1. Is the Product Deet Free?
Yes. This formula contains no DEET or synthetic pesticides. It relies on a plant-based blend of essential oils for protection.
2. How do I use it?
Shake well before each use. Spray evenly onto exposed skin, holding the bottle 6–8 inches away. Reapply as needed, especially after swimming, heavy sweating, or prolonged outdoor activity.
3. How long does protection last?
Protection time varies based on conditions such as heat, humidity, and activity level. For best results, reapply every few hours or as needed.
4. Is it safe for children?
This formula is made with gentle, plant-based ingredients. However, as with any essential oil product, we recommend patch testing first and consulting a pediatrician for use on young children.
5. Does it feel sticky or greasy?
No. The formula is lightweight and non-greasy. Jojoba oil helps keep skin soft without leaving a heavy residue.

It has a fresh, clean botanical scent from the essential oil blend — citrusy and herbal with light mint and floral notes.

Yes, it can be lightly misted on clothing if desired. Always test on a small, hidden area first, as essential oils may affect certain fabrics.

Yes. Because this is a natural formula containing oils, shake well before each use to ensure even distribution.

Witch hazel helps deliver the essential oils evenly, provides a light refreshing feel, and supports a clean, non-greasy texture while offering mild skin-soothing benefits.

Yes. It has been field-tested in the Costa Rican jungle under real outdoor conditions.
11. How should I store it?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use.
