Summer time, at least for my family, means more time
outdoors. What else looms around in the
summer, especially at night? Bugs! Mostly, what we react to in my family most
are mosquitoes. My bites, as well as our
daughter’s mosquito bites turn into large lumps, especially once they become
itchy, which leads to scratching.
Normally, our family would use alcohol, and then apply a layer of hydrocortisone,
which would do the trick in keeping the itchiness away. That is, until I was provided with Zim’s Advanced Crack Creme with
Hydrocortisone to review.

My thoughts
I was surprised that the Zim’s Advanced Crack Creme with Hydrocortisone worked at
effectively taking away the itch from me and my daughter’s mosquito bites, and
it did this rather quickly. It only took
a small amount of the product rubbed on the affected area to do so, which means
more bang for your buck! Don’t you love it when a just a little of a product
goes a long way?

Zim’s Advanced Crack Creme with Hydrocortisone is described
as a cream, but to me, it’s more like a salve, and smells like one, too. Maybe because I’ve been using this product during the summer, but the consistency of it is a little runny,
which means you have to be careful when removing the product from the tube, or
else, it can be all over your floor. Yes, that’s happened to me.

Now back to the scent. The scent is very Tiger Balm-ish. If you’re a fan of that scent, kudos to you,
but there is something off-putting about it to me. Although the scent doesn’t linger around too
long – I’d say it stays around for about 5 minutes post application – it bothers
me. My daughter doesn’t mind
though. In fact, I caught her smearing it all over her arms!

Overall, I am satisfied with the results from using the Zim’s Advanced Crack Creme with
Hydrocortisone. I use it as soon as either
of us is bitten by a bug, and I pack it in my bag whenever we plan to be
outdoors. If you’re in the market for an
anti-itch cream, and do not mind the scent, I’d suggest checking out this one.
