DIY Anti-Itch Spray for Humans

Reblogged from here: “I used it on my OWN mosquito bites and minor skin abrasions last summer, and it worked better than any ready-made remedy I’ve ever purchased! It’s inexpensive, all natural, and easy to mix up.”


You will need:
*witch hazel
*aloe vera gel
*tea tree oil
*lavendar (optional) 
*and a 4-ounce spritzer bottle.

You can get all these ingredients at any drugstore.

Fill the spritzer bottle about half and half with the witch hazel and aloe vera gel. Add about 15 drops of tea tree oil. If you want to make it smell even better, add a few drops of lavendar. Shake it up. It will have the consistency of a thin lotion. Apply the lotion daily or as needed, and gently massage into the affected areas

  1. Finally, scientists have developed advanced treatments that won’t allow itchy skin to keep you from making the most of the season. According to Dr. Michael Southall, a leading scientist at Johnson & Johnson’s Skin Research Center, there are new ways to help ensure against extreme itch. Until now, over-the-counter remedies have included topical hydrocortisone treatments that provided only temporary relief. A new breakthrough technology has revamped the anti-itch category, allowing hydrocortisone to stay on skin for a longer period of time. These new products not only soothe and heal but can also last up to 12 hours, making for a successful day at work or play and a peaceful night’s rest.”

  2. I am really fascinated by your article here, i have a facebook group of pretty much same category, i was wodering if i can post your stuff there in my facebook group by your permission, ofcourse.

    1. Please DON’T. Please read my reply below. Tea tree oil is 100% TOXIC For Your Pets & .can cause death. The lack of efficient research & spreading this dangerous info around (as well as putting so many pets at risk) makes me angry.

  3. I recently read that tea tree oil is dangerous to use on pets. Can I make this without tea tree oil & if so would it be as effective? It sounds like a good recipe. Thank you

    1. I haven’t heard about the tea tree oil issue with pets… I’d think to be 100% sure – you should talk to your vet. Keep in mind that different dog breeds have different skin types too!

    2. I am a Young Living Distributor and heard the same thing. Discussed with my vet who said Tea Tree oil IS toxic to pets. However, my groomer said that in very small doses and diluted, it is ok. I use Lavender instead and if abrasions are real bad, I add only a couple of drops of Tea Tree

  4. I AM A VET TECH. TEA TREE OIL IS 110% TOXIC FOR DOGS & CATS AS THEIR LIVER CANNOT ASSIMILATE OR PROCESS IT & WILL CAUSE A HOST OF PROBLEMS LIKE SEIZURES AND DEATH. IM APPALLED THAT PEOPLE DON’T DO THEIR HOMEWORK & ARE BLINDLY PASSING THIS AROUND. IT’S YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THIS. HONESTLY THIS BLOWS MY MIND. RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH. Google is a finger tap away. Please take action now & stop using on your own pets & telling other people to.

    1. Sunny – I have changed the post to say “for Humans” (not Humans and Dogs) Thanks for thinking of all of our furry friends! 🙂
