How to tame a sunburn

On Sunday August 28th at 2:30 I looked up to see one of the booth proprietors of the Swanzey Bazaar returning from a day out of the building. She had spent the day outside at the Newfane Flea Market. I gasped when I saw how red her back was. I called her name and followed her to the chair she sank into near her booth. She was there to check on her absentee business.

As I watched she began to shake, goose bumps began to form on her arms, and yet her forehead and upper lip showed forming presperation. 'I think I'm going to faint', she said. 'Stay with her!' I said to her friend and ran to my booth and brought back Young Living's LavaDerm, Lavender and Peppermint. 'May I please give you a Love Gift that might help that burn, Lee?' 'Help me, oh help me' she said. She was now beginning to breathe heavily with increasing anxiety.

I quickly spritzed her with LavaDerm. I watched her carefully. I began to speak to her in very slow loving tones. Her rapid breathing subsided. 'Oh my God', she said 'That feels so good, so good.' I spritzed her again and waited. It was as if her skin drank up the beads of LavaDerm before my eyes.

'Can we add some Lavender now?' I asked. I actually wondered if I could touch her flesh at all. I dropped the Lavender on her hands and asked her to breathe slowly and deeply. I then directed her to place her hands over her chest area closer and closer until she felt comfortable to touch the area. 'Put it on my armms and back, please'. We kept covering her with the Lavender.

Within ten minutes we were able to spritz Peppermint on her and she was laughing and crying with relief. There were bystanders who were totally amazed at the results were we seeing with our own eyes. Time passed and the sunburn crisis was over. I gave her the LavaDerm, Lavender and Peppermint to take home to use faithfully. I called and called her to keep a check on her. There was never any answer. I had told her to see her doctor. So - I thought that maybe but - no I knew better. I had seen a dramatic change in the firey redness of the burn and the skin that showed every sign of blistering. The burn and her flesh had been tamed.

It was several days before I saw her. She had a lovely tan. NO BLISTERING, PEELING OR SKIN DAMMAGE! She never missed a day of work. In fact she had put in several days of overtime. There was a tiny area. It was just beyond her reach where the oils missed their mark. There I saw slight blistering and peeling remnants.

As she proudly showed people, at the Bazaar, who had witnessed the incident. They could see the blessing of Young Living Products. I am so grateful, so very very grateful that I was there. This is a testimony as to THE WHY I AM A PROUD YOUNG LIVING DITRIBUTOR.
