Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
I get an oozing eczema occasionally on my face.
Usually this starts as a fluid filled sac which oozes for about a day and then scabs over and takes a week or two for the scab to completely fade away.
If I use the topical steroid cream right away it helps some, but not like the Lavender oil.
Once I feel the area filling with the fluid, I immediately started putting the Lavender oil on every 1/2 hour.
It seems to make the fluid recede, and the skin cleared up so much faster than without the Lavender.

It is also used in a healing bath for joint and muscle pain. One study evaluating treatments for children with eczema found [that] it was therapeutic touch from the mother that improved symptoms; in other words, massage with and without essential oils (including lavender) both reduced the dry, scaly skin lesions. Another study found that lavender oil may improve pain control after surgery." | Link |
