Description

Easy to make anti-inflammatory oatmeal bath for dry or irritated skin. Simply dissolve in bath water and soak in it for awhile. The soak is finely powdered to dissolve well in bath water.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup of oatmeal, quick oats
1/2 cup of Epsom salts
2 tbs baking soda
10 drops of lavender essential oil

Instructions

Place ingredients in blender and pulse until the oats are finely ground.

Add mixture to warm bath and soak in it for 15 to 20 minutes.

Notes

If treating chicken pox or poison ivy add 4-5 drops of tea tree oil. This helps dry out the pustules and prevents infection if they break.
