This balm is amazing. I describe it as natural Sudocrem. Whenever I have anything wrong on any part of my body, be it an insect bite, a particular dry bit of skin, plant sting (itchiness), this is the one. Can I especially recommend it for soothing insect bites and also stopping the itching if there is no tiger balm around. It's a beautiful multi purpose balm and I always have a pod in my bag incase of any emergencies!
