Ingredients
1 cup pure aloe vera gel (I bought Organic at Mt. Rose Herbs)
1 tablespoon witch hazel
30 drops (1/4 tsp) tea tree oil
10 drops lavender oil (or essential oil of choice)
3-4 drops vitamin E oil (optional)
Instructions
In a small glass dish, add the essential oils and stir.
Add the witch hazel and vitamin E oil and stir again.
Add the aloe vera gel and mix very well.
Using a funnel, pour the mixture into your container of choice.
Shake well before using.
Notes
The
vitamin E oil helps to soften hands and will extend the shelf life up
to 3-4 months. In either case, the sanitizer should be discarded after 6
months.
How Much?
This
recipe filled 3 travel size (3 oz) squirt bottles. To fill just one 3
oz bottle, use 1/3 cup aloe vera, 1 teaspoon witch hazel, 10 drops tea
tree oil, and 3 drops lavender oil.
