This was going to be my first attempt at making anything homemade of this type. Because Dylan and I have skin reactions to most things, such as lotions and body washes Etc. I needed to do a bit of research on components needed to make these things at home. To be completely honest, it is extremely expensive to start making your own soap and lotion. Once you have most of the essential oils you need to make the things that you use every day, the oils will last a really long time. The oils needed for the recipe that I found in Cleopatra choice's free downloadable recipe book eczema relief butter were coconut oil, lavender essential oil, cedarwood essential oil, vitamin E oil. I didn’t have any of these, but I was on a mission to make my son some eczema relief butter that I knew exactly what was inside of it. Dylan suffers from eczema so badly, but he also does a lot of self-stimulation which includes a lot of oral stims. I’m always extremely worried about what I put on his eczema because it is on his face, arms, hands and back. He scratches these areas a lot, after he’s done he will do his self-stimulation and will sometimes put his hands in or around his mouth. While even this recipe that I was making is not edible, it still puts me at ease that I know all the ingredients inside of it for sure.
I downloaded this recipe off the Cleopatra's Choice facebook page, HERE. I do recommend liking their facebook page and receiving their notifications as they send out deals and promo codes on there a lot.
