LOVE {magical arnica gel}

Have you heard of Arnica Gel? If not, then you NEED to run to your nearest Trader Joe's/Henry's and get some! It's magical, I swear. Let's say you bang your knee on a door jamb/coffee table/washing machine, like I do about 3x a week. Arnica Gel completely prevents what would most likely turn into a week's worth of gorgeous, multi-colored bruises. If you are clumsy like me, then you NEED Arnica.

Sooooo, what is Arnica, you ask? It's a non-sticky, odorless homeopathic (aka NATURAL) remedy for swelling, soreness, and bruising. If you know anything about my husband and his daredevil tendencies, then you can imagine that we use quite a bit of it in our household! I even put it on those pesky bug bites that get all swollen and painful. (Just be sure to avoid any broken skin/open wounds!)


The sooner you apply Arnica to the site of the injury, the better, so make sure you have some Arnica in your medicine cabinet, your kid's sports bags, and your hiking pack. We literally don't leave home without it!
