• A normal year has 365 days.
• A Leap Year has 366 days (the extra day is the 29th of February).

• It may sound silly but I swear by noxema cleansing cream for burns and rashes. It has a coolant and feels so good
• Vaseline. Vaseline. Vaseline. Hydrate the skin as much as possible to give it the best chance to heal itself. I usually dry it out with tea tree, then hydrate once the blistering starts to heal.
• What do you think about reaching out to Farmer Carin at Blossom's Farm. She makes bio-dynamic salves and skin creams. I bet she has something that's great for post-poison oak rash: http://www.blossomsfarm.com/. They sell at a few of the local farmer's markets in town.
• Jump in the ocean!!! Whatever is in that water dries it our instantly!
• The Beauty Counter baby rash has worked wonders for a few people I know! But jumping in the ocean helps as well!
• Haven’t used it for poison oak but for other rashes and skin problems: vitamin E. I would break open vitamin E gel caps and smear the contents straight onto the skin.
• I get terrible poison oak, aaaand I learned years after suffering loooong painful healing periods that what is actually going on is that I am acquiring a secondary infection—usually impetigo—that masquerades on top of the original rash and doubles the healing time. The solution is topical antibiotics. Muproxin, to be exact. I now use it preventively when I get a PO rash.
• I ended up bathing her in an Epsom salt bath with some ACV. I think that did help a lot. I also got some plantain oil which I was told is good for poison oak. It already looks better than it did this morning!

• My daughter is super sensitive and gets awful rashes if she even gets near it. We have tried EVERYTHING. The one thing that works every time is scrubbing with dish soap. Use tepid-cold water (as cold as she can handle) scrub with dish soap for a minimum of 30 seconds as hard as she can handle then rinse. Repeat for a total of 3 times. Works every time and better than anything even Zenfel which we paid $50 for a tiny tube.
• I did that too! It did seem to help. I also bought the stupid zenfel but I got the CVS brand and used a coupon so I paid $27. But still. Expensive!
• The pics on the box had me so convinced but it didn't do anything for us. If you did the dish soap it will clear up in a couple days. You can put on aloe vera to help sooth it.
• I was taught by a dear friend about green clay last summer when my daughter had a very bad episode of poison oak. You can buy in bulk at new leaf or whole foods. It helped a lot. You mix it with a little water and salt and put it on the area until it dries out and you can leave it on even longer.
• Calendula/comfrey salve to heal the scarring.
