- 1 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup flaxseed
- 1/4 cup lavender buds
Process the oats in a blender until powdery (2 minutes in my VitaMix). Add flaxseed and process for another minute. Add lavender buds and process for another thirty seconds.
To use: moisten a palm-full with warm water until you have a paste. Gently rub over face and rinse with tepid water. Follow with cold water, aloe gel and lotion.
Notes: This has been great for my eczema. I’ve been using it for several months. The flaxseed keeps it from becoming a gooey mess when warm water is added. It also adds just enough scrubby-ness but not so much that it aggravates any eczema patches. The lavender makes it smell really nice too.
