About

10 years of trial and error built our lightly-scented classic formula. Powerful enough to help the driest skin yet delicate enough for children, our veteran-made body butter is a winner!

Our mission is to equip the world with natural weapons to fight for healthy skin! Nature's Arsenal is locally owned and operated in Boise, Idaho. 

I'm Aaron Cook, founder and owner of Nature's Arsenal LLC. I've always had dry skin and it was difficult to find lotion good enough to help without repeated applications. Store bought lotion usually had overpowering scents that were either clearly designed with feminine sensibility in mind or were so hyper-masculine they would make a certain locker room body spray jealous. It also had ingredients lists that left a lot to be desired - you'd have to be a chemist to pronounce most of the contents, and the first ingredient is water; I don't want to pay for water!

Back in 2013 I honorably discharged from the US Marine Corps. Less than 8 months later I randomly developed type 1 diabetes. Overnight, my skin got even worse. Regular lotions didn't cut it anymore - my skin was cracking and bleeding in some places, scaly and ashy in others. The store bought lotion almost seemed to make it worse, stinging the cracks in my skin. I knew there had to be a better way. 

I began making my own lotion from all-natural ingredients. My first recipe was just coconut oil and way too much cedarwood oil - horrible! I researched new ingredients and tried a laundry list of different things, spending 10 years changing and fine-tuning the recipe to be everything I needed: delicately scented and gender-neutral, but with potent skin protection and no harsh chemicals. Now the whole family uses it, including our four kids! 

Nature's Arsenal was founded to bring this phenomenal formula to the world. We believe the best things in life come from the God-given gifts in nature, and these natural remedies should be our first line of defense for all of life's challenges. That's why we use only the finest ingredients, from vendors who are hand-picked for their consistent quality (and USA-based for any ingredient that can be produced domestically). 

Nature's Arsenal is proud to be veteran-owned, built on Christian values, and completely natural. We are free of parabens, sulfates, nitrates, dyes, artificial fragrances, petroleum products, phthalates, preservatives, and synthetic ingredients of any kind. Our metal tins are BPA free and reusable, and the labels are easily removable with no residue.
