I created these bug repellent balms when my son and baby started having really bad reactions to mosquitos and march flies. I didn't want to use commercial repellents with their sensitive skin so these were the perfect solution.

These solid bars are handmade using our own beeswax from our hives that we keep using holistic beekeeping principles that are gentle and put the bees health and needs first.

To compliment our bees hard work we use only natural ingredients blended to make a balm that not only moisturizes the skin but doesn't use extra plastic and packaging that come with many products.

Ingredients - Beeswax, Calendula infused coconut oil (We hand pick our organically grown Calendula flowers then air dry them before infusing them with organic coconut oil.), Cocos Nucifera (Coconut Oil), Butyrospermum Parkii Butter (Shea Butter) , Mango Butter ,Hemp seed oil, Cymbopogon Nardus (Citronella Oil), Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender Oil), Mentha Piperita (Peppermint Oil), Eucalyptus , Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary Leaf Extract), 


How to use: Rub the balm directly onto skin or in your hands to warm the lotion then apply where needed or all over! In cooler months your balm maybe harder than usual but this does not effect the product it will soften on contact with your skin.

Storage instructions: keep out if extreme heat or it will melt if it melts pop in the fridge or a cool spot and it will resolidify. If travelling Keep the balm in a container or compostable zip lock bag to avoid staining of clothes or other items it comes in contact with and although it is all natural it’s not to be eaten (my kids try though!)

For external use only. Do not eat. If irritation occurs discontinue use. Keep out of reach of children. Suitable for ages two years and over. For younger children or if pregnant consult your medical practitioner to run through the ingredients before using. For sensitive skin best to test patch before use. If irritation occurs discontinue use.
