Lotion for Dry Skin by Caladryl, Topical Analgesic for Itch Relief, 6 Fl Oz

Clear, Fast-Acting Itch Relief Without the Mess Caladryl Clear Lotion has become my preferred alternative to the old-school pink calamine lotion. It provides the same itch and irritation relief—but without the chalky residue or noticeable tint. I’ve used it on mosquito bites, mild poison ivy, and even sun-exposed skin that felt tight and itchy, and it consistently cools and calms within a minute or two. What sets it apart is the pramoxine hydrochloride—a topical analgesic that delivers quick pain and itch relief while the calamine component helps dry out oozing or weeping areas. The texture is smooth, slightly gel-like, and dries quickly without staining clothing or bedsheets. I also like that it’s transparent, so you can apply it discreetly before work or going out. There is a faint medicinal scent, but it fades fast. The only small downside is that the formula can feel a little tacky until it fully dries, and the bottle doesn’t always come sealed, so check that before storing. For anyone who deals with poison ivy or bug bites often, this is worth keeping on hand—especially during summer months. Bottom line: A clear, modern upgrade to traditional calamine—effective, fast-drying, and discreet for quick itch relief at home or on the go.

Having been riddled with mosquito bites and heat rash on top of some poison ivy after doing 10 hours of yard clean up, disrupting the malicious insects habitats, I couldn’t wait to receive this. So relieving to soothe the mad itchiness even temporarily so I can somewhat function during my work day. Being a clear lotion was also perfect so my clients didn’t even know I had Caladryl on. I’d definitely recommend this. Amazon had in stock while it’s been out of stock at all the local stores I could walk into.

I am using it a little off from recommendation, I use it to protect the the skin where I am going to attach the pump (or pod) I use it under the pod to protect the skin because I get blisters from the adhesive. sometimes. It makes it come off easier. Try it!

This product has exceeded my expectations in its efficacy. I have previously relied on calamine lotion for similar purposes. However, this new product provides significantly better relief. The difference in performance is truly remarkable. I would highly recommend this product over calamine lotion. ion.

It works the same as the pink colored calamine. It does not stain and has a thicker consistency than the pink stuff. And it does have Parabens. Other wise it would get the five star rating.

Apparently, the back part of my back yard is infested with chiggers. I got hit hard! Several places on my face, the entire left side of my neck, both arms, and some big sections around both ankles. After about a week, once I figured out what this was (I'd been hit last year too but didn't know it was chiggers), I got this stuff and started applying it multiple times a day. Some of the areas were so advanced that I had to use anti-biotic ointment, but the rest got this Caladryl. I like that it doesn't stay greasy for a long time like the ointment does. After 10 minutes or so, it is fully dried, but still working. After a week, most of the areas have reduced greatly, and some have gone completely. Last year, without caladryl, it took nearly 2 months for the sores on my ankles to go away.

great

Saw this on TikTok & just had to try. Got it to help soak up oil on my face before makeup

Works great for my dust allergy's when I get itchy skin, also works great for bug bites, the itchiness is gone almost immediately after application. Great stuff! Seller shipping was on time, shop with confidence. I would order again. Its better than the pink chalky stuff.

It's great, more gel like than lotion so it and dries clear.

I have always used this for any kind of itching and love it...it is not available in pharmacies in Canada anymore so I have to buy it online. Now that I found it, I will be getting more...

As expected, works fantastic on prickly heat and insect bites!
