This balm is amazing!

“This balm is amazing. I received it yesterday, and while getting a hot baking pan out of the oven I burned myself. I normally use honey but instead I used The Balm and it took the burning sting out of it. This morning, there is no burn mark and no pain.” Marcia

MAGICAL!!!

“I have used it for sun burned lips, dry hands, body massage, sore muscles and use it almost everyday!! “MAGICAL!!” Brett

Finally beat the diaper rash!

“My son had a friction/ chafing rash where his diaper hits his inner leg for 2.5 months. Nothing we tried was really helping much, even switching diapers. We were at our wits end. Then it was suggested that we try this. Cleared it up in a matter of days! Now anytime he’s starting to look irritated or he scratches himself, I put this on and it disappears in hours. Thank you so much!” acarruthers10
