I was looking for a menthol blast to my post shave routine and I came across this recipe. I've never made my own aftershave, but the idea appeals to me - especially as I can tweak the formula.
Does anyone "brew their own" post shave concoctions? Any tips? Any other recipes?
Here is the recipe.
Minty Menthol Aftershave
Combine 3/4 teaspoon glycerine, pinch borax, tiny pinch menthol crystals, 3/4 witch hazel, 10 drops peppermint essential oil, 10 drops sandalwood essential oil, 2 drops lavender oil, 2 drops rosemary oil in a container with a spray nozzle and shake well until all borax and menthol crystals are dissolved. Spritz on to skin after shaving.
