BenadrylAnti Itch Gel, Relief of Outdoor Itches Associated with Poison Ivy, Topical Analgesic, Cooling Relief, Diphenhydramine, 3.5 oz

At first, I was just looking for a cream that would treat/improve bug bites (maybe something like Cortizone?). It's been a few years since I badly needed something similar but when I started a position at work where I only work outside at night, turns out my legs are a super delicious meal for the mosquitos and even though I could kill 50 mosquitos a night, they keep returning and I can't stop them all. Once they get my legs, the itching is neverending. It gets so bad, my co-workers and manager even feel itchy looking at me itch myself.I DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH I NEEDED THIS ITCH CREAM UNTIL I PURCHASED IT.I've been using it for two months so far and oh my goth, it's INSTANT relief. On top of that, it's an easy-to-apply clear gel that dries up within a few minutes so I don't have to continue exposing my skin, for fear of the gel clinging to my clothes when I roll the sleeves down.I also recently went to an outside festival and ended up getting a slight sunburn, which hardly ever occurs for me. The sunburn didn't hurt at first, since it appears more like a tan, but then I started slightly itching it until the scratching increased and it started feeling like a burning, stinging, itchy sensation. Since I hardly receive sunburns, I couldn't think of anything at home that would help (If I don't own sunscreen, I probably wouldn't have anything to help sunburns either). This itch cream immediately went to mind and once I put it on, the burning/stinging/itchy sensation instantly disappeared.A cooling, instant-relieving product that dries up quickly and is fairly inexpensive? HECK YEAH I'LL BUY THIS AGAIN!The only CON I have with this product is the squirt function/container. Unlike other general tubes where the cream is squeezed out, this Benadryl Anti-Itch Cream LEAKS out the tube when you open it. So if the tube/container is upright or if the cap is not securely snapped shut, the gel drips out of the tube/container like a leaking faucet so it's a little annoying to put on certain hard-to-reach areas because I have to lather it on my hands first before I can apply it to someplace like my back.Otherwise, I'm very happy with this product.

Great relief for itchiness.

I purchased this anti-itch gel based on the trusted Benadryl name, which has been around for years. This is a staple in my home, always on hand for whenever someone needs it. The quality is consistently excellent, and it works amazingly well to relieve itching from bug bites, rashes, and other skin irritations.The packaging is also well-designed, with a clear, easy-to-read label, making it easy to grab from the medicine cabinet when needed. The squeeze bottle is convenient and mess-free.Overall, this is a must-have product for any household, and I highly recommend it!

I recently used the Benadryl Anti-Itch Gel for some mosquito bites, and I’m so glad I did! After spending some time outdoors, I ended up with a few bites that were driving me crazy with itching and swelling. I applied this gel, and within minutes, the itching was significantly reduced. The cooling effect was immediate and soothing, providing instant relief from the irritation.The gel is easy to apply and absorbs quickly without being greasy or sticky. I also love that it doesn’t have a strong medicinal smell, which is a plus. It’s been a lifesaver during mosquito season, and I've used it several times with great results.One of the best things about this gel is how quickly it works. I didn’t have to keep reapplying over and over; just one or two applications were enough to get me through the worst of the itchiness. It’s definitely become a go-to item in our house for any kind of itching, not just mosquito bites.If you're looking for an effective, fast-acting solution for insect bites or any other itching, I highly recommend Benadryl Anti-Itch Gel. It’s easy to use, works fast, and really helps with relief!

A lifesaver! The thickness, ease of use, speed, and how it acts on my skin, along with its quality and moisturizing effect, are all excellent! It is not even sticky!

Works well. Not too greasy

Even if there are no bugs, this is a must-have in any medicine cabinet. While the furnace was still on this March, the air in the apartment got very dry. I found myself scratching my arm while trying to go to sleep. I went into my stash of moisturizers of all kinds. Fortunately, I still had a tube of Benadryl left over from last summer. I like the clear liquid version. It goes on smoothly, drys quickly and gave me immediate relief so I could go to sleep.

DO NOT use on sensitive skin (e.g., face). This has a high alcohol content, and it caused redness and and a burning sensation on my already upset skin. Might work fine on less sensitive areas.
