Oatmeal Masks!

9 Jan

Do you suffer from severe dry skin like I do?  Or are you just a little dry around the edges?  Either way, I have discovered the wonderful things that are oatmeal masks.  For years, I have suffered from serious dry skin and embarrassing hives.  This winter has been particularly bad on my face.  Every time I get out of the shower, my face is stings like crazy.  Even heavy moisturizers like Eucerin Cream aren’t working.  It just makes my face hurt worse.

Then a friend shared with me her secret.  She has the same problem except on a far worse level (she’s allergic to eggs, milk, grass, grains, etc.)–you name it, it causes her to break out in itchy, dry skin and hives. Well she told me the recipe for a face mask that she puts on every night, and I decided to try it out.  To my shock, it actually helped quite a bit.  And, it is far cheaper than the creams I was using.
