Why Our Founder Made Our Bug Repellent Solid.

I know that when you think of bug repellents, you think of a spray.  When I set out to make a bug repellent that would be effective for the entire family, there was one issue that kept coming up.  Just because bug repellent is safe for your skin, it doesn't mean it should end up in your lungs.  Young children cannot effectively hold their breath to prevent aerosolized products from ending up in their lungs.  The solution was to create a solid bug repellent.

There are many other advantages as well: 

1. No need for harmful preservatives since it is free of water.

2. Ease for travel: It will not spill

3. Contains coconut oil: Coconut oil creates a surface which is too slippery for mosquitoes to land on. In a 2018 research article published in Scientific Reports, USDA’s Agricultural Research Service scientists identified specific coconut oil fatty acids including lauric acid, capric acid and caprylic acid that have strong repellency and long-lasting effectiveness against multiple insects.

How to Use:

1. Hold balm to skin to soften product.

2. Apply to exposed skin (Swipes to front and back of arms and legs is sufficient for entire area. You do not need to apply to every inch of exposed skin.)

3. For the head, swipes to the forehead and neck area is sufficient to protect the entire face.

4. Enjoy the outdoors bug free!
