Grahams Body & Bath Oil
With a natural product we eliminate most of the reactions that people may have from using chemical based products or ingredients
We often get questions on "how does this product work for eczema and psoriasis or similar skin problems?" Well, this oil was formulated and designed for people that have reactions and allergies to certain ingredients. With a natural product, we eliminate most of the reactions that people may have from using chemical based products or ingredients.
Our eczema and psoriasis products aim to reduce redness and inflammation on the skin, so it has time to heal. People suffering from such conditions would understand that once you break that initial skin barrier is it hard to stop the itch. Continuing to scratch will cause infection and bacteria to spread, worsening the skin. Here is some more information on Eczema: Here & Psoriasis: Here.
We often suggest using our natural eczema and psoriasis cream in conjunction with the natural bath oil, as it moisturises the skin and reduces inflammation.
What are the characteristics of dry skin?
When your skin is dry, it is not because it lacks grease or oil, but because it fails to retain water. For this reason, a good daily skin care regimen focuses on the basics of bathing and moisturising
What other factors create dry skin?
Wind, low humidity, cold temperature, excessive washing without use of moisturisers, and use of harsh, drying soaps can all cause dry skin and aggravate skin problems.
How do I take care of my dry skin?
The most important treatment for dry skin is to put water back in it. The best way to get water into your skin is to briefly soak in a bath or shower and to moisturise immediately afterwards.
Use of an effective moisturiser several times every day improves skin hydration and barrier function. Moisturiser should be applied to the hands every time they are washed or in contact with water.
The goal of bathing and moisturising is to help heal the skin. To repair the skin, it is necessary to decrease water loss. We recommend that you perform your bathing and moisturising regime at night just before going to bed. You are unlikely to further dry out or irritate your skin while sleeping, so the water can be more thoroughly absorbed into your skin.
If you have hand eczema we recommend that you soak your hands in water, apply prescription medications and moisturiser, and put on pure cotton gloves before going to sleep.
What are the basics of Bathing & Moisturising?
Take at least one bath or shower per day. Use warm, not hot, water for at least 10 to 15 minutes. Avoid scrubbing your skin with a washcloth. Use a gentle cleansing bar, Grahams Natural Soap or Grahams Natural Body Wash, not a chemical based soap. During a severe flare, you may choose to limit the use of cleansers to avoid possible irritation.
While your skin is still wet (within three minutes of taking a bath or shower), apply any special skin medications prescribed for you and then liberally apply a moisturiser. This will seal in the water and make the skin less dry and itchy. Be sure to apply a moisturiser on all areas of your skin whether it has or has not been treated with medication.
Just as it is important to use proper bathing techniques, it is important to properly apply moisturisers to your skin within three minutes of showering or bathing.
While your skin is still wet apply a moisturiser to all of your affected areas.
How does water help my skin?
• Water hydrates the stratum corneum (the top layer of skin).
• Water softens skin so the topical medications and moisturisers can be absorbed.
• Water removes allergens and irritants.
• Water cleanses, debrides, and removes crusted tissue.
• Water is relaxing and reduces stress.
