To ensure that the condition does not worsen and avoid side effects, natural treatment for Eczema is recommended. What options are available and how do you prepare them?

Coconut oil is the most straight forward option for this skin condition. This oil sinks into the skin and in the process reverses the deficiency that causes most of these skin conditions. Coconut oil is made of lipids which are better for your skin than ordinary oils. The oil is applied directly on a skin that is moist using ordinary water. This oil should be left on the surface for the entire day.

The extremity of skin conditions depends on each individual. Jojoba oil has proven effective on a range of skin types because its molecular composition include bee wax. Other oils are bonded by artificial or synthetic elements. The presence of alcohol in jojoba does not lead to a dry skin. The best way to use jojoba is by massaging the surface to push it deeper. Application thrice a day produces excellent results.

Butter is used alongside other oils. Butter has excellent healing properties that reduces inflammation, softens the skin and repairing it. Butter is thickened using bee wax which plays a double role of protecting the skin. Butter is prepared by melting in a bowl in readiness for application. During melting, you are allowed to use aromatic oils.

You are allowed to alter this ratio in case your skin reacts with this concoction.

Put in place a long term plan. You will need to catalogue all that goes into your body and applied on the skin. It helps you to monitor the allergens and irritants that cause irritation.

Honey is a common for use on skin conditions and has been used for centuries. Honey is preferred because of its excellent healing properties especially on broken skin.
