I'm looking for something refreshing to use on my legs and feet at the end of the day.
I have not seen very much product with peppermint, or peppermint smelling that you can use on legs and feet.
The only two I know of are Body Shop has a leg cream,it is $20 and not too natural..so do not really want that one.
I have bought stuff from the brand Deep steep and they are all natural and have a Candy Cane leg cream for $10.
the review I read online said it was a nice product.
I have their spearmint and melon body lotion and while that is refreshing I want something minty.
I think Freeman might have something,but that line is not sold anywhere near me.
What else is there that is resonable in price that has mint in it and also smells like mint?
I have an Arnica leg gel that is great,but it is drying and I do not want to use that all the time.
Don't want to spend too much hopefully as I am on a budget the next few months at least. |

I just buy peppermint essential oil and add it to unscented lotion or cream at 10 drops per ounce. Or use it in Jojoba Oil.  |

She mentioned that Josh, but it's $20 and not natural, that's why I suggested making your own?it's really cheap and you can pick your unscented base!  |

That's a good idea!
I guess I could do that, peppermint oil is easy to find.
I have a lot of unscented lotion here..so maybe I can just add a few drops to whatever lotion I take out of the bottle....
I am not against the Body Shop..just I find for what you get there is better things.
I have some Body Shop shower gels here and they seem quite drying and not really worth the full price (I actually had some $10 off coupons a year ago...so was worth it then,lol). |

Lol,
I remember the "old" Body Shop used to be more affordable too.
I don't like how they hide the ingredients on most of their packaging either...
I also remember the old Aveda line before they were bought out and they were sold in Salons before and it was only hair stuff..or mostly hair stuff.
-one salon I've gone to for ages actually used to sell Aveda years ago.
-Now they sell Abba..which is a wannabe Aveda and affordable.
It is just a hair like andI still like some of those items.
I think Burts Bees might have a peppermint thing I'll have to check online.
I need to use up tons of Aveeno, so maybe mixing the peppermint drops in my hand will be better since those bottles might be annoying to blend stuff into!
-that way i can use more or less peppermint as desired.
on my trip to the mall tommorow..peppermint is on my list! |
