Skin Rashes Can Be Calmed With All Natural Skin Treatments

Now and again we suffer from skin rashes whether it’s an allergic reaction, bug bite or just hormonal occurrences. And all at the wrong time, wrong place with no quick resolve. But here are a few items that every woman should have coveted in her purse and home for those OMG occasions.

Quick Fix for Skin Rashes that occur all-of-a-sudden while away from home

• I always keep a product with Aloe Vera in my purse; it will help calm any itching and goes to work to begin healing right away. If you can find it in a stick form, it will work for chapped lips, burnt skin from small sunburns and to calm redness and itching.

Overnight solution for Skin Rashes

• Mix a small cup of baking soda with water and apply to the rash. Baking soda has natural healing properties that take the sting and itching sensation away. It is also great for all types of burns and was one of the ingredients hospitals used for burn patients. This mixture can be messy when applied but it has this cooling affect that works quick.

Do not apply alcohol to skin rashes. Although it feels cool it can strip the skin of essential oils and makes the skin rash look more inflamed and red. Instead use witch hazel and dab on with a cotton ball.

After a few applications of the baking soda, apply Aloe Vera to the area.

• Another great natural solution for skin rashes are cucumbers. Strain or juice some cucumbers and apply the juice directly to the skin rash. It has a cooling effect and will draw out the redness from the skin.

Help with Eczema and Psoriasis

• There really isn’t a cure for eczema or psoriasis but it can be effectively treated so that it stops continuous breakout episodes. Apply creams or essential oils containing calendula, fish oil or omega 3 oils and take probiotic vitamins.
• Many times if you detox your body you’ll notice the eczema or psoriasis will improve. This doesn’t mean you’re cured but it can open up a new way of living for you.
