      Go to your local pharmacy or order online a lotion with a high concentration of vitamin E. It will help speed up the healing process alot. I use colonial dames 50,000 iu cream.

      Edit: The brand is called “colonial dames” no I didn’t make a typo for colloidal. It was founded by a women in the 1800s

      I’m allergic too but holy shit. I just get real itchy with slight redness. That shit is zombifying you

    3. I’m also allergic to dawn dish soap , I can only use non scented biodegradable dish soap! The “unscented company” is incredible.

      Oooh! Ouch! Sather your hands up with Vaseline and put socks or gloves on them every chance you get!

    5. Interesting. Is Dawn chemically different from other dish soaps? I figured it was all marketing

      They just changed its formula a while back. The difference between old and new could maybe be telling here.

      Is that rash itchy?  I got eczema after washing a bunch of dishes in hot soapy water once.  It came back if I used too much antibacterial soap.  Topical steroid cream helped a lot.

      Oh I thought my Dawn allergy was bad… Mine lasted months and I still have scarring from using it over a year ago.

      Please go to a doctor to prevent worse scars than necessary ❤️

      “Honey, can you come help me wash dishes?”

      “Nope!”

      “Why not, don’t you want to help me?”

      “I *want* to help you, but I’m allergic to washing dishes!”

    10. I wonder if any ducks were ever allergic to Dawn dish soap and we just never heard about it

    11. My lord. Dawn is recommended for washing off poison ivy. Imagine if that’s how you found out!! That looks so painful, I’m sorry.

      On the plus side, at least you have a really, REALLY good excuse not to wash the dishes

      Good lord did you put some Benadryl cream or hydrocortisone cream in that? Please do!
