They are so natural and healing. Because they tend to be greasy you only need a little bit but I no longer buy anything from the store (they are full of chemicals).
Tons of recipes on the internet. Okay, I'm done!
I am another with eczema and for years baby cream in the pink tube, since nothing else worked, but they quit making it! I had a dear friend make me some lotion with Shea butter, coconut oil, and marijuana oil only, as my Christmas gift. I love it! It takes just a dab, and no smell, not greasy, and my hands have not been this nice in many years. Great stuff. (I live in Oregon, where marijuana is legal for all adults)
