Best Anti-itch Bug Bite Cream
It’s just about that time of year where bugs start coming out.
I always seem to attract all the mosquitos – and it always gets worse when I’m pregnant!
There are lots of bug sprays and repellants out there, and we have used most of them.
Sprays, candles, wipes. They all work pretty well.
I love this Bug Away Rollerball from Rocky Mountain Oils (the rollerball makes it so convenient!), especially if you are looking for something a little more natural.
But sometimes you still can’t prevent all those pesky bites.
So today I’m sharing a bug bite cream that can be made, stored and used all summer long.
I hope that this will be helpful for anyone looking for a little bug bite relief this summer!
