Love it! That’s an amazing idea. I love that you made it so portable

Thanks! You could also use the infused nettle oil you made in this!

Great idea! I made some big bite balm with the lime balm & citronella from my garden. I added some eucalyptus oil and it works so good!

@@amomspointofview2250 That sounds awesome! I bet it smells amazing, too.

Great job! I totally wanted to cheer for you at the end.. lol. So how did it work on your bug bites this summer?

By the way, I think the jojoba oil is a brilliant idea - it'll extend the shelf life even farther. I wouldn't try it with sunflower oil, seems you just have to look at sunflower oil and it goes rancid, but jojoba is known for helping other oils it's mixed with to keep longer. Totally inspired choice. I wouldn't have thought of it. :)

This stuff is amazing! It really works fast on mosquito bites and blackberry thorn scratches and random little itchy bumps. I gave some to a few friends and family and more than one person reported back that it was “magical!” 😂 Itchy stick for the win 🙌🏻 And thanks! I use jojoba oil in just about everything. It is my absolute favorite. Thanks for the tip about the sunflower oil!

That's awesome! I'm totally going to try this. I've been looking for something to replace the chemical laden stuff I used to use for bug bite itch from the pharmacy. Thanks so much for sharing this! :)
