Castor Oil, Lanolin

My daughter had a rash below her nose/above her lip. It was red, dry, and embarrassing to her. She had had a cold, so I thought it was a rash from a runny nose. But the cold was long gone and the rash remained.

We tried several things before we came upon our solution.

Over the winter, I had mixed equal parts of lanolin and castor oil. (I melted the lanolin a bit and mixed in the castor oil.) The resulting salve is still quite greasy, but easier to apply than lanolin or castor oil alone. I used this on my son's very chapped hands at night and they would be so much better in the morning. So, my daughter used this mixture on the rash each night and it healed up quite nicely in a few days.
