INGREDIENTS: lavender oil
INSTRUCTIONS: my husband is in the army, and while on a mission he realized he forgot to pack his razors, being a medic he had acess to
scalpels, so he shaved with a scapel on a moving bus. Needless to say he cut himself up pretty bad his face looked like he stuck it under a lawn mower. when he got home the same day we applied lavender oil to his face it only takes a few drops the stuff is a very strong natural antiseptic, apply twice a day best in am and at night rub in till absorbed all the way, fixed my husbands face in two days

Ingredients: tea bags
Instructions: to stop a wound from bleeding, place a tea bag on the wound and it will stop bleeding.I've found that if you live by an ocean-- the salt water really helps cure cuts and scrapes fast. my family just goes for a swim and usually the next day is amazed how fast a cut has cleared up.

I've learned that if you have any cuts or scrapes that swimming in the
lake
will help heal it faster.
