Aveeno Anti-Itch Concentrated Lotion with Calamine and Oat, Skin Protectant for Fast-Acting Itch Relief from Poison Ivy, Insect Bites, Chick Pox, and Allergic Itches, 4 fl. oz

I've been using this Aveeno product for a number of years. It's the only product I've found that immediately stops the itch from bug bites and mild hives. Our little neighbor friends call it "magic lotion" because it stops the itch of mosquito bites immediately. I use it for mild hives, and nothing else comes close to the instant relief it provides. A little goes a long way, too. It has calamine in it, so it's not meant to be moisturizing, but it is soothing in addition to stopping itch. It would probably be great for poison ivy as well. I highly recommend it.

Thank you for sending to Australia, hope lotion works for rash. Fast postage considering pandemic.

This is an essential addition to any first-aid kit, particularly for those prone to poison ivy, insect bites, or allergic rashes. By combining calamine to dry out weeping irritations with triple oat complex to soothe the skin, Aveeno has created a formula that stops the "itch-scratch cycle" much faster than standard lotions. It’s concentrated, so a little goes a long way, and it lacks the medicinal, overpowering scent of older calamine formulas. While it can leave a slight pinkish residue due to the calamine, the immediate relief it provides for inflamed skin makes it a standout "medicine cabinet" staple.

Mosquitoes/insects love me a lot. Unfortunately I'm also the kind of person who gets large welts after getting bitten and the reaction is so bad I look like someone has beaten me up. This particular Aveeno (they are not all the same - this formula is hard to find in stores) calms my itching down immediately and allows me a good night sleep but also keeps the welts from getting too huge and ugly. Yes, it smells like calamine lotion, but to me that's simply the price you pay for relief and I'm happy to do so.

Great lotion , stoped the itching
