Allergy Warning: This salve contains sweet almond oil, a tree nut.
Oils
This natural insect repellent is made with organic, virgin, and cold-pressed sweet almond and sunflower oil. Sweet Almond Oil is a powerful moisturizer for dry and sensitive skin, including baby skin. It works to reduce excess sebum, inflammation, scars, dryness, eczema, and acne. Sweet almond oil can also lighten skin tone, dark circles, and support an even complexion. Sunflower oil is great for both dry, irritated skin or oily, acne-prone skin alike. It is gentle, lightweight, and will not clog pores. Sunflower oil is also highly moisturizing and healing, high in Vitamin E and oleic acid (omega 9 fatty acid) that provide natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It easily absorbs into the skin to lock in moisture, soothe and soften skin.

This stuff is GREAT. I use it on my 2 year old (who is a mosquito magnet!!) and it works really well. Plus, I feel so good about using this natural salve vs spray-on deet full of chemicals. It smells good, doesn’t leave a greasy residue, and works like a charm.

My 2 year old goes to an outdoor daycare in Maine. He came home covered in bug bites one day, so I decided to order this and WOW! It totally works! He hasn’t had a bug bite since! Thank you homestead and chill for making an organic bug balm that actually works!!
