Thanks to all of the rain here in California this spring, they're predicting a very buggy summer. That includes those blood suckers also known as mosquitoes - our real life vampires. I seem to be particular tasty and allergic to their bites. I also like to avoid harsh and potentially toxic chemicals not only in my body - but on my body.
Recently, I was in Temecula, California, and treated my sister and myself to luxurious pedicures at the Grapeseed Spa located at the South Coast Winery. Not only was the pedicure FABULOUS, I also now have an insect repellent to ward off mosquitoes. I've been rubbing a raw garlic clove on my skin which works, but is aromatic not in a good way.
Monika Beaudoin, who did my sister's feet and toes, shared her recipe for mosquito 'no' munch. This definitely smells better than garlic cloves.
Here's what you'll need:
- 15 drops of eucalyptus oil
- 15 drops of lavender oil
- equal parts distilled water and unscented witch hazel
