Safe Alternatives for Baby and Child

Our children’s skin is so delicate and so sensitive.  Especially to the powerful summer sunshine!

As parents we are always doing our best to keep our kids from the getting a sunburn, especially knowing the long term dangers that they can create.  Unfortunately, we don’t always succeed.  So, if your child has a moderate sunburn, try this natural approach to soothing and healing their precious skin.

Kayla Fioravanti, a certified aromatherapist, says if you get a sunburn apply some lavender essential oil to the areas.

You can either use it directly out of the bottle onto your burns, which is perfect if you have a very bad burn.  Or you can drop some into a cool bath and/or you can add a few drops to some Aloe Vera gel before applying.

Treating a Sunburn Naturally

“I always go for the straight stuff right onto my burned skin. Lavender is the most used essential oil in aromatherapy.  It also has amazing properties that come from the natural chemistry of the plant to soothe burns.  It offers amazing relief for sunburns and it is safe enough to be applied directly to the sunburn.”
