Natural Skin Care, Herbal Salves, and DEET-Free Bug Spray - Personal Care with ingredients you can actually pronounce.

Flip over most bug sprays and skin creams and you'll find a chemistry exam. This collection is the opposite: small-batch, natural remedies - most of them made in the USA - with ingredient lists that read like a garden, not a lab.

We're a family business, and these are literally the products in OUR medicine cabinets. When the kids come in scratched, stung, sunburned, or mosquito-bitten (so, every day of summer), this shelf is where we go first.

Nature called. It has remedies:

  • The summer double-act: spray on DEET-free 911 Bug Off before you head out, and keep 911 Relief on hand for the bites you got anyway. It also calms sunburn, poison ivy, and even jellyfish stings (Lake Michigan is safe on that last one, but still).
  • The legendary one: B&W Burn and Wound Ointment is an Amish-made salve with a devoted following for burns, cuts, and scrapes. Households that have it, never let the jar run empty.
  • Sore muscles and hard-working hands: Natural Hope Herbals' Deep Tissue Salve after yard work is a ritual around here. Their Garlic Salve is the old-time chest rub grandma swore by, and honestly? Grandma was onto something.
  • Wellness from the inside: Organic Super Tonic for cold season and Energizing Morning Greens for the rest of the year.
  • Want to learn the craft? The Practical Home Herbal Guide teaches which remedy does what, so the shelf works even harder.

From our medicine cabinet to yours.

Kooi Housewares is a family-owned store in Muskegon, Michigan, and this collection exists because we kept getting asked "what do YOU use?" This is it. The real list. We wouldn't sell a salve we wouldn't put on our own kids.
