Homemade Beauty Treatments

Oats have been used in beauty treatments for centuries. Their texture makes them a perfect skin exfoliant. They’re also great for face masks and skin cleansers, which you can combine with other natural ingredients.

Oatmeal baths are great for calming sensitive skin – they can help to relieve the itch from chicken pox, exzema and other uncomfortable conditions.

All of these lovely face masks, hand and body scrubs, and bath soaks and milks are made from store cupboard ingredients. Give them a go - your skin will thank you for it.
