You're going to need to cut down on using olive oil when the weather gets warmer, otherwise, most people can lead to yellow pimples, if, you're not careful enough.

I've got fresh aloe vera growing in my backyard and will make the switch in summer

It's been a while since I last approached this sample and it damn well froze my head off and I had to go chasing it down the hill. This time I was more or less ready for it, but I still had a bit of a fukkityfuck moment when the menthol hit. I've been told that the LL&C splash is "a bit much", and I believe it. Still a bit left, so I might get used to it...
