Shower at Bedtime
Spring allergies can leave your skin feeling like a scratchy mess, thanks to pesky histamines. But scratching only stirs up more trouble, leaving you redder than a ripe tomato. Dust and pollen cling to your skin and clothes, worsening symptoms as you sleep. Take a pre-bedtime hot shower to reduce irritation and soothe allergic reactions to ensure a peaceful sleep. Alternatively, immerse yourself in a warm bath with baking soda for 30 to 60 minutes or opt for quick 15-minute soaks with ground oatmeal to relieve itching. For a refreshing cleanse, try First Botany All Natural Tea Tree Body Wash, $22.99, enriched with potent tea tree and eucalyptus oils to soothe irritation and washes away impurities from head to toe.

Reach Out to Dermatologist
When allergies have your skin feeling out of control, it might be time to call in the experts! A dermatologist gives your skin a thorough check-up, figures out what's causing all the trouble, and whip up a personalized plan to keep your skin happy and healthy. Plus, they can perform allergy tests to pinpoint exactly what's setting off your skin and steer you toward the right treatments.
