Relief Fast
Think you ran into poison ivy? No worries! Tecnu Original Outdoor Skin Cleanser is a poison ivy wash created to combat urushiol. This effective yet gentle soap is the first line of defense against a potential rash. It works to wash away the oil before it takes hold.
It's best to act within the first 8 hours after exposure. Apply Tecnu Original directly to dry skin, massaging thoroughly for two minutes. Rinse with cool or tepid water to remove the rash-causing oil. If you are not near a water source. you can simply wipe it off with a cloth. Remember, time is of the essence. The sooner you act, the higher your chance of preventing the rash altogether.
Even if a poison ivy or oak rash develops, Tecnu Original remains your ally. Removing unbonded urushiol oil will prevent further spread. And beyond the immediate application, Tecnu Original safeguards your gear. Apply it to potentially contaminated objects like tools, clothing, or pet fur. Coming in contact with objects that have urushiol on them can start a new rash.
So, ditch the itch and embrace the adventure! With Tecnu Original by your side, every trail becomes a possibility, not a potential itchy nightmare. Get your bottle of freedom today!
