My little one recently was covered in big, welted bites and needed a quick DIY bite balm. This recipe worked a treat, and she stopped scratching straight away.

Ingredients

1 tbsp Shea Butter (Refined)

1 tbsp Coconut Oil

1/2 tbsp Beeswax

1/4 tsp Peppermint Oil

1/4 tsp Lavender Oil

1/4 tsp Orange Oil

1/4 tsp Eucalyptus Oil

1/8 tsp Tea Tree Oil

Preparation

Mix the above ingredients in a saucepan, warm on very low heat until all melted together.
Pour mix into jar/tin to use.

Note: if you like a whipped product, allow to cool but not set and whip with hand beaters.
