Essential Oil Blend This blend was designed to help cope with the pain of sunburn. Excessive sun tanning is dangerous, initiates freckles and promotes skin cancer. It is healthy to expose our skin to sun but not to exceed 20 min. a day. When the skin gets red after the sun exposure it is a sign that it was too much of it. The skin may be burning. To alleviate this pain, dilute 50x this essential oil blend, preferably in aloe vera gel and gently apply to the skin. If aloe vera gel is not available, use aloe vera juice or even plain cold water. Alternatively, dilute it in a high quality carrier oil (vit. E and antioxidants won't hurt as well). Applying this blend without dilution may make the matters worse, so please refrain from it. Essential oils: German Chamomile, Geranium, Helichrysum, Lavender, and Spearmint essential oils. |
