Take a HOT shower as hot as you can until you can’t anymore then use Ajax dish soap and vigorously scrub affected areas once done air dry... I’m highly allergic and it’s the fastest acting quickest relief I’ve found! The Ajax soap has a degreaser in it that breaks down the oils that cause the irritation and spreadingLast edited by drop dead fred; 04-17-2018, 09:35 PM.

Scrub hard and it will make a huge difference. Zanfel helps remove the rash within a couple showers for me. You can get it at CVS and Walgreens.

Over it quicker. I am curious though how does a “moisturizing bar” take the moisture out? If it works I am all for giving it a try.

Maybe zest or Irish spring if that doesn’t work! Don’t know if it still moisturizes your skin if it’s dry lol
