Home Remedies For Itchy Skin

1. Moisturizers.

Moisturizers, such as creams and lotions, can help hydrate the outermost layer of the skin. They are often essential for managing skin conditions that cause itching and dryness.

A good moisturizer will contain humectants and emollients. Humectants draw water into the skin, while emollients form a protective film over the skin’s surface, which helps lock in moisture.

It is best to apply moisturizers soon after a bath or shower, while the skin is still a little damp.

2. Baking soda.

Baking soda has antifungal properties, and it is an effective treatment for a range of fungal skin conditions, many of which can cause itching of the skin.

Adding one-quarter of a cup of baking soda to a warm bath can serve as a remedy for itchy skin.

An alternative option is to mix the baking soda with a little water to form a paste, which a person can apply directly onto itchy areas.
