Spencer's Gel Alkaline Formula (4 oz) - lab-Certified to Kill Staph aureus on Skin Contact

Hate wearing surgical masks as they irritate my skin but they are a must at some places. The gel is cooling and calms the bumps caused by long hours of mask-wearing.

I am so very thankful to have run across this y'all! I have been dealing with a open wound on the top side of my foot that just would not heal. A undiagnosed or self-diagnosed Morgellons wound, I'm certain of. I have tried so many products before this. Starting with the most common like Neosporin only to learn it's really not very helpful, Prescription topicals, Oral antibiotics, manuka honey and tons of other healing salves/ creams. All would seem to help for a little while then hit a plateau sort of speak. I finally started to give silver a try orally and topically. Which made such a huge difference in such a short time. Y'all This wound has been a pain in the butt every day for almost 3 years now. That meant no days out on the water during the summer months (something I live for). Also means no tennis shoes or cute boots during the colder months. I've been able to wear flip flops and flats. The frustration was no joke. After running out of my oral colloidal silver so came to amazon to repurchase, I ended up down a rabbit hole of products and their reviews. I actually had seen spencer's gel a few times before but thought Oh that's for staph or dang that's sort of costly. I always just passed by it. Until one day I saw someone on YouTube raving about how well it has helped them with some bed sores. I don't know if it was the universe speaking to me or what, but I decided my foot was worth the cost even if it didn't work. I'm worth the cost, losing my foot and or even my entire leg has always been my worry. Maybe a little dramatic.... maybe not. Thanks to this product I will never know because my foot is now 98% healed. I can wear tennis shoes again. There is no open wound anymore. It's all surface now. Almost like a minor scratch. I honestly think that the silver alone may have healed it but on a very slow pace. Once I added in the spencer's gel The healing took off. Within a month or so give or take, I'm so happy to say This issue is almost a thing of my past. You all may be thinking " You didn't have to tell us all that" and you're right, I didn't. My point in doing so is to tell you #1 You are worth the cost of this amazing product. #2 Just because it says something about being for staph doesn't mean it won't work for your issue. It's so worth giving it a shot. I saw a big difference after the very first application. Then after a week of using it daily the difference was unbelievable. That being said give it a little bit to do its thing. #3 Is because I wanted everyone to get an idea of how bad I was struggling with this wound on my foot. I want to scream from the roof tops about how much it helped me. Morgellons or not I'm so much happier and healthier mentally and physically because of this $20 gel. Y'all you are worth it cost... I'm telling you give it a try. Then keep some in your medical stash.

My partner,myself& daughter have all used this for different skin issues from fragile skin to burning skin. It works on application on every event.

I bought this product and returned it, and wanted to leave a review in case it helps others. The Amazon listing states: “lab-certified to kill Staph aureus on skin contact.” But the label on the actual bottle says: “does not prevent Staph or MRSA and is not an antibacterial cleanser.” These two statements are at odds, and the marketing feels very carefully worded. Looking more closely at the ingredients (which I should have done beforehand), the formula is basically a high-alkaline gel with citrus oils. High alkalinity can kill bacteria in a lab dish, which is likely what the claim refers to, but that’s not the same as being an antibacterial product for use on actual skin. Human skin naturally has an acidic surface layer (“acid mantle”), and using highly alkaline products can disrupt that balance. For people with sensitive or compromised skin, that can sometimes make things worse rather than better. Overall, the product did not match the impression given by the listing, and I chose to return it.

I am on my 11th day of struggling with uticaria otherwise unspecified -- meaning I have a rash that turned into raging hives and I have no idea how or where I got this problem. I have cried and scratched and shredded my skin. I've seen a dermatologist twice, I'm on prednisone and a prescription antihistamine AND a topical steroid ointment. All of the above plus 6 or more zyrtec a day (which obviously I do not advise anyone else to do) was not even touching how itchy this rash was/is. I ordered this product (Spencer's Gel) for overnight delivery out of pure desperation after another sleepless night and clawing at my skin until it bled and I cried. This is the ONLY thing that literally worked on contact. Even cortisone cream didn't do that, nor sulfur ointment, nor calamine lotion or diaper rash ointment or cornstarch. Spencer's Gel literally soothed my raging rash and hives instantly. I am dumbfounded. I stopped everything I was doing to write this review. I'm still under a doctor's care and we will get the results of a skin biopsy sometime this week. But at least in the meantime I can finally get back to the business of life without everything being about this awful rash. Updated 6/10/2026: As unbelievable as it is, I was foolish enough to get my second shingles shot about a week after my original rash began to disappear. I briefly hesitated in the doctor's office and then decided to just get the shot and oh, what a huge mistake that was. Big HUGE mistake. The next day a familiar tingling began to light up previously affected areas, especially my ankles, lower legs, the tops of my feet and the backs of my hands. It was a different rash, I could tell, but it was no less itchy than the first one. I was in disbelief. And even the original Spencer's gel did not relieve the unbearable and near-constant itching. So I took a chance and ordered a bottle of the Spencer's Gel Max Strength and thankfully it helped. I was still woken up once per night with unbearable itching and I scratched myself into a bloody oblivion all over again. Ugh. It's been a week since that happened and with the help of the Max gel and copious amounts of Amazon brand allegra, it's finally started to calm down again. It's drying up and I can sleep through the night. What a disaster this has been, but I'm incredibly grateful this product exists and I have recommended it to everyone I know.
