Don't Bug Me Bug Repellent Spray

Our spray for porch nights, sound-side sunsets and walks through the maritime forest. Seven essential oils, led by lemon eucalyptus and citronella, sit in a light base of aloe and witch hazel. It goes on wet, dries fast and smells like a summer garden. There is no DEET.

How to use

Shake well. Mist over exposed skin and clothing before you head out, and rub it in with your hands. Reapply as needed, and after swimming or a sweaty afternoon. Keep it away from your eyes, and spray it into your hands first for your face.
