I just got poison ivy for the first time.....try Ivy Dry; it's a spray that eases the itching and dries the rash.

Unless your face was all over a tree with poison ivy, or you were lying in it in the woods face down, then I don't think you have that. You should see your dermatologist and get it straightened out.

Poison Ivy is an allergic reaction, so Benadryl always helps. Take it orally and then put Benadryl cream on it directly.

New system at drugstore uses, a scrub then a spray, i think cortaid makes it, you should check it out, i heard it works good.

baking soda bath. That dries it out and shrinks it, as well as helping with the itch. It may help by that time, but it wont be gone no matter what you do.

no home treatment will help make it go away. if it's spreading, get to the doctor right away for some steroid cream.

Calimine lotion is an old remedy and it will match your blusher on Saturday....
