I apologize if I am missing a thread already containing this information, but I was wondering if anyone had a good recipe for homemade lotion that would work well for really dry skin. I got sun-burnt a couple weeks ago, and I am trying to find something good to use to help my skin from being so dried out. Thanks for any ideas.
I dont' have a recipe for anythign that you can make..but Burts Bees Carrot lotion is the BEST that I have sound for sunburnt skin. My husband does landscaping and he uses it regularly, and his skin looks good!
i use aloe vera lotion, cocoa butter or shea butter lotion on my skin. It used to be really dry but now its so soft. Hope this helps!!
When I have a sunburn, I put vinegar on it to take the sting out and then use a lotion that has shea butter, aloe vera, and cocoa butter in it too. It really seems to cool it off and it helps with the healing too. Much less peeling.
I read something today when you have a sunburn to spray Original Listerine on it...I would also use a good lotion after that though.
Read up on Aromatherapy and go to www.aromavera.com Very kool site for this stuff too. Lavender oil is very good and can be directly applied to the skin too.
