Be Ready for Poison Ivy with Ivarest
Category:
Children Skin Care Summer
What: Ivarest Poison Ivy Cleansing Foam
Why: Nothing will ruin a nice summer day faster than a bad case of poison ivy. No matter how old you are, it’s pretty miserable. But instead of reaching for a white cream or pink lotion, rub on
Ivarest Medicated Poison Ivy Cleansing Formula
. It not only soothes and cools the skin but it can minimize the reaction to the plant and stop the rash from spreading.
Now if you catch the moment of person/plant contact, clean the area with Ivarest ASAP and you can prevent all that itching and redness, The foam washes away the poison before it gets to work. Already red and itchy? Ivarest also makes a
Medicated Anti-Itch Cream
that combines an antihistamine, analgesic for itch and a skin protectant to help dry the rash. Keep it on hand not only for poison ivy, but for insect bites and other skin irritations.
Price: $9.99 for the cleansing foam; $6.99 for the itch cream

Brighten Your Sandbox With Colored Sand
Category:
Children Toys
What: Crayola Play Sand
