What’s the shelf life on this?
I typically make up enough to last through a use or the day. Otherwise, I would give it 4-7 days. I don’t think it would go bad past that, but I like to use it fresh.
Can you refrigerate for a long shelf life?
Potentially. I usually make it fresh
Can olive oil be substituted with coconut oil?
Yes
Doesnt putting oil on a burn have the potential of holding in the heat and thus making the burn worse? I was always told that is why you should not put butter on a burn.
you said this will work for cuts also? do i just add 20 drops of tea tree oil to the mix? do i need olive oil?
Yes, you can just add the tea tree oil. You don’t need the olive oil
Hi Dr.
I have a very nice good recipe (from grandma): 1 simple candle and 3/4 tbs of oil, it can be olive oil, soy, etc… to use only for burns and scratchs (may have wrote wrong…)…boile water and add the entire candle in a pan above, let it melt and remove the cord, than add the oil until you get it in a soft cream.
And for moisturing cream you can add almond, and some essencial oil…just have to add oil till it gets a soft cream…wil depends on the candle quality….if you ever try, please, let me know what your final recipe looks like.
A friend of mine burned her hands, she used it for a week, each day just adding more of this moisturing without washing…in only one week her hands got a new skin
Oh, and it lasts for months though.
You don´t need to publish this comment, but let me know if you ever try it…
Thanks
i like to keep a version in my freezer, I hope that doesn’t destroy the integrity, does it?
That should be fine
I burned two fingers one day over some hot steam while poaching eggs. My husband (the beekeeper) grabbed a bottle of honey and immediately covered the burn with honey (pure, raw honey). The pain disappeared and later in the day when I was washing dishes in hot water I realized that I had no pain or redness. Amazing!
Dr, Axe
