Healing Products
Product Name	Description
Aquaphor Healing Ointment	Can help calm down skin, reduce redness
Polysporin	Helps wounds heal faster, better than Neosporin because it doesn’t have the neomycin ingredient, which can be irritating; can dab some polysporin onto popped pimples to help them heal faster
Egyptian Magic	An olive-oil based balm; can sooth wounds or irritated skin, but be careful if you are clog-prone
DuoDERM Synthetic Skin Dressing	A fruit pectin derivative type of bandaid sticker, used to cover up wounds to prevent infection and help them heal faster. (I like these better than bandaids because you can stick them completely over the wound. There are other brands available besides DuoDERM.)
Aloe Vera Gel Fruit of the Earth Aloe Vera Gel Aubrey Organics Pure Aloe Vera Gel	Helps soothe and calm irritated skin (Fruit of the Earth Aloe Vera Gel, Audrey Organics Aloe Vera Gel, or simply use aloe vera gel from the plant (but you only want the clear gooey stuff, try not to get any green stuff on your skin because it could be irritating)
Raw Honey	Raw honey mask is antiseptic, healing and moisturizing. May calm down wonky skin; especially good for burns and minor cuts.
Cold compress	When my skin’s feeling irritated and I don’t want to put any more products on it, I simply put a cool towel on my face and lay there like that for half and hour. I’ll keep rewetting the towel to keep it cool. But if you lay down, water may drip into your ears! EDIT: I got tired of using cold towels, so I purchased this instead. You just stick it in the freezer and when you want to use it, let it sit for a few minutes so it's not too cold and then put it on your face like you would a mask. I really like it because it's soothing, great for any swelling, and not as drippy as what I previously used. These face masks are also a great pick me up in the middle of the day!
Avene Cicalfate Restorative Cream	Helps your skin heal faster; soothes irritated skin
