Relieve Sun Burns Naturally

Have you ever gone out in the sun and forgot your sunscreen? That would be a nightmare! Now you have burns all over and you're in pain. I have two remedies that you should do that will increase the healing process and decrease the length of time it takes to recover from it.

~Sunburn healing oil~

Ingredients & Materials:

Jojoba Oil - great base oil, moisturizer, easily absorbed, doesn't clog pores - I use the organic Desert Essence jojoba oil [non-GMO, organic, vegan]

Lavender essential oil - anti-inflammatory, calming, healing - The French swear by lavender. In the 1900's a French scientist Gattefosse was severely burned by a laboratory experiment and dipped his hand in lavender oil. By his surprise, he found that it promoted tissue regeneration quickly and healed the wound without any scarring. WOW! You can find this on Mountain Rose Herbs (Click for the link). There are three kinds: France, Spain, and Bulgaria. I wish the French one was organic but it's only the Spain and Bulgarian so I

would probably pick the Bulgarian one.

Chamomile essential oil - calming, anti-inflammatory - there is a good one on Living Libations(click for the link) . It is quite expensive on the site as it is 40 US dollars I believe for 5mLs but it is organic. On the Mountain Rose Herbs website they has three different kinds. Their blue one is out of stock at the moment (as of May 31 2013) and they have a Roman and Moroccan.  The Roman is organic but it's more expensive than the Moroccan which is not organic.

Vitamin E oil - antioxidant, healing, hydrates the skin, increases cellular regeneration - I use the Now Solutions I got from Natural Grocers. It's 32,000 IUs and it's 100% natural. This is the d-alpha tocopherol which is the
only one that is naturally derived and watch out for the others which are synthetic and don't work half as well.

Bottle container preferable with pump or cap - Sunburstbottle.com for a great variety of plastic and glass.

Additional essential oils: peppermint or ginger for smells ***completely optional***

Recipe:

2 tablespoons of jojoba oil (one ounce or 30 mls)
6 drops of lavender essential oil
4 drops of chamomile essential oil
3 drops of vitamin E oil

2 drops each of any additional essential oils (optional)


Reapply every 2 to 3 hours if needed until recovery.

Directions:

Pour all the oils into a clean mixing bowl and mix very well and put it into a bottle. Then apply a few pumps of the oil base all over the area of burn This works better than anything else out there on the market I promise. This is non-toxic and all natural. You can trust this works and does the job.

EXTRA TIP:

If you want the full effect and trust me guys this works well together. I just had a friend that was out in the sun for hours and came back bright as a cherry. I applied aloe gel [that has been in the fridge]
all over the affected area and letting it dry before applying the healing oil recipe. My friend the next day is not as red anymore which is so surprising because it
