Good Afternoon, My husband has psoriasis and has been going for light therapy for over 6 months. Well, needless to say he has been getting burned 2 – 3...
Infuse St. John's wort in the lightest oil you can find (olive, almond, whatever you can get). Add a few drops of lavender oil per cup of infused St. John's....
Greetings! I have to be careful of my sun exposure, since I'm white as a ghost and burn in about 10 minutes' direct exposure. Here's what I use: 1) Calendula...
Are you asking for a preventative or a afterburn remedy? If it is afterburn, you need to cool down with vinegar or peppermint water or just plain ol' cool...
Fascinating, I haven't tried that but I heard from someone that uses calendula tea with unflavored gelatin that it worked well on burns. Though he had to keep...
... Any herbal preparation will go bad after 3-5 days, I suppose the gelatin retards the spoilage but three weeks is a really good time for something like this...
I know this is going to sound strange, but it really works for both. I'd burned my scalp and at the time was using this natural Sray Leave-In Conditioner and...
i used to work in a coffee shop and got burned all the time. I used plain old black tea (orange pekoe and aloe juice (not jell, juice from a health food store)...
How about using fresh aloe vera from the leaves? Get a plant, grow it up some, pick and split a leaf anytime you need one. Squeeze out the fresh gel and...

Aloe vera is a very easy plant to grow and found in most nurseries (at least where I would shop in NY and CT). I used to keep on near my kitchen for years for...
... i also know people who filet the leaves (?? fronds, stalks dont quite know the correct terminology for succulents) and use them that way, a few who swear...
Both this vinegar remedy and the black tea remedy are going to be very drying, something the psoraisis does not need. Great for regular sunburns I'm sure, but...
... That's what I do - they're great for sunburn! ... I haven't come across this use - must give it a try for my arthritis. Sinech. -- No virus found in this...
I have all the ingredients to undertake making a rose cream with the exception of Orange Blossom Essential Oil. I held off on this ingredient due to the...
... Um. Orange Blossom Essential oil is also Neroli. I suspect you could subsitute Orange Blossom water for some of the Rose water, if it's the recipe I'm...
M'lady, While working in the Middle East this past summer as an archaeology field student, I discovered that plain yogurt, smeared on right after a burn both...
Thus spake Lady Dianaim ingen Eochada: Does anyone have a sunburn recipe that they are wiling to share? Both he and I can't stand the smell of the commercial...
doh! Well I feel a bit sheepish. Yep, yogurt. Forgot about that one. It's been years since I was told that remedy. Guess I need to dust off my brain shelves. ...
You can get some inexpensive essential oils from www.cedarvale.net BUT--I have substituted many different essential oils for the orange blossom. I have even...
