  • I know that scratching would do nothing for the situation and opted to purchase some cream for the problem
  • I bought the Equate brand Anti itch cream from Wal-Mart of course, and paid only about 3 bucks which is a steal for a ten ounce tube
  • As soon as I applied it, I thought I would feel instant relief
  • I was disappointed as I noticed that I still wanted to scratch after applying it
  • I like the fact that the tube was so big, because I had to reapply the cream multiple times

      I don’t always use anti itch creams, but found them to be very necessary this past summer. I try to stay away from mosquitoes, but it is not always possible. I live in a desert area, but there is a river not too long from here that can attract the worst of the mosquitoes. Though I try to keep covered when going outside I was caught off guard on a coupe of occasions I would wake to very large mosquito bites that were very itchy and inflamed. I know that scratching would do nothing for the situation and opted to purchase some cream for the problem. I have

      scratched before and it just leaves the area raw and hurting instead of itching. I bought the Equate brand Anti itch cream from Wal-Mart of course, and paid only about 3 bucks which is a steal for a ten ounce tube. The tube was very easy to open and I was able to apply this cream with ease. I liked the texture of the cream because it was slick and fairly simple to rub in.

      If I used too much it would take a few strokes to rub it in, but if I only used a little dab it rubbed it with a stroke or two. As soon ...


      • as I applied it, I thought I would feel instant relief. I was disappointed as I noticed that I still wanted to scratch after applying it. I decided to ignore the itch for a few moments and it indeed did go away. I used this on multiple bites and felt a little relief, but not as much as I would have liked. I thought that I would not feel the itch again for a while, but it came back after a short while. I found myself applying this cream multiple times a day to the big bites that were really itching me. I also used this ointment on
        my daughter when she had a few mosquito bites, and she said that she felt absolutely no relief. I have also used this cream on irritated areas, where I had dry skin and wanted to relieve the itch. This cream does not do much for a strong itch, but does work for mild itches.

        I like the fact that the tube was so big, because I had to reapply the cream multiple times. I had to use quite a bit of it, and still had some cream to spare. I have used it a few more times, but found that it is not my preference as an anti itch cream.
