7. Sunburn Relief

Soothing Sunburn: Sunburns can be painful and leave your skin feeling irritated. However, the soothing properties of castor oil combined with the mild abrasive effect of baking soda can help alleviate sunburn pain. Apply the paste to the sunburnt area to reduce redness and pain.

Preparation and Application

To make the castor oil and baking soda mixture:

• Mix equal parts of castor oil and baking soda in a small bowl until a paste forms.
• Apply the mixture directly to the affected area unless directed otherwise.
• For internal issues like digestive discomfort, dissolve the ingredients in water and drink immediately.

A Word of Caution

While these remedies can be effective, it’s always wise to consult with a healthcare provider before trying new treatments, especially if you have sensitive skin or existing health conditions. Additionally, conduct a patch test to ensure you do not have an allergic reaction to either ingredient.
