Good luck! Yes, please keep us posted on how he does! I purchased the Helichrysum oil too but haven’t received it yet.
I took my dog to a local dog beach on Sunday and lathered up with sunscreen. According to Consumer Reports the sunscreen that rated highest in protection is Coppertone’s water babies, spf 50. It works really good. I was in the sun at the beach for almost 2 hours and no sunburn at all. I’m pretty diligent about putting it on every couple hours or so and I apply it liberally!

Hubby has been faithfully using the Helichrysum essential oil for about a month and his arms look so much better! The skin is now smooth and soft and when he does bump his arm and gets a bruise, the healing time is so much quicker. I use fractionated coconut oil as the carrier and here's the formula that was taken from their website:
"A common ratio for diluting Helichrysum essential oil in fractionated coconut oil is a 2-3% dilution, according to Nomad Botanicals. This means you would use 2-3 drops of Helichrysum essential oil for every teaspoon of fractionated coconut oil, or 12-18 drops per ounce of carrier oil, according to Eden Botanicals.
More Details:
1% Dilution:
For sensitive skin or when starting, you can use a 1% dilution, which is about 6 drops per ounce of carrier oil, says Wyndmere Naturals.
2-3% Dilution:
This is a general guideline for most adults and is a safe and effective dilution for topical application."
