Try This DIY Aloe Face Spray for a Midday Pick-Me-Up

A splash of cold water in the morning is a surefire way to wake yourself up. But mid-afternoon, when your makeup is done and you have a work presentation in five minutes, dunking your face is not such a great option. The solution: a cooling aloe spray that you’ve made yourself.

What You Need
 - ½ cup water
 - ¼ cup aloe vera
 - juice from ½ a lime
 - a spray bottle

What to Do: Combine the water, aloe vera and lime in a small bowl and mix thoroughly. Pour your faux cool-breeze mixture into a spray bottle and spritz away. If you close your eyes, you can almost hear the ocean waves. Ahh
