After-Sun Soothing Spray


About the Ingredients
Aloe Vera has been used for centuries for its skin soothing and moisturizing properties as it is reputed as being naturally rich in protein, calcium, magnesium, zinc, vitamins A, B12, C and E, essential fatty acids as well as amino acids and skin rejuvenating enzymes. Witch Hazel is a medicinal tincture created from the leaves, flowers and bark of the hamamelis tree, also known as Witch Hazel Shrub. Witch hazel contains procyanadins, resin, and flavonoids, all of which add to its soothing, anti-inflammatory properties. Fractionated Coconut Oil is the liquid form of coconut oil that has been fractionated by steam distillation to contain only the medium chain triglycerides, which gives this oil an indefinite shelf life and will provide the after-sun soothing spray light, moisturizing properties that won't clog pores. Lavender Essential Oil has a healing effect on burns and sunburns. Peppermint Essential Oil provides a dual-action warming/cooling sensation and is reputed to be beneficial for relieving itching, inflammation, sunburn and muscle ailments.
