Cool as a Cucumber!

With the summer heat in full swing out here on the west coast, I have been so thankful to have my Soothing Aloe Relief lotion by Jergens to slather on at night.  Not only does this lotion smell amazing (cucumber and eucalyptus) but it really softens and cools down skin on contact (even without having to store in the fridge).  The lotion contains glycerin, which we all know helps to seal in moisture, but it also contains aloe (well, no duh since it's in the name) which helps to heal sunburned skin.  If I even spend a minute in the sun without sunscreen (which I never do, Mom!) I burn ridiculously fast, so having a great lotion like this one on hand would make the healing so much less painful.  I find it especially useful at night when I can't seem to cool myself down.  I just put some of this on my feet and neck (or anywhere feeling particularly hot) and I instantly feel more relaxed.  Breathing in the sweet smell of cucumber never hurts either!  At $5.99 for a 10 oz bottle, it's a mistake not to own it during the summer.
