Hi everyone Eau de Cologne and Dettol both have alcohol in them - probably plain rubbing alcohol would do to reduce itch...another suggestion is bag balm or udder 'butter' - a tin goes a long way (it's available through Lee Valley, in Canada - in a nice tin, probably is sold in shops as well, I haven't been able to find it locally though ) and is good for skin ailments of all sorts. Look for one of Bert's Bees potions at the health food store, too
In a pinch, see if the itches can be neutralized with lemon juice or an oatmeal and water combination- one is for an acidic mantle, the other basic. -- bye for now Bev with head in the apothecary, in Sooke, BC (west coast of Canada) To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
