Equate Extra Strength Medicated Body Powder, Eucalyptus Scent, 10 oz, Compare to Gold Bond® Extra Strength Medicated Body Powder Active Ingredient

The humidity in the city where I live is extremely high—it stays at 99% throughout the entire summer. My eczema has been constantly itchy, breaking open repeatedly, and I am often woken up in the middle of the night by the itching. This powder has helped me tremendously; after just two weeks, the itching has subsided significantly, and my sores have started to heal.

Why buy brand name? This is totally as effective for much less money. I developed a really sore and angry rash under my breasts from sweat. I applied this one time, and the rash began to clear. With regular use, I can now prevent rash. It is extra strength, and feels cooling from the eucalyptus. (It stung a little on first application because rash was pretty intense, but cooling overtook the sting within a few minutes). There is no heavy smell.

Has DRASTICALLY improved the sweating and I feel so much more confident that I also smell as good as can be expected even when I'm deep into a shift at work and sweating in every crevice. It WILL burn in some areas though, so just keep that in mind!!

I saw some reviews that said it stung. That's why i bought it. I wanted something strong. It burned a little bit for about 5 minutes. It was no big deal. After only one application the itch went away. I'll keep using it for a week and see what happens.

Being a senior on a fixed income, I so appreciate and I'm thankful for the equate brand. This powder is a lifesaver for me, especially in the summer months when it is so hot sweat is pouring off your body. Of course I don't mean that literally but I'm a little overweight, so I tend to perspire in the crevices. Sorry if that grosses you out and this powder stops that. After washing up every morning and freshly putting on a new batch, I don't have to worry about getting any infections. This is a godsend. I actually turned a couple of my older friends who are little overweight too, and have the same problem into it. They didn't know that there was anything they could do for it. I used to use cornstarch baby powder, but it sometimes did not work as good as I found this medicated powder did work. Enjoy the summer don't dread it.

This powder works great keep me feeling fresh and dry I LOVE the cooling effect helps you feel a bit more comforable on then hot days and/or for hormonally night sweats and hot flashes. when I use some it last for hours I like that not to mention I like the price. I will purchase again and I recommend

It's really good for hot and humid weather, It reduces any irritation from excessive sweat. I even tried it on a toe blister and it disappeared in two days.

I appreciate the cooling sensation and smell of this powder...it feels soft and smooth to touch, and easily blends on the skin. Even though I do recommend it, I did have an allergic reaction to it (some of the ingredients broke me out)...buyer beware.

I could see through the yellow bottle when held to the light that it is only half full!! If that is the case put it in an 8 oz or so bottle to make it full instead of trying to fool people. BUT I do like the medicinal smell and that fact that it soothes and keeps you fresh. During these hot months, it should really do well.

Item arrived damaged it would not turn correctly so product would come out correct. Ended up all over the place. And returning it isn't an option because nearest Walmart is 15 minutes away . Scent is also very strong .
