Instructions for poison ivy (oak, sumac) itch relief: Use lukewarm water. Do not use hot water. Hot water will open up your pores and allow irritants to penetrate. Lather itchy area with the Wicked Itch soap and leave in place for about two minutes. Rinse. Repeat as needed.
Instructions for itch prevention: Our jewelweed soap is also effective at preventing poison ivy, sumac and oak rashes. Before going into areas with poison ivy, poison oak or poison sumac, lather exposed areas with Wicked Itch Jewelweed Soap. Rinse lightly.
NOTE: Don't leave your soap in the sun or a very hot location; the glycerin will melt if heated too much.
Jewelweed information:
1. Lipton (1958) did a clinical study where he determined that 108 of 115 patients who presented with existing poison ivy rashes that he treated with jewelweed preparations "responded most dramatically to the topical application of [jewelweed]". He later did a patch test on himself and again concluded that jewelweed extract was the most effective course of treatment. Source - Medical Attributes of Impatiens sp. - Jewelweed, Touch-me-not
2. An active ingredient found naturally in jewelweed extract is the same ingredient found in a popular hemorrhoid preparation. Why? Because it works on itching and inflammation!
