Review: Excellent product (buy the gel not the spray) - This is excellent. Have used for both of my children who have each really suffered with chicken pox. My 6yr old has it at the moment; she is absolutely covered! After Calpol and Piriton she was still very sore, itchy and upset - apply this and within moments the spots are completely forgotten. This removes the urge to scratch completely which not only means a happier child but quicker healing and less scarring. We bought the gel with my eldest but this time round my daughter chose the spray. The spray was a bit of a mistake- works just as well to calm the rash but it’s very runny, takes several minutes to dry enough to put clothes on and was ‘too cold’. It also doesn’t last long - half the bottle gone in 24 hrs - so we ordered the gel urgently on prime. (They probably just need to modify the pump spray to spray a thinner layer...) The gel is absorbed in seconds and is lasting much longer. If your child has chicken pox, just buy this! It will help immensely.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lifesaver
*by B***H on 11 November 2025*

Absolute lifesaver when my 2yo got chicken pox, cooled them right down and didnt itch/scratch half as much

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gently soothing.
*by S***T on 12 November 2019*

I am truly lucky and have shingles (again, knackered immune system). This gel definitely takes the edge off the burny itchiness without needing to be rubbed in too thoroughly. I imagine it will be very useful if you have little ones with any type of itchy rash. Obviously check with your pharmacy if in doubt.
