SwanCalamine Lotion - (2) 6 Oz. Bottles

Immediately stopped the itch of shingles. So happy I took a chance and ordered Swan calamine. Plan to order a back up bottle. Yes it seemed a bit watery but it took care of the itch so not a problem.

You know some stuff you just can't improve on and calamine lotion is one of those things. I got this for a really great price here on Amazon too try to soothe a rash from my seatbelt. I drive long distances and spend a lot of time in the vehicle and tried different ointments and finally remembered the old standby. I put this calamine lotion on after the shower for just a couple days in a row and it allowed my skin to heal and for the rash to go away. Now I use this every few days in the area that was irritated and it works wonders. This came fast and fresh and did the trick!

Great product

Some past reviews have bemoaned the lack of a seal on the bottle, but I would like to reassure current buyers that in fact the bottle does arrive with a seal on it. Some criticisms have noted that the lotion is watery. Well, yes, it is kind of watery, but I don’t find that a problem. It still covers the area with enough lotion. A thin coating dries more quickly. You may find that dabbing it on provides better coverage than rubbing it on. What I like is that there are no extraneous additives. When you are choosing among different brands of calamine, you should check the ingredients. This one lists just calamine and zinc oxide. There are also versions with an external analgesic added, which I have not tried but may be worth trying.

What I expected

We like this pure calamine lotion.

Swan Calamine Lotion 2 in a pack for$8.83 is a fair price.It is runny and helps with foot itch from shoes rubbing my foot.For Jock Itch, it is OK but I mix it to make a BETTER SOLUTION!!!!!!!!!In a small round 2 Oz jar:1. Add some Medicated Body Powder to help make a paste and solves runny liquid.2. Add some Swan Calamine Lotion.3. Add Tea Tree Oil Therapy Oil Cream in white bottle.4. 2 Dabs of Jock Itch Blast. It smells but works Best alone.Amazon sells these products.****BY Mixing them, you get more benefits and save money than using them Alone.My Mix works Better than any OTC and a Doctor’s prescription!!!!!!!🥰

There are so many products online - I thought this would be a good option for what I was looking for. I mean, how many recipes for calamine lotion can there be out there; however, I'm not too pleased with this option. It's too watered down which makes it harder to apply. I can't speak about the effectiveness - I can't tell. Don't recommend this.
