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.
This summer I was camping a lot and started noticing that my armpit was itching me frequently. When I was back home, I finally took a good look and noticed a severe red rash with big white pimple-like bumps.
I looked for rashes and similar stuff online, and I believe that my rash was folliculitis. The websites suggested that I go to a doctor for an antibiotic. However, I am a registered nurse and generally avoid pharmaceuticals and doctors as much as possible.
So I looked up which essential oil is good for rashes, and Lavender oil popped up. I had some on hand, so I began treating my rash right away.
I have now been applying several drops of Lavender essential oil on the rash neat (undiluted) morning and night for about a week. It is almost gone and not itchy anymore.
