Vinegar Wash

If you think you have been exposed to an irritant like poison ivy, I suggest using a vinegar wash to remove as much of the irritant as possible.

Vinegar Wash

Apple cider vinegar is a versatile, neutralizing agent. Some recommend using it undiluted, but I’ve found it can be irritating to skin that is already red and inflamed.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar 

  • 2 cups water 

Mix both ingredients together.

How to Use: Rinse the area with the vinegar wash to remove as much of the irritant as possible. Let your skin dry.
