TREK by Lemongrass Farms Becomes the First Topical Product to Earn SEED OIL FREE CERTIFIED Badge
Lemongrass Farms is proud to announce that TREK is the first-ever topical product to receive the SEED OIL FREE CERTIFIED badge from the Seed Oil Free Alliance.
This groundbreaking certification underscores TREK’s commitment to healthier seed oil-free living, challenging the status quo in the “natural” insect repellent industry. While many consumers have begun eliminating seed oils from their diets, TREK goes a step further by addressing the impact of seed oils on the skin.
According to Lemongrass Farms Co-Founder Jeff Moreau Jr., TREK’s creation stemmed from a desire to offer consumers an effective, nourishing bug spray they would truly love to use. "When we launched in 2023, our goal was to create a product that redefined what a natural insect repellent could be," said Moreau. "Most so-called ‘natural’ bug sprays are nearly 97% seed oils—like soybean or corn—which leave behind a greasy, pore-clogging mess. We saw this as a major barrier to consumer satisfaction. Imagine applying rancid cooking oil to your body before a summer hike—no one enjoys that experience."
By eliminating seed oils entirely and focusing on a cosmetic-grade experience, TREK has solved a long-standing problem in the insect repellent market, delivering a lightweight, skin-friendly formula that provides effective protection without the heavy, greasy residue. "At its core, being seed oil-free is the cornerstone of TREK’s innovation," Moreau added. "It’s more than just a formula choice—it’s central to our brand promise and user experience."
Jonathan Rubin, CEO and co-founder of the Seed Oil Free Alliance, praised TREK for leading the way in the topical category: "TREK has set a new standard for the industry. Many ‘all-natural’ repellents are laden with rancid seed oils, which not only clog pores but may disrupt the skin barrier or exacerbate inflammatory issues like sunburn or poison ivy. TREK’s seed oil-free approach shows their dedication to healthier, cleaner skincare."
The SEED OIL FREE CERTIFIED badge is a testament to TREK’s dedication to quality and innovation. It solidifies Lemongrass Farms’ mission to redefine what consumers should expect from natural bug sprays.
