Eczema relief with essential oils
Eczema affects over 31 percent of the US population, and is best known as a condition that makes the skin red, itchy, swollen, cracked and painful.
Many things can cause eczema, like allergens, smoke, various irritants and even diet and stress, but there appears to be no cure for it.
Well, in today’s video, Kellie Bach will show you how to make an essential oils blend to relieves the effects of eczema. It soothes the skin and repairs some of the damage, too, and you can make this at home.
What you need
You will need some small glass vials with roller tops for application. You can purchase a box of 40 online for about $10. If you don’t have this, you can make due with another container.
A small plastic dropper is great to use, too; making sure the tip fits into the oil containers.
Some basic sticker labels also help to ensure you know what is in the vials once you make them.
You will also need a carrier oil (like argon or sweet almond) and two essential oils for this recipe.
The first essential oil is tea tree oil. This has strobing antiseptic properties, which means it helps clean wounds and prevent infections to open sores.
Second essential oil is lavender oil, which is also a disinfectant and helps to relieves pain and promote blood circulation for healing.
What to do
Now that you have all your ingredients and items it’s time to make the eczema relief oil.
First, it is important to use a carrier oil to help dilute the very potent essential oils.
Begin by filling one of your vials to 90% capacity with the carrier oil. In this video, Kellie uses argon oil.
To this, add about 5 drops each of tea tree oil and lavender oil. You can always add more later, but you can’t take it away.
Close the roller cap or lid on your oils and shake well.
How to apply
Whether you are using a roll on bottle or a spray bottle or other, it is important first to try the oil mix on a small section of skin. This will allow you to see how it feels on the skin and if you have an allergic reaction.
Once that it oked you can apply to the eczema affected areas of your hands or arms or other body part and rub in well, but not so hard you irritate open skin. You should feel soothing relief and can apply 2 or 3 times a day, as needed.
We hope this helps you or your loved on suffering with eczema as it has our daughter.
