Review on 🛁 Baby Oatmeal Bath Treatment Powder for Hydration, Soothing, and Eczema Relief - Irene Organics (1 Pack) by Brandi Williams

When my 1 year old gets really bad eczema he won't stop scratching the affected areas and it won't stop until I diligently give him oatmeal baths and then liberally apply oil, lotion/balm and even hydrocortisone. I used to only use Aveeno Oatmeal Baths, but I came across this brand and liked some of the ingredients. Marshmallow root, calendula, and chamomile powder are known to be good for skin health, so I wanted to give it a try. I use 1/4 to 1/3 of a baby bath of warm water and then mix in 2 scoops of this oatmeal mixture. At first I noticed that there were a lot of lumps and it was difficult to find all the dirt-like lumps (whereas Aveeno Oatmeal dissolves instantly). This inconvenience was a bit annoying at first, so I did a little research to find out what ingredient might be creating this consistency, and it looks like marshmallow root powder is the most likely culprit. But then I read how great it can be for sensitive skin, so I just resigned myself to the existence of knots. However, for now I'm trying to completely dissolve two scoops in a small container by rubbing it between my fingers, and then I mix it all up in the bath water. After an oatmeal bath, I rinse with water and pat dry with a soft towel. I then noticed that my child's red, inflamed skin calmed down a little after just one bath. I love that this brand's oatmeal blend was so effective, and while Aveeno appears to be cheaper, I actually think this product is more competitively priced due to its effectiveness. I'd say that one container lasts at least 10 baths, if not a few more. I will be sticking with this oatmeal dip in the future!
