I am very happy with this product and will make sure I keep a plentiful supply of this and maybe won't need so many antihistamine pills in future!

I have been using this for 10 or 12 days and have only suffered one bite and that was while pulling weeds out from between tall plants late in the afternoon .I was an Avon Skin so Soft regular until someone told me they’d changed the recipe and it doesn’t work now. Avon’s Skin So Soft This moisturizer was not created as a midge fighter but for some reason, someone realized it works against the beasties. Is that what it was designed for, no – but you will smell nice and have really soft skin for the little blighters to ‘possibly’ sink their teeth into.
