Summary: A must have for your first aid cabinet
Comment: I'm one of those lucky ones that really is sensitive to poison ivy (or oak or sumac, take your pick). The urishol oil spreads like wildfire on my skin. At the moment, I use 3 different products, two made by Tec Labs Oak-N-Ivy, like the one here.
Pro:
-If used AS DIRECTED within 2 hours of contact, generally removes all of the irritant
-Also good on an on-going basis to clean areas to prevent spread (don't dig your nails in! see our other reviews for itch relief)
-Shake well so that the mineral spirits mix well
-Light odor and no discoloration of skin, nothing to flake off as you rinse it off... no "pink stuff" like Mom's old-fashioned product
-This jumbo size is the only size! If you're washing with it like I do, you'll probably use a ton of it.
-Also, can be used to clean clothes and I have done so successfully, but it does use a lot of product. (I would note that I often throw away t-shirts, socks, anything that might be heavily contaminated and easy to replace, just in case.)
-According to the bottle, good for skunks and other undesireables... originally developed in the early 60's to remove radioactive dust from clothes and skin. It's properties for poison ivy/oak/sumac were a happy accident.
Con:
-Only provides a very brief itch relief... for that you must switch to another item (see our other reviews)
Bottom line: Highly recommended. Been using it since 2001 and I love it. See our other poison ivy relief favorites.

Summary: Tecnu works
Comment: I use this every summer to wash off poison ivy when I know I brushed passed some. It works, I don't react if I wash it all off.

Tecnu Outdoor Skin Cleanser cleans and decontaminates clothing and skin after exposure to poison oak, ivy and sumac. Its unique, waterless cleansing formula has been proven to remove the cause of the irritating itch and spreading rash, the poison plants' oil, urushiol. Urushiol "locks on" to skin cells within 20 minutes after exposure. Left untreated, skin will erupt into a red, itchy rash in 3 out of 4 people within 12 to 72 hours. Tecnu is specially formulated to "unlock "urushiol. Other products simply cover up the problem, while Tecnu cleanses the oil that causes the rash.
