February 25th, 2010

You might have tried all the lotions and creams available to treat your eczema, but still you find yourself stuck with it. Well, it is a good thing you found this article! Here you will uncover wonderful home made remedies for treating facial eczema and all of these are applicable to almost anyone. Another great thing about these home solutions is that they are not just easy to administer, the ingredients that you will need can be found right there in your own kitchen – now how good is that right? Read on now and find out how you can fight this dreaded skin condition effectively using only home made solutions.

1.) You need a bag of oatmeal (unflavored variant), warm water and a large bowl. To do this, simply mix the oatmeal with warm water until it turns into a paste-like mixture. Set it aside to cool off. Next, apply it onto your face like that of a face mask, leave it there to dry and then simply wash it off using cold water. Oatmeal is great because it helps reduce skin inflammation, redness and itching. You can also use this as an eczema treatment for children.

2.) You can also apply extra virgin coconut oil onto your skin. First, wash your face thoroughly with a gentle soap to get rid of the dirt on your face. Next, you can either use a cotton ball or your bare hands (just make sure your hands are clean) to apply the coconut oil. Gently rub the oil onto your face and leave it there for several minutes to let the oil work its magic. Rinse it off with lukewarm water and apply a moisturizer on your face afterwards.

3.) Milk can also be used to rid yourself of eczema. Pour a jug of milk into a large bowl and put some ice cubes in it. Set it aside and let it chill. Next, dip a cotton ball in and apply the milk onto the affected areas of your face.
