I basically used it five times a day until the breakouts subsided and then twice a day as a preventitive measure.<BR/><BR/>Michelle, yeah I haven't tried it on insect bites. I bet it works well at reducing them, but I imagine it would hurt if you were given to scratching them like I am!!<BR/><BR/>Kimberly, I guess there are a lot of factors involved. I did find I had to apply fairly regularly to see big results though.<BR/><BR/>Linda Jane, the Armchair Activist challenge was to challenge people to make climate change a right, left, and center issue. Let's keep putting pressure on the government to deal with climate change! <BR/><BR/>Chile, thanks for the information, and for calling that to our attention.
