Homemade Lavender Rosemary Rash Ointment




1 cup coconut oil
Corn starch
5 drops each Lavender & Rosemary essential oil
In a double boiler, melt the coconut oil, do not boil. Remove from heat. Add a few drops of the essential oil.   Stir gently. Add cornstarch to the coconut oil, stirring the whole time. You want to add enough cornstarch until the coconut oil is really thick like an ointment. Spoon into an airtight container and let cool. Use as needed to treat rashes & chaffing. This costs about $2.00 per batch and lasts a long time. Lavender and rosemary essential oils are good disinfectants and are healing and soothing.  Coconut oil has antibiotic qualities that will help heal as well.
