The dkSummerFun Giveaway is all about having safe, earth friendly outdoor fun, and if you’re going to be taking those little ones into the great wilderness, whether it’s camping or just the backyard, you’re probably wondering how you’ll protect them from nasties like mosquitoes and sunburn in the most natural way possible. Thanks to Badger Balm, one of you will receive the solution, a $26 value, for free!
Badger Balm doesn’t just make great chapsticks and sleep balms. These guys have the most natural sunscreen I’ve come across yet. I tested it out recently during a summer art fair. My son wore the SPF 15 to protect his skin from the intense noontime sun while being carted around a hot and humid downtown. Since the sunscreen is water resistant, it didn’t sweat off and he stayed protected. I’ve tried a multitude of natural sunscreens, and some are impossibly streaky or the ingredients separate in the tube. And no matter how natural they say they are, there’s usually ingredients I cannot pronounce. Badger Balm has a smooth and even consistency, and the ingredients are all pronounceable and recognizable. (Check for sunscreen ingredients here.) Also just as natural and easy to use is the Anti-Bug Balm which comes in a push-up stick form, sort of like an overgrown chapstick tube. Both products smell great and are very effective. In fact, I’m throwing out the natural sunscreen and bug repellents I used last year and replacing them with Badger Balm. How to win your own? Read on…

you sunscreen, I am very light skin burn quickly. How high does you spf go.
The Joint Soother balm really caught my eye. At my age and activity level, this would sure help. Thank you for the contest.
Oh wow, that headache soother balm would be a godsend, that sounds fantastic! I never would have realized that the balms contain extra virgin olive oil, its wonderful to be able to recognize the names on the label, usually everything contains chemicals. This is a great giveaway, thanks!
Oh my! Anti-Bug Balm that works AND is natural … I’d rather use that then spritzing Listerine all over the place … (someone just sent me an email saying that Listerine works great for getting rid of mosquitoes!!) This sounds a lot better
!
The bug balm looks pretty useful and I’d love to see how it works.
would love to try the Sleep Balm
Love organic products! The Evolving Balm sounds interesting.
I like the baby Night Night balm and also the SPF 30 For Face & Body, as I try to use products that are as natural and chemical-free as possible. Thanks for sharing!

I like the Bug Balm because I hate having mosquitoes (or in Aussie lingo, mozzies
) flying around trying to bite me while I am doing yardwork. What a superb giveaway. I hope I win so I can enjoy doing yardwork bug-free.
Well, all of their products look great to me; but I especially enjoy the fact that they are aware and are an actively green company. Its also great that they use 100% organic olive oil in their products!
Thanks, great giveaway!

Great prize especially for this time of year. Our backyard has more mosquitoes that a swamp!
Thanks for all the great contests!
The Joint Soother balm sounds like a must have! Thanks for the giveaway.
i would like the foot balm or the sleep balm. the website is very easy to navigate and the earthy colors are appropriate
I’m really interested in the sleep balm. Sometimes all it takes is some calmning surroundings. I love the earth friendly posts you have on your site. We should all look for ways to keep our carbon footprint small by using more natural and organic products
My little badger would love the Night Night Balm. She gets sad at bedtime, so I think a special scented balm would help her make the transition to dreamland.

I’d like to try the bug balm.
I’m really impressed by the philosophy of the company behind it. They seem very socially responsible and I appreciate that. As for the products, if that headache soothing balm works, that would be such a wonderful thing!
Hi, I have wanted to win this product line for quite awhile. I have read so many good things about them! I am down with a bad right knee. The “Joint Balm” sounds really good about now! Please enter me in your marvelous contest. All is appreciated. Thanks, Cindi
The cocoa vanilla body butter sounds heavenly.
My goodness; you learn something new every day. I KNEW of Badger Balm but I had no idea there were so many different variety’s. I would start out trying the Night Night Balm if I were to choose only one. They all look wonderful and I just love the company philosophy!
Great giveaway; thanks!
