also, many topical medicated creams for insect-bite itching and irritation have side effects causing redness, irritation, and swelling.

So here are a few of my after fourth favorite DIY home remedies.

Sunburn Spray

1 cup aloe vera juice

1/4 cup fractionated coconut oil

1 teaspoon vitamin E oil

8 drops lavender

8 drops Melaleuca

8 drops Roman chamomile

Combine ingredients in a 16 ounce glass spray bottle. Shake well and spray onto sunburned skin. Repeat as needed.

Bug Repellent

10 drops lemon grass

10 drops lavender

10 drops geranium

10 drops peppermint

fractionated coconut oil

mix essential...
