Learn how to make this all natural eczema salve that helped us get Rocket’s baby eczema under control for less than $80.00/year!
Rocket has eczema and it got quite bad in her first year of life. We spent hundreds of dollars trying various treatments and were on track to be spending more than $650.00/year on lotions and cream alone. It was extremely disheartening and difficult, but that’s a topic for another video.
After spending a lot of time trying everything we could, we finally found a recipe that worked for Rocket and her skin. This salve is fantastic for moisturizing her dry, cracked, and flared skin. We moisturize Rocket’s entire body with it every night and it has helped keep her eczema under control. We also use it daily for our skin. Not only does it work for us, but it costs us less than $80.00/year for all of us to use daily.
Please remember that just because it worked for us, it doesn’t mean it will work for you. There are plenty of remedies that appeared to work for others that didn’t work for us. We did need to use hydrocortisone in the beginning when it flared very badly. We still use hydrocortisone every few months when a problem spot might pop up due to exposure to certain irritants. However, this salve has been fantastic for maintenance and keeping it under control.
