"Hello! I just happily stumbled upon your website. I'm new to all this and love reading about what other people are doing to help with this thorn in my side! One thing that seems to work for me is Trader Joe's A Midsummer Nights Cream extra dry formula. It will take the itch away for at least 5 hours on a mild flare. I also use 1 T. of jojoba oil mixed with 3-4 drops of pure tree tea oil. This also helps with a small flare and the dry skin patches. Often I use both, oil first, cream second. On big flares I have to resort to a steroid ointment which I am trying to get rid of. I hate using it! I've tried Aquaphor but it is so greasy it ruined my clothes. Not a fan. Thanks for all the comments and recommendations everyone! Onward and upward!"
Thanks Sarah, will do.
Thanks Courtney!
