Traverse Bay Bath and Body Colloidal oatmeal (oat flour), 32 oz Great for soap making

We had been struggling with my 3 year olds eczema for about 2 months. It literally came out of nowhere and exploded all over his legs and bottom. We tried SO many things including changing his diet and using probiotics to heal his gut. Nothing was working.This is the only thing that helped and it was right from the start. Gave him a bath with about 1/2 cup dissolved in the tub and the redness went away immediately and the skin was much much smoother after the bath. We've been giving him an oatmeal bath every other day ever since. For the most part it's kept the eczema at bay with just a few small spots on his shins. But no more constant itching or rough patches and I even think it's helping to fade the dark spots which he got from the irritation of the dry skin patches.Highly highly recommend. Also, we follow up the bath with the Aveeno eczema cream or the Lush Dream Cream (both have oatmilk in them) and PRAYER!

Clean and very easy to use. We add this to our lye solution while making cold process soap.

As other reviews have said, using Aveeno Baby Excema Therapy bath soak was getting expensive so I tried this as an alternative and it works even better, plus it doesn't have all the unnecessary added ingredients. Baby's skin was nice and moisturized. It is clumpier than the Aveeno but that's not a problem for us.

This was exactly what I was looking for and it arrived quickly.

Excellent value. Felt good on my Shingles irritated, painful skin. In the tub it has a pleasant, very slight cooked oatmeal scent. Holds in suspension in the water quite well, with very little settling out.

not milled enough

My tot has eczema and so we give her oatmeal baths often, every night in the cold months of the year. We were using the Aveeno stuff but that gets really expensive when you are using it every single day. I found this and hoped it would be powdery enough. It is not as powdery as the Aveeno, but it is fine enough that it rinses out of her hair and doesn't stick to her skin. My husband and I feel that it actually does a better job at moisturizing. I'm really happy to have found this!

Things I'm taking into account and reasons why it gets 5 stars . It's some of the cheapest colloidal oatmeal I've ever been able to find . I seen on person say it leaves residue in tub . Even top brands do that except this one tends to be a little more gritty . Take it, put it in a blender and for the price your just simply not going to do any better . If I could figure out a way to make it have it bitty amounts of moisture to have a few more clumps in it then it would be perfect . I'm assuming that's how more expensive brands do it . If not I'd like to figure out how .
