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.
