Guest guest Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Hello,Has anyone heard of a cream,ointment,or poultice made with stevia that is used for the treatment of skin problems? I also need some information on what to use as a base for my own herbal skin formulas.I have family members with different skin issues and need a base that is readily absorbed by the skin and will carry the medicinal properties with it.How do you know which method to use to treat skin ailments(ointment,poultice,or cream)? Can anyone help with this? I am fairly new to this group and I appreciate all input.Looking forward to sharing,and thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 I use centrifuged virgin coconut oil as my base for my creams because it is easily absorbed by the skin. Make sure you get a very good one that does not go bad easily. I don't use other liquids aside from essential oil or melted beeswax. Coconut oil is sensitive to water...it can go bad even good water would affect it.

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 This is interesting. What else besides stevia do yoou put in the ointments? What types of things do you put the ointments on? Rashes or something else?
