Bug Bite Balm
$32.00
What It Smells Like
Opens bright and citrusy, lemongrass and lemon balm up front, then settles into green basil and rosemary with a clean tea-tree finish. Herbal and fresh, never perfumey.
Scent intensity:Moderate
A botanical skin-conditioning balm with a cooling, refreshing aromatic experience. Unlike balms that rely on chemical cooling agents, this formula draws its character from whole herbs slow-infused in organic oils: lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus), lemon balm (Melissa officinalis), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum), and lemon mint (Monarda citriodora), finished with tea tree essential oil (Melaleuca alternifolia) for a crisp, herbal finish. The base is cold-extracted extra virgin olive oil and unrefined virgin coconut oil, warmed and blended with pure beeswax (which sets the balm) and Vitamin E (a natural antioxidant that keeps the oil fresh), lightweight, non-greasy, and shelf-stable. Gentle enough for children and sensitive skin. Free from fillers, alcohol, parabens, and preservatives.
2oz amber glass jar, amber glass is the gold standard for herbal balms, preserving potency and protecting against UV degradation

Signature Use

Beach days, campouts, evenings on the porch. Bug Bite Balm goes where your family goes: a bright, citrusy dab of lemongrass, lemon balm, and rosemary that comforts skin after a day outside. Gentle enough for children and sensitive skin, small enough for any bag.

A balm is mostly its oils, so they’re the part we spend the most on. This formula is built on organic extra-virgin olive oil and unrefined coconut oil, cold-pressed and certified organic: oils rich enough to stand alone as skincare. Deeply emollient, naturally antioxidant, and chosen to carry our garden herbs further than a cheap refined base ever could.
Background reading on how this product is made and why it's different.
Bug bites are part of life, especially in humid climates. Here are five botanicals with real science behind them, and why whole-herb infusion delivers more than a few drops of essential oil ever could.

Most bug bite products use diluted essential oils. Here's why slow-infusing whole lemongrass and basil into carrier oil tells a completely different story for your skin.

Florida spring is stunning, and buggy. Here's what herbalists have traditionally reached for, and how whole-herb infusions bring those botanicals straight to your skin.
Read articleA little goes a long way, a small dab is all you need. Even shared across an active outdoor family of five, one 2oz / 57g jar typically lasts six months to a year of regular use.
Yes, the herbs in our infusions are grown in our own Tallahassee garden and infused whole. The oils, beeswax, and essential oils that finish each formula come from trusted suppliers.
No, and it does not need them. Every InVine formula is waterless. Microbes need water to grow, so there is nothing for a preservative to protect against. Vitamin E is an antioxidant that keeps the oils fresh, not a preservative. Keep the jar closed and keep water out of it.
Keep it below about 75°F and out of direct sunlight. Botanical formulas can soften in summer heat, if that happens in transit, let the jar rest at room temperature and it will settle back down.
