Calamine Powder for chicken pox

[Munchkinola]

Does anyone know where I can buy this as it seems to be working wonders on my dd's spots. My friend lent me some which she got from Spain and I would like to replace it.

I have googled it and it seems to used in aromatherapy and LUSH soaps but haven't found anywhere I can buy it.

Thank you

I got some powder from a pharmacy in France a couple of years ago when DS1 got chickenpox on holiday...I don't actually know what the active ingredient was, but it worked wonders. It was in a blue tube with white writing. I can't remember the name (sorry!) and I haven't seen anything here which looks the same. My Dad, who's a vet, suggested it might be the equivilent of Mange (sp?) powder for dogs!

I found something called anti monkey butt powder which is to stop bikers getting an embarrassing rash, maybe thats the same stuff

Although I'm not sure I wanted to use something thats for bikers gbums on my dd delicate face

you can get aqueous cream with calamine in it at chemists
