Best Oatmeal Soap for Eczema
Dealing with eczema-prone skin can be challenging, but finding the best soap can make a world of difference!
Is oatmeal soap good for eczema?
Oatmeal has long been celebrated for its soothing, moisturizing, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a natural choice for those with sensitive, eczema-prone skin. Here are some other oatmeal soap benefits for skin to consider:
- It acts as an exfoliant, washing away dirt, oil, and dead skin cells.
- It helps to moisturize and reduce skin inflammation
In addition to ground oatmeal, using goat milk soap can make all the difference in the world because of the power of goat milk. This brings us to our next point...
What soap is best for eczema?
Honey oatmeal goat milk soap is the best oatmeal soap for eczema, hands down.
Here's why:
Every soap needs a base. Many store-bought brands use water as their base, which can be very drying to the skin. Here at Faith Farms, we use goat milk as the base of all of our natural soaps because of its' rich, nourishing properties.
In short, here's why goat milk soap will help your skin conditions, such as eczema:
- Provides gentle exfoliation, removing dead skin cells
- Its a natural cleanser with anti-bacterial and antioxidant properties
- Promotes skin cell growth, wound healing, and maintaining a healthy skin barrier
- Fills cracks in the skin and seals in moisture to keep skin hydrated
- Heals acne issues, uneven skin, dryness, and wrinkles
- Protects against fine lines and dry skin
- Fights free radicals and helps sun damage
You can learn about even more of the benefits of goat milk for all skin types.
In addition to the wonderful benefits of goat milk, specifically goat milk honey soap is even more healing for eczema because of the ways honey is known to heal skin sensitivities.
In conclusion, using the power of organic oatmeal, along with goat milk and honey, wrapped into one natural soap bar is the perfect remedy for your irritated skin!
Other Ways to Settle Eczema Symptoms
1. Examine the products that touch your skin
As stated at the beginning of this post, it's important to examine, not only the soap you're using, but all of the products that are touching your skin.
Most self care products on the market today are full of chemicals, harmful synthetic fragrances, and toxins that are dangerous to your overall health, including your skin. This is why switching to natural products is so important. (At Faith Farms, we use only natural, simply ingredients.)
Here are just a few toxic items that could be irritating your skin:
- The laundry detergent you use
- Lotions
- Any bath bombs you may be using
- Perfumes
- Any other bubble bath or bath products
Oftentimes simply switching to a natural non-toxic laundry soap can stop eczema in its' tracks. You may not realize it, but most store-bought laundry detergents are full of toxic chemicals that can cause irritated, itchy skin.
To be sure you're using all natural products, that also provide the benefits of goat milk, honey, and oatmeal for your skin, we've put together a natural oatmeal soap and products bundle!
2. Soak in a goat milk soap oatmeal bath
Doing this will provide you with all the benefits we discussed in the first section of this post, but it will give you a chance to soak your skin in the nourishment of oatmeal and goat milk for longer.
Plus, who doesn't want an excuse to enjoy a nice, relaxing bath? 🛁
Our shredded goat milk soap is perfect to do this!
3. Look into the use of essential oils for eczema.
At Faith Farms, we use essential oils in the majority of our goat milk soaps, so you can enjoy the benefits of essential oils on top of the soothing properties of goat milk!
4. Some say coconut oil or castor oil may help
We've never tried either of these personally, but there's some interesting info saying castor oil or coconut oil could help soothe your eczema. However, we say just go with the honey oatmeal goat milk soap option because we've seen it work for so many!
5. Start checking ingredient lists
When you look at the ingredients on a product, they should be very easy to pronounce. If it looks like a different language, it is probably full of a lot of toxins and harsh chemicals that you need to avoid to protect yourself from eczema.
6. Releaf Goat Milk Soap
This amazing soap has all the benefits of goat milk and contains oatmeal, with the added benefits of plantain, horsetail, and chickweed! This combination encourages skin regeneration, has a natural cortisone-like effect and, therefore, is very soothing to skin and conditions like eczema.
