AVONSkin So Soft Original Body Lotion

This Skin So Soft lotion is very good for moisturizing your skin. The reports are true, it appears to repel mosquitoes too. I remember this lotion from when I was a little girl and it is still an excellent product. The scent is not overpowering, a clean scent. The lotion absorbs well and not greasy.

I used this in a trip down south as an insect repellant. It’s the only thing that worked for me. I love the lotion on its own, but the insect protection is great. First time that I came home without a single gnat or sand flea bite! I recommend this product & this Seller b

We live in NC and our house backs up to the woods. After my 3 year old son had gotten bitten up by mosquitoes, despite putting bug repellent on him (Cutter Natural), I asked friends to recommend a safe, effective mosquito repellent I could use on my son. 3 out of the 8 people who replied recommended this product (Original Avon Skin So Soft).I was skeptical given this product isn't specifically designed to keep away mosquitos. Also, I associated Avon with MLMs (which I actively avoid). I decided to look it up on Amazon and found this. I was encouraged to see other people comment on its bug-repellent abilities. Since buying it, I have slathered it on my son about 7 different times and it has worked like a charm each time. 0 to 1 bites after more than hour of being outside. I don't have to worry about him inhaling spray or putting his hands or arm on his mouth after applying it.A lot cheaper than an overpriced bottle of Johnson and Johnson's Baby Creamy Oil with aloe and vitamin e (also known to keep away mosquitos).

I've used this stuff for years to ward off mosquitos in the summer and it always seem to work pretty well. I hadn't bought any in a few years and when I bought this I was a little disappointed. I'm not sure what the difference is but is just doesn't seem to work as well as the original version in the keeping the mosquitos at bay but it still a good lotion.

Love Avon lotions and glad I found them on Amazon.

Not only does this lotion moisturize the body, but it also minimize the amount of spider bites. You could possibly get mosquito bites you could get. I could put this on every night before I go to bed for a week and not get a single bite if I don’t wear it I end up with three or four a week. Just saying.

I decided to keep it, but it was pretty pricey for the size of bottle you get. It’s a nice lightweight lotion, very light and then not at all like I remembered from back in the day. It’s just kind of meh…

Excellent item outstanding
