I used to be afraid of Poison Ivy, until I learned how it works. Getting a reaction is one of the most uncomfortable experiences ever but hopefully this video can help you from ever getting a reaction!
Share with a friend so you can save them too 🙌
Disclaimer: the first clip wasn’t all poison ivy but I think the healthiest thing is to adopt the mindset that anytime I go in the woods I’m exposed to poison ivy. So once I get home I immediately scrub every part of my body because most of the time you don’t realize you even touched poison ivy in the first place.

Dude you know that Non polar fluids such as oils dissolve other non polar fluids. You can use olive oil and you will not have that reaction
I get poison ivy if I am within 10 miles of it. I will use rubbing alcohol and soap to clean my skin.
This is the whitest thing I ever seen. I mean I know yall don’t use washcloths but to think your solution was a washcloth, something you should have already being using regularly, is crazy. So when you came from these intense hikes in the woods you was just washing your body with your hands? No towel, loofa, or net sponge to scrub the dirt off? Do y’all even shower immediately when yall come home form these intense hikes?.
Axle grease is most easily removed from skin by rubbing vegetable oil on it. Maybe vegetable oil can also work in removing poison ivy oil?
This doesn't seem right
I’m immune to poison ivy
I remember the first time I was told the similarities of poison ivy oil and heavy weight grease on your skin. It was a game changer. I got it so much as a kid my dad used to tell not to give the plant any dirty looks or might get it again. 😊
or just wear long pants, or hell, don’t go near it
Or just wear pants, they make some specifically to protect your legs while hiking.
Friction. That's what kill germs too!
Okay but… socks in bathtub?
It’s a good day to not be allergic to poison ivy
This is all Mayapple*
He acts soooo weird with Brittney like nigga are u embarrassed or some wtf
Wouldn't oil cleansing work too? Oil cleans oil.

I did this after weedeating in a ivy patch and it works!!!
But then if you do get a rash then friction is one of the worst things you could do 😂
Dawn dish soap is recommended by me because it works well to degrease my hands when I was a mechanic.
Just wear jeans an cowboys boots, that's what I do if I go out into the forrest like that
But what if you immune to poison ivy
Don’t use ranch, people.
I guess poison ivy is a thing in the US
I’ve been using a different technique for years. I’ve never once had a reaction from it. It’s called “don’t ever go near poison ivy”. It hasn’t failed me to this day.
Dawn dishwashing liquid
Of you could just not walk through poison ivy
So basically, I just learned that a lot of people don’t use wash cloth when they take a shower. That is too funny 😂
This should be an in general psa to the individuals that dont shower with a wash rag!! Yall are still dirty
Why are all of yall so against a wash rag? Soap with grit, or a sugar scrub is never going to compare to a simple wash rag. Yes wear long pants but if u did get the ivy on u take a proper shower!
Kids, do not use ranch to clean your body…
✍️ wash legs with ranch…
You gon get ppl killed
Say oil again
