Itch Relief
A cooling oatmeal and baking soda paste calms mild itchy skin from dryness, minor rashes, or bug bites.
What you'll need
- 2 tbsp finely ground oats
- 1 tbsp baking soda
- Water, to form a paste
Steps
- Mix ground oats and baking soda with a little water into a paste.
- Apply to the itchy area.
- Leave on for 10–15 minutes, then rinse with cool water.
Tip: Widespread, worsening, or long-lasting itching deserves a dermatologist's opinion rather than ongoing home treatment.
