Pain can be a powerful motivator, and for one California inventor, it became the spark behind a new topical remedy now seeking commercial partners. Markeita D. of Elk Grove, CA channeled her own struggles with extreme discomfort into Keitabalm, a versatile ointment she developed in January 2017 to tackle a range of everyday physical ailments.
The product is a blend of petroleum jelly, shea butter, beeswax, water, and optional essential oils, all combined into a topical balm meant for external application. It targets dry skin, chapped lips, muscle soreness, joint pain, inflammation, and other common irritants. Its compact jar design also makes it easy to keep on hand, whether at home, in a bag, or while traveling.
For Markeita, the balm is more than just a formula — it’s a personal mission born from lived experience.

“Realizing how beneficial Keita Balm is, I want to share my story because it has helped me through extreme pain,” she explains.
That belief in her creation led her to adopt the slogan, “Heal the World One Jar at a Time,” a phrase that captures her hope that others can find relief through an invention rooted in her own journey.
