Ingredients
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 tablespoon bentonite clay (remember not to use any metal when using bentonite clay, as this will react with the clay making it less effective.)
Water/witch hazel to form a paste (I often use witch hazel for its astringent properties as well as its ability to help relieve itching.)
5 drops lavender essential oil (optional - highly antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic)
5 drops peppermint essential oil (optional - helps reduce itchiness and inflammation)
5 drops chamomile essential oil (optional - helps reduce inflammation and is a natural antihistamine)
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 tablespoon bentonite clay (remember not to use any metal when using bentonite clay, as this will react with the clay making it less effective.)
Water/witch hazel to form a paste (I often use witch hazel for its astringent properties as well as its ability to help relieve itching.)
5 drops lavender essential oil (optional - highly antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic)
5 drops peppermint essential oil (optional - helps reduce itchiness and inflammation)
5 drops chamomile essential oil (optional - helps reduce inflammation and is a natural antihistamine)
Directions
- Combine all of the dry ingredients in a small bowl.
- Slowly add in the water/witch hazel until a smooth and creamy paste forms, then add in the essential oils if using.
- Apply to itchy bug bites, chicken pox, rashes, and more! If you use distilled water this may last in the fridge for longer than a week.
