Oatmeal is highly absorptive, hypoallergenic, and helps
to soften skin. Oats have the best amino acid balance of all
the cereal grains (amino acids work as water-binding agents in
skin care products). Oats have also been clinically shown to
help heal dry, itchy skin. Oat grains and straw appear in shampoos,
dusting powders, moisturizers, and cleansing bars and more. |

Aloe Vera - The juice of this plant helps
reduce pain, gel from plant helps prevent infection and speeds
healing of burns, drink helps reduce size of kidney stones. |
