LNN - 22 hours ago, Verified purchaser
I’ve been using this on my toddler during outdoor play and I’m really happy with it! It has a noticeable scent, but it’s not overwhelming and most importantly it works. We’ve had fewer bug bites since using it and I feel better knowing it’s DEET-free and made with plant based ingredients. It doesn’t irritate my child sensitive skin and it’s easy to apply. Definitely a must have for Park days or backyard play.
Caused itchy rash

Nk - 4 days ago
Caused itchy rash. So glad I tried it on myself before my babies. Wore it to the beach to ward off no-see-um's & mosquitos. Got bit & rash everywhere I squirted it. I would agree w/ the oily texture--- they should warn you. I'd been ok with that if I knew to expect it, but a rash after one application & washing off at end of day is no go.

Left oil stains on clothing. Soybean oil is the main ingredient. Would not recommend. Though the scent is fine.

This is my favorite one to use! Yes, it’s natural, it’s oily, but that’s what it’s made of. It seems to work fairly well, just have to remember to apply everywhere and even reapply, but I love this stuff!

I buy this stuff every year and it usually works really well. This year though, it has been completely useless. My kids are covered in bug bites even though we have been keeping ourselves sprayed down.
SO GREASY! Feels nasty

KelseyK - 3 months ago
Jury is still out on whether it’s effective, but OMG ITS SO GREASY. It doesn’t feel like normal bug spray. It absolutely makes sense, now that I’m reading the ingredient list. It’s a mixture of about 8 different oils, and nothing else. It feels like you’re rubbing olive oil on your skin. It’s pretty gross feeling, and I’m not a fan.
Reapply every hour?!

Master Splinter - 10 months ago, Verified purchaser
Not effective. I have a 2 year old and the mosquitos landed on us and bit us WHILE we were spraying it. I sprayed it AT the mosquitos and it did not repell them; tried spraying before going outside, while outside. It was never effective for us, unfortunately. I even sprayed it at the mosquitos so either we have been encountering the robocop version of mosquitos or they just really don't care. It also leaves an oily like trail of product on whatever it's sprayed on, including skin

NH - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Our whole family uses this for protection from bugs. It’s very effective and natural which is a big plus! The only thing is it’s a little oily but that’s to be expected because of the ingredients. It’s well worth a little greasy skin!
I’m a believer!!

I bought this for the first time years ago and it changed my perspective on natural remedies. I live in Minnesota, where we joke about the mosquito being the state insect. I sent a bottle with my child when she visited the Deep Portage Learning Center and while everyone else was using25-40% deet bug sprays and getting eaten up, she was using Babyganics and was the only one who wasn’t being bothered by mosquitoes.

I bought this for my toddler, I’ve heard a lot about natural oils to repel mosquitos. It doesn’t work. We went to Wyoming and the mosquitos were so bad. I lathered my son in this repellent 3 times and he still got so many mosquito bites that he started to swell up. I then put a different brand of repellent on him, and he never got bit again the whole trip. I do not recommend this product.
Only use if you want to attract bees instantly

Tried for the first time tonight and we couldn’t escape the BEES that kept following us everywhere. Never had an issue like this before. Now my 2yo is scared to go outside because of the bees.
