Apply as needed. It feels oily, but soaks in quickly. Very hydroscopic, works as a moisturizer when mixed with water. (Chemically, it is a simple 3-carbon alcohol, alternate name glycerol.) Takes about 10 minutes to ease the itching, and will knock down the welts in an hour or two. It works by stopping the inflammation and bringing the distressed tissue back "on line" to normal operation. Also doubles healing speed and halves scarring for wounds and scratches. Heals burns, including sunburn. Topical disinfectant - works by instantly dehydrating bacteria, killing them. Dirt cheap miracle liquid.
