Poison Weed Rash Relief


Now that Spring is right around the corner and everyone will be spending more time outdoors, it's a great idea to keep a batch of this oil blend on hand. If you have family members susceptible to these villains, get a good field guide with pictures and learn how to identify them. That will alleviate the problem somewhat, but if someone breaks out in one of these colorful, bumpy, itchy rashes, try the following remedy:

5 drops Chamomile
2 drops Geranium
5 drops Lavender
5 drops Tea Tree

Mix the above oils into 1 cup of water. Use in one of the following ways:
*Spray this blend on the affected areas. Allow it to dry naturally.
*To relieve a large area of skin, you might like a bath. Add 4 drops of the essential oil blend and 1/4 cup plain dry oatmeal, to a tepid bath. Soak until you feel better.
