by Cassie on April 30, 2012
Are you are looking for a nice
recipe for a simple, yet luxurious homemade skin moisturizer containing
oatmeal
for a soothing, skin softening and moisturizing cream? Possibly one that
can be used as a a
great option for eczema and other skin conditions without
paying the hefty price? Then check out our
personal homemade recipe for our
easy homemade skin moisturizer. We have a son with eczema and
the creams you
buy can be very pricey! So I combined many of the common components used in
many
eczema and other skin moisturizer creams to create this soothing skin
cream. And at least for our son,
it works well for his eczema!
In addition to treating our son’s
eczema, this has been an amazing treatment for our dry skin. If we
are
experiencing some really dry weather causing those dry, cracking hands, we’ll
lather this cream
on our hands and cover with a pair of socks or gloves to soak
it in all night. It works amazingly well
in our dry climate!
Here are the ingredients needed:
- 1/4 cup of oatmeal/oats
- 3/4 cup of coconut oil
- Few drops of rosemary oil
- 1 tbsp of olive oil
Now that you have your
ingredients together – let’s get started on making a super Easy Homemade
Skin Moisturizer!
How to make Easy Homemade Skin
Moisturizer:
- You will first need to finely ground the oatmeal to a powder/flour consistency. You can use a
- blender, food processor or a Magic Bullet type of appliance to finely ground the oats.
- Over low heat, melt the coconut oil until it has a liquid consistency.
- Add a few drops of Rosemary Essential Oil
- Then mix in the oatmeal flour until well blended.
- Mix in the olive oil until well blended.
- Once the ingredients are mixed, pour into a small storage container or glass baby food jars, etc.
- Let harden for several hours.
After it hardens, simply apply to
hands and skin as needed for skin softening, moisturizing, soothing and
healing. This stuff also lasts forever!
