Oak-N-Ivy CalaGel Medicated Anti-Itch Gel 6 fl oz
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'm one of those lucky ones that really is sensitive to poison ivy (or oak or sumac, take your pick).The urishol oil spreads like wildfire on my skin.At the moment, I use 3 different products, two made by Tec, like the one here.

Pro:
-Great for itch relief, feels cool to the touch... aaah, feels so good!
-Lifts/traps irritant oils as it slowly dries
-Also claims that it also has antiseptic properties, so if you've scratched you can try to avoid an infection
-Been around for years, at least it was on the shelves in 2001 when I first purchased Calagel
-Light odor and no discoloration of skin or clothes... no "pink stuff" like Mom's old-fashioned product
-Cap is well-designed and does not leak if I take it with me on the road
-If you look carefully, you get a free trial-size sample of "Tecnu" bundled with this Calagel package

Con:
-None to report

Bottom line: Highly recommended.Been using it since 2001 and I love it.I use it about every 3 hours and apply it several times in a row if needed.Once it starts itching, it's harder to stop it, so do it more often.See our other poison ivy relief favorites.

Unlike pink, runny calamine lotions, CalaGel's clear, hydrocortisone-free, antihistamine gel stays where you put it. You'll get quick relief without the messy pink fluid on your skin and clothes. CalaGel dries quickly, leaving an invisible, anti-itch skin protectant shield on your tender skin.
Calagel® and Tecnu® work together - If you have been exposed to poison oak, ivy or sumac, you should thoroughly clean up with Tecnu as soon as possible after exposure to unlock and remove the poison oils that cause your rash. If the rash has appeared, use CalaGel to stop the itching, dry the oozing, reduce the swelling and help avoid possible infection.
A History of Relief - Tecnu® was developed in 1961, during the cold war years by chemical engineer, Dr. Robert Smith, as an effective waterless cleanser capable of removing radioactive dust from skin and clothing. His wife accidentally discovered that Tecnu would cleanse poison plant oils after exposure to poison oak and ivy. Tecnu has become standard-issue in first aid kits of outdoor professionals across the country. Now, you can put Tecnu to work for your family.
Tecnu® Ingredients: Deodorized Mineral Spirits, Water, Propylene Glycol, Octylphenoxy-Polyethoxyethanol, Mixed Fatty Acid Soap and Fragrance.
