AveenoAnti-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

The Good:- Easier to apply since not as liquidity as calamine lotion- Good for mosquito bitesThe Bad:- NoneThe Bottom Line:We’ve been infested with mosquitos in Southern California. Our son has gotten a ton of bites and we’ve been looking for an easy to apply calamine lotion. The problem with the topical calamine lotion is it was making a mess since it’s so liquidity. Those Aveeno lotion is thicker and so much easier to apply. The product works great and relieves our child from the itchiness!

This product really helped me and my doggie. He is more prone to itchy skin then I am, but recently, he had a large area around his neck that had gotten some doctoring, and as it healed was driving him crazy for the itching. I used Aveno on it , and he stopped itching and went to sleep. If you use it for your pets, maybe you should contact your vet about it first. It works, is smooth and soothing, and easy to apply. I do highly recommend this product, and I have ordered it more then once. I love amazon, and thank The Lord for amazon. Hope this helps.

We have used this "itch" cream for years, best on the market. My husband has tried numerous creams to stem his incessant itchy arm in the middle of the night, this works like a charm. I have excema and it relieves that as well.He's not "itching" for anything better!

Had some mosquito bites that I wanted to take care of, so I thought I would try Aveeno since it is a common brand. The itch seemed to sort of go away, although not fully. The smell is not desirable at all. I thought I would be able to put this on and go out and about for the day but I found that I washed the lotion off before doing so because of the smell. It’s not awful but it’s definitely strong and pungent enough to notice.

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.

Is it a good value for the money? I don't know but when you're itchy and nothing else seems to stop the itch doesn't matter if it's a good value for the money? Of course it does not matter!It smells like calamine. If you've never smelled calamine before that's what it smells like. All these people who are saying it has a really bad smell... The smell is calamine.It is calming to the skin. It is moisturizing to the skin. And it does seem to stop the itch. So it does everything it's supposed to do none of the ingredients are a surprise.

I like Aveeno products overall, and discovered this one when I was having a dermatitis breakout so it really helped with the itching. Weirdly though, it seems to have a tint to it almost like a light foundation, maybe designed to cover up some of the redness that comes with itching? Since it was on my upper chest that just meant it left tint on my clothing which I did not like and did not expect. As for the itching though, it helped alot.

Got for a loved one who was itching really badly and it worked for her straightaway every time.The smell was not loud, seems like the bottle amount was small for the money spent,
