Guest guest Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Hi! I'm new to the group & don't know much about my new Vitamix - but I know skin care.I would use aloe vera gel - either from a plant if you have one, or you can purchase it inexpensively. Most chain drug stores have a clear inexpensive Vitamin E gel that has an aloe gel base with Vitamin E. Almost all stores have plain aloe vera gel. Also zinc is one of the most soothing things for skin - it is present in most diaper ointments. You can use aloe gel, let it dry & then apply diaper ointment to calm you skin down - after one use, you should be able to keep it under control with the aloe.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2010 Report Share Posted November 6, 2010 Make sure if you take it that it's not in conjunction with topical Benedryl--it's contraindicated (neither one helped my Summer '09 itch attack but I learned you don't want to use them simultaneously).
