Can someone give me the recipe for a homemade skin cream?

Question

I want something natural and effective without the need of a prescription or side effects to combat an itchy, red, bumpy rash that intermittantly appears on my nose/cheeks.

Answer 1

This isn't a cream, more of a mask, but it should work:

1 tomato, finely chopped

1 tsp lemon juice

1 tbsp cooked oatmeal

*note: tomatoes are highly acidic, so be careful if you have sensitive skin. you can substitute a peach for the tomato.*

Also, avocado is excellent for your skin. I don't know for sure if it takes care of rashes, but try mashing one up and putting it on your face f9r 10-15 min. What have you got to lose?

Lastly, here is an all-purpose salve used to treat everything from itching to insect bites.

2 tbsp St. John's Wort*

2 tbsp calendula*

2 tbsp comfret leaf*

2 tbsp plantain*

1 cup olive oil

1 tbsp Vitamin E oil

3/4-1 cup cocoa butter (solid)

*you can get all these at your local health food store.

So yes, none of these are creams, per se, but they should take care of your problem naturally.
