· 120 mLWhy pharmacists picked this
This product smells great and is an effective plant-based repellent if you'd rather avoid DEET. It doesn't last as long, so it may not be the best for a heavy-duty walk in the woods. It isn't approved for children under 3, so it won't cover a whole family.

Pros
- May be gentler on skin because it uses only natural ingredients
- Made from plant-based ingredients
- Non-greasy and breaks down naturally in the environment
- Has a fresh lemony scent
- Simple ingredients
Cons
- Does not last as long as DEET or icaridin repellents, so it needs reapplying more often
- It hasn't been formally studied in pregnancy
Oil of lemon eucalyptus creates a barrier on the skin and masks the body odours that attract insects, so mosquitoes and other biting insects struggle to detect you and are less likely to land.
