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.
My husband plays men's slow pitch softball and their team had entered a tournament. I packed up the kids and we were off. It was a cool day, we were all dressed in sweatshirts and I didn't even think about getting burned. We sat down on the lovely, very shiny, aluminum bleachers where I remained for the next 3 hours.
By the time we left, I knew I was badly burnt! You all know the feeling....and it just got worse. I am a redhead, fair skinned, girl who can get sunburned by just looking at a picture of the sun. So anytime I burn, it is usually bad and I peel and blister.
As soon as we got home, I put Lavender oil and Peppermint oils on my face every .5 hour or so. My skin felt better immediately.
When it was time for bed, I put one last round of oils on, followed by a very thin layer of Animal Scents Ointment.
I got up the next morning and my face didn't hurt at all! I looked in the mirror and, much to my surprise, I was not the slightest bit red!! No blisters or peeling, it was like nothing had ever happened.
How wonderful these essential oils are!

| 1. | Associated topics: sunburn — "Burn Healing Potential of Nigella sativa seed oil in rats.... Nigella sativa L. (Black cumin) has shown a broad spectrum of pharmacological effects like antipyretic [fever reducing], analgesic [pain reducing], anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial.... The present study suggests the burn wound healing action of seeds may be due to anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of major compounds in the oil." | Link |
| 2. | Associated topics: sunburn — "Melaleuca Alternifolia [tea tree] Hydrogel... was compared with tap water as a coolant following application onto a fresh, deep, partial-thickness hot water burn.... Effective cooling of the burn wound and an increased rate of wound healing was achieved by both repeated tap water compresses and by immediate or delayed application of Melaleuca Hydrogel. Cooling is an effective means to reduce tissue damage and increase wound healing." | Link |
