I have 3 small children and we are constantly dealing with cuts, scrapes and lots of tears. Sometimes even meltdowns.....anyone relate?
I keep this on hand for just such an occasion (translated ~ everyday occurrence! :0) lol )
We keep a bottle of this with us wherever we go!
Cuts and Scrapes Spritzer
12 drops Lavender
8 drops Lemon
8 drops Bergamot
Couple pinches of Epsom Salt
Witch Hazel
2 oz. spray bottle
Use code "sonshine" at Spark Naturals for a 10% discount!
(be sure to always shake a little prior to each use)
Just drop the essential oils in the 2 oz. bottle and then the epsom salt and fill to the top with witch hazel.
The salt in this does give it a bit of a sting, but my kids still ask for it when they get an owie. I think they like it because they know it will soon feel better and will be gone quickly.
I linked up here....
Please leave me a comment. Thank you,
Dawn

Awesome idea! I'll have to try this concoction out. I have three little ones, so I can totally related to the frequent scrapes and falls- and the ensuing meltdowns, unfortunately. I always keep coverlet adhesive dressing with me when we go on trips. I think it's a psychological thing- just like your kids feel better when the spray bottle comes out, mine feel better when the scrape is all covered up and out of sight.
