DermTV – Home Remedy for Sunburnt and Irritated Skin [DermTV.Com Epi #015]
Spend the weekend outdoors and wake up on Monday to find yourself with a nasty, stinging sunburn? Or have you found yourself with a skin irritation caused by a brush with Poison Ivy or something else? Milk to the rescue! Let Dr. Schultz explain how to use this household item to sooth any skin irritation. Transcript: A really great home remedy for irritated skin like sunburn or poison ivy is milk and water compresses. It’s very simple. Put equal amounts of milk and water in a bowl, room temperature, take a smooth material like a T-shirt or handkerchief, put it in the liquid, wring it out half-way and apply it to the irritated skin for about 5 or 10 minutes. The evaporation of the liquid causes a cooling sensation, makes your skin feel better, and the protein in the milk buffers the irritated skin and goes a long way toward making it feel better. And by the way, use skim milk, not whole milk, because the fat in whole milk doesn’t help, it’s just the protein in the skim milk, and you’ll find relief every time. www.dermtv.com Like Us On Facebook facebook.com Follow On Twitter: twitter.com [ABOUT DERMTV] Everyone can have beautiful, healthy, and younger looking skin, and DermTV, the Internet’s daily skincare video show, will demonstrate how by revealing expert tips and techniques and by providing real solutions for real skincare issues.
