Homemade Eczema Cream/Skin Moisturizer

Recently, when visiting with one of my girlfriends she told me that they had just found out their son has eczema and they were looking for an all natural treatment to soothe his poor little skin so I set out on a mission to find just that for her.  I found this online from The Thrifty Couple and the comments it received from people who suffered with eczema and other skin conditions were amazing so I thought I would share this for all you skin sufferers out there.

This recipe can be used as a daily skin moisturizer to prevent eczema from flaring up, if by chance it does still appear this helps to nip it in the bud quickly! You ready for the best moisturizer recipe ever??? Well, let's get to it!

Homemade Eczema Cream/Skin Moisturizer

Items needed:

1/4 cup of oats
3/4 cup of coconut oil
A few drips of rosemary oil (optional)
1 tbsp of olive oil

Recipe:

1.  Finely grind the oats to a powder/flour consistency and set aside. (You can use a blender, food processor or a Magic Bullet type of appliance.)

2.  Over a low heat, melt the coconut oil in a pan until it has a liquid consistency.

3.  Add in a few drops of Rosemary Oil (if you are adding it.)

4.  Add ground oats in the pan and mix until well blended.

5.  Now, pour the olive oil into the mixture until blended.

6.  Once all ingredients are mixed, remove from heat and pour into a small storage container.  (It filled up 1 1/2 baby food jars.) Let it harden for several hours.

Now that your recipe is complete... Apply to hands and skin as needed and feel the magic at work!  This recipe lasts for a long period of time so enjoy!

WHY OATS?  Oatmeal contains healthy fats.  When they come into contact with your skin, these fats help to add moisture to soften and repair your skin.

WHY COCONUT OIL?  Coconut oil works wonders as a moisturizer for all skin types, especially dry skin and aging skin, leaving your refreshed and looking wide-awake.  The fat in the oil helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles without any irritation.

WHY OLIVE OIL?  It is a great skin moisturizer, in part because it contains linoleic acid, a compound not made by the body, but which prevents water from evaporating.

WHY ROSEMARY OIL?  Rosemary essential oil helps in toning your skin and removing dryness.
