Soothing Bug Bite Balm Roll-On for Itch Relief

Author: Mama Z

Ingredients

  • 5 drops peppermint essential oil
  • 5 drops lavender essential oil
  • Carrier oil *

Instructions

  • Add the peppermint and lavender essential oils to the glass roller bottle.
  • Fill the roller bottle the rest of the way with carrier oil, leaving enough room to replace the lid.
  • Replace the lid and shake until well blended.
  • Apply directly to bug bites.

Notes

*No matter what allergies you may have, there’s a carrier oil that’s right for you. You can use any, or a combination of these: Avocado, Fractionated Coconut, Grapeseed, Jojoba, Sweet Almond. The best carrier oils for this recipe are fractionated coconut oil and jojoba oil because they absorb quickly and work the best. I always do half fractionated coconut oil and organic jojoba oil. These are our favorite carrier oils. Click here to see more options.
