Breakfast With Benefits. Since October 29 is National Oatmeal Day, it's a good time to point out that if you're not eating oatmeal, here's why you oat-to: Oats contain both soluble and insoluble fiber. Soluble fibers form a viscous gel that helps to lower cholesterol and stabilize blood glucose levels.
This medication is used as a moisturizer to treat or prevent dry, rough, scaly, itchy skin and minor skin irritations (e.g., diaper rash, skin burns from radiation therapy). Emollients are substances that soften and moisturize the skin and decrease itching and flaking. Some products (e.g., zinc oxide, white petrolatum) are used mostly to protect the skin against irritation (e.g., from wetness).
How to make oatmeal cream lotion for gnat biting itches?
Today we're making a lotioninspired by a lush favorite mine is
called oat milk dream cream and it's a
lovely blend of oat milk with olive oil
and cocoa butter that makes a fantastic
thick creamy lotion that's wonderful for
dry sensitive skin like all lotions this
one is a blend of two parts an oil part
and a water part so the oil part is our
emulsifying wax cocoa butter and olive
oil well the water part is oat milk
vegetable glycerin and silk we'll
measure these out heat them through and
combine them after that we'll blend
everything together with an immersion
blender until we have a beautiful thick
creamy lotion we'll let it cool to more
or less room temperature and then we'll
blend in our essential oils which are
totally optional and are preserved which
is definitely not optional and then
that's it you've got yourself a stunning
lotion that is wonderful for sensitive
dehydrated skin
so come on let's go make some lotion
let's start by combining our oils I've
got a 2 cup heat-resistant measuring cup
there we'll need 14 grams of cocoa
butter 22 grams of olive oil and 14
grams of a complete emulsifying wax
so this one is emulsifying wax nf and no
you really cannot use beeswax it's got
to be a complete emulsifying wax you can
also use polo wax and Mulsim moles or BT
NS 50 in goes the cocoa butter you can
see that this is sort of the dregs of
the cocoa butter it's mostly cocoa dust
and our olive oil
don't use really good beautiful salad
olive oil for this pomace grade is
totally fine
and then we'll get our water part
together so here I have 146 grams of
water and so it's relatively recently
boiled so it's reasonably clean and thenwe're going to add four grams of
vegetable glycerin that's not my
vegetable glycerin this is my vegetable
glycerin four grams of vegetable
glycerin and then because this is an oat
milk dream clean dream cream we're going
to need to add some oats so this here is
colloidal oatmeal and colloidal oatmeal
is basically just oats that have been
blitzed up and then sifted to remove
anything insoluble so that the colloidal
oatmeal is soluble in water so we're
going to add half a teaspoon of this if
you don't have colloidal oatmeal there
is a version of this recipe on my blog
that uses just oats sort of steeped in
the water to make a repiy like omate add
that set this aside and then I'm going
to add some silk because I absolutely
love silk in my lotion so this here is
silk peptides but you can also use silk
powder or silk amino acids I'm going to
add 1/8 of a teaspoon
using these cute little measuring spoons
stat aside
give this a stir looks like I'll need to
get in there with a whisk to break up
that oatmeal so what we're going to do
now is we're going to put both of these
measuring cups in a saute pan here that
I put about an inch of water in I'm
going to take this over to my stove and
I'm going to put this over your low heat
and so what we're looking to do is get
this water hot so that it's steaming and
maybe you see some bubbles forming on
the bottom of the pan but we don't want
it to start boiling otherwise we can
start to bounce some water in here and
we don't want that to happen and so
we're going to bring these to a heat and
hold so we'll leave them on the stove
with the steaming hot water bath for
about half an hour giving everything a
chance to thoroughly melt over here and
the heat and hold will help kill any
bacteria that might be hanging out in
our water part after 25 minutes on the
stove our oils have melted up and our
water is steaming hot and because these
have been in the same water bath we can
guarantee that they are the same
temperature which is fantastic so we can
remove them from the water bath make
sure you dry off the outside of the
measuring cup so we don't incorporate
any extra water and you can set the pan
aside
and just set them down on a dishcloth or
some sort of a trivet so that the
coolness of your counter doesn't cause
your lotion to cool down too quickly and
now we will add the water part to the
oil part you can see this is immediately
becoming nice and milky and uniformed
we're going to get in here with an
immersion blender now for some added
blending power I find that with the
emulsifying waxes like pole wax or
multiplying wax nf you want to have some
extra firepower so that they think
enough quickly otherwise it takes a
couple days for them to become sort of a
full lotioning texture so you want to do
quick bursts otherwise the lotion will
jump the container
this lotion is now fully emulsified but
you can see that it's still super super
liquidy and if I touch it yep it's still
definitely very warm so I'm going to
walk away from this for about ten
minutes to give it a chance to cool down
a bit and then we'll come back and blend
it a bit more and see where it's at it's
been about ten minutes I've given this a
few stirs since then but I have not
blended it anymore
it's not really much more viscous it
does feel much cooler to the touch
though so let's give this a few more
blitzes
as the lotion gets more viscous you'll
find that you can leave the immersion
blender in and do longer blends without
splattering lotion everywhere all right
this is starting to thicken up now
keep blending once you're at the point
where the lotion is thick enough that it
can start supporting air bubbles and
you'll start to see them on the blender
when you pull it out that's about when
you should stop blending the lotion or
you're just going to start blending in a
bunch of air so use your spatula to
scrape off any excess lotion here and
set that aside and give this a stir make
sure you scrape up the sides and get
down to the bottom
so that's still pretty warm so I'm going
to leave this for another ten minutes
before we add our essential oils
ten minutes later we've got a beautiful
thick lotion here it's warm but not hot
so we can add the rest of our
ingredients and also set this aside
we're definitely not going to be needing
it anymore for the essential oils we'll
be adding
benzoin rose or you can use rose
geranium instead it's much much less
expensive
chamomile tea tree and lavender so I'll
have ten drops of benzoin benzoin is
quite thick and a little bit blobby
so we'll sort of call it 5 blobbs it's
not as potent as other essential oils so
don't worry too much if you end up
getting a little too much
we're going to need four drops of rose
absolute 12 drops of chamomile this is
Roman chamomile but if you have South
African chamomile that's also really
lovely four drops of tea tree and seven
drops of lavender I'll give that a good
stir and last but not least we'll add
our preservative so you need a
broad-spectrum preservative whenever you
make anything that contains water, you can look at other preservatives that you might want to use instead and learn how much to add. because it does vary depending on the preservative but
it's usually a fairly low percentage
somewhere from sort of 2% down and that in and now we're ready to put our lotion in our container I've got this cute little jar with a Mason top lid probably found a set value village knowing me
give that a whack to settle everything
down we'll add the last of it
I love these spatulas and make it so
easy to get as much lotion as possible
out of your your measuring cup and into
your container so cleanup is much easier
there you go let's give a little test
lovely pop our lid on there and you're
done you just made oat milk dream cream
thanks so much.
Oatmeal has active properties that help soothe insect bites and allergic reactions, chicken pox, and dry skin. You can add oatmeal to a bath or apply it as a mask on your bug bite. Make a paste by adding a little water to colloidal oatmeal and apply to the affected area. Wash it off with warm water after 15 minutes.
