Eczema and Oils

So, this is very random but I woke up late last night with a itching burn on my neck. I didn't know what  it was or what was happening to my neck but it was quite painful.

When I got up this morning it was still there and I realized after doing some research it was eczema. I had red itchy patches just behind my ears and down my neck and just around the base of my hairline a red patch was starting to blister.  Man, talk about itchy, burning pain. I am obviously having an allergic retain to something I ate. -Raspberries and gluten, mixed, that my stomach is trying to digest and it's causing it to go on over load. So it's secreting through my skin.

These are my pictures. As you can see that I have it on both ears and the bottom part of the left picture is where it is blistering. - this sucks 

So in reference to "oils" in my title I wanted to share with you what I've been using to maintain and reduce my sores.

Lavender has a very calming nature and can be used with every allergic reaction to something.
Melaleuca is a very calm but strong fighter.  So gentle, it's gentle enough for children. But it is a great fighter.

So I'm combining these two oils with a little fractionated coconut oil and put it on almost every 2 hours and so far, it's neutralized the pain and I have kept it from getting worse so now, hopefully I'm on the down hill. I will update this post with my results and hopefully this inspires someone to use these amazing oils. Worth a try- and I have samples. :)

So an update:
It is 10:51p.m. and my blister is not crusted. It sounds gross, but it's golden when your looking for progression.  My results are still looking up. I can't wait for it to be gone but I am so happy for my progress.

Another update:
morning of the 15th of October and like I said last night, my blister is all crusted.  The good thing is that it stayed that way throughout the night which means I AM ON THE UP HILL! yeah, I'm fighting this bad boy off and it's working. :) Here is my pictures this morning.

As you can see my redness is really slowed down and improved in most parts. You can also see what my blister is all crusty and if feels and looks gross but, hey! it's healing :) that's the point.


*In addition to using the oils directly on my skin, I thought that because I had ingested something that I probably shouldn't have and they weren't combining well I thought it would be a good idea to do a detox.  So my version of a detox was 2-4 drops of lemon essential oil in a 16oz water bottle and I drank it.  That helped a ton as well because I used the bathroom so much, which I understand is probably more information then you probably wanted, but I'm just trying to give you all the facts here. Winner winner chicken dinner.

Sorry this update took me a while, but after about a week and a half, my eczema is gone.  It's GONE GONE GONE! These oils are fabulous!
