Soothing Oat Balm with Ground Oats
Lise
I've had a couple of questions about the soothing oat balm in this book: "Can't I use my own ground oats instead of colloidal oatmeal in this balm?"
You can, but you will not get a smooth balm. Pictured below; a small batch I made up to show you what happens.
Even though the balm looks grainy, it goes on surprisingly smoothly and melts right in, so if you can live with the lumpy look, then go for it!
