- Peppermint Essential Oil (Mentha piperita) - 10 drops
- Lemon Essential Oil (Citrus limon) - 10 drops
- Distilled Water - 60 ml (2 oz)
- Witch Hazel - 30 ml (1 oz)
- Polysorbate 20 (emulsifier) - 3 ml (0.1 oz)

Caution: When using essential oils, it is crucial to always dilute them with a carrier oil or in a diffuser, as applying undiluted oils directly to the skin may cause irritation or adverse reactions.
Additionally, it is highly recommended to perform a patch test before using any essential oil for the first time.
To conduct a patch test, dilute a small amount of the essential oil in a carrier oil and apply it to a small area of your skin. Wait for 24 hours to observe any signs of redness, itching, or irritation.
If you experience any adverse reactions, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional. Remember, essential oils are highly concentrated plant extracts and should be used with caution to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
