Are you or your child suffering from itchy or irritated skin? Use this simple remedy for skin comfort and anti-inflammation.
You Will Need
- A coffee grinder, blender, or food processor
- 1 c. unflavored oatmeal
- A bathtub
Step 1: Grind oats
Grind oats on the highest setting of your blender, processor, or grinder.
Add a tablespoon of ground oats to a cup of warm water. If the concoction turns milky and feels silky, you’ve ground the oats enough.
Step 2: Fill a tub
Run a tub of warm water and sprinkle the oats over the bottom of the tub. Stir to break up any clumps.
Only use 1/3 cup oats for a baby’s bath.
Step 3: Get in the tub and soak
Climb into the tub and soak for 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 4: Pat dry
Get out of the tub and pat yourself dry. Oatmeal baths can be taken twice a day or more. Let your skin celebrate!
Oatmeal has anti-inflammatory properties and has been used for centuries to soothe skin.
