Peppermint Foot Cream

1/2 cup Aloe Vera Gel
1 1/2 tablespoons Cornstarch
1 tablespoon Witch Hazel
2-4 drops of Peppermint Essential Oil

Mix aloe, cornstarch and witch hazel in glass bowl. Microwave 1-2 minutes, stirring in 30-second intervals. Cook until mixture becomes clear and thick. Mix in the peppermint essential oil and store in an airtight container. Smooth on feet after using the foot scrub.

An Additional Foot Tip:
If you work out, apply Peppermint Foot Cream before exercise. Research shows the aroma of peppermint can help you work harder and faster, resulting in more calories burned during exercise.
