Product Features:
• In a base of grapeseed and vitamin E oils, this incredibly effective, 100% natural body spray contains a special blend of pure essential oils of citronella, lemongrass, lavender, siberian fir and eucalyptus that keep mosquitos and other bugs at bay. • It lightly moisturizes the skin while the fragrant blend wards off even the most persistent of mosquitoes. • Created and made in Jamaica (they know mosquitos!) this is a great alternative to drugstore type chemical-based bug sprays. Unlike those potentially harsh synthetic repellents, this spray is non-toxic and safe for children and those with sensitive skin -- and it smells wonderfully fresh. • A must-have for summer fun, it's a perfect travel size bottle too. Made in Jamaica.
Customer Reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: it can't control mosquitoes if you can't stand to wear it! Comment: DEET worries me, as it's a known carcinogen, so there's the trade-off of avoiding malaria while in the tropics vs. slowly building up toxins in your body. So I decided to try a 'natural' product that didn't contain DEET. Sadly, the scent of the Starfish Oils spray was unpleasant enough that I went back to using the DEET spray. I tried the Starfish Oils once on my trip to Cambodia, and I still got a few mosquito bites, so it isn't completely effective at warding off mosquitoes. That in combo with the highly citronella-y scent made me head back to the more-toxic but more-effective DEET spray. I do have a sensitive nose and have a dislike of citronella, so this may be fine for others that aren't as sensitive. For guaranteed efficacy though, go with the DEET, and no higher than 20% DEET because higher than that is no more effective, but is exposing you to higher levels of toxins.
