Eczema Meets the King

Eczema is awful. My heart goes out to anyone who suffers the outbreaks, itch and unsightly look of eczema. This means my heart goes out to myself because I have occasional eczema outbreaks.

Recently, I've had a pretty bad eczema outbreak....actually the worst one I've ever had. While a couple spots on my arms and hands (and one on my leg) responded well to an oil blend, the eczema on my scalp did not. After treating it with a blend of tea tree oil (melaleuca), lavender and myrrh oils, I was not seeing any progress. Don't get me wrong, tea tree, lavender and myrrh are all great oils to blend for eczema. Like I said, it worked on my arms and on one spot on my leg. But it did not work on my scalp.

In fact, it was getting worse every day. Although it started at my hairline, it began spreading down my forehead, leaving it red and painfully raw. I would press on it with the ball of my hand to relieve the itching. I was afraid it would spread to my eyes.

So, I introduced my eczema to the king. Yep, that's right, the king of oils, frankincense.


My formula was simple:


I put 10 drops of frankincense oil in a 10ml roller bottle and topped it off with fractionated coconut oil.

Overnight, the spreading had stopped and my forehead was clear. By the end of that first day using it, the frankincense had dried up the eczema at my hairline. Because it was still itching, I continued to use it for several days to ward off anything that was brewing below the surface where I could not see.
