Mosquito Repellent Recommendations

Here are some of the recommendations I received on IG. I obviously can't *prove* any of these work, but I'm about to try all of them!

PREVENTATIVE

J&J aloe lotion as a repellent

Lavender is perfect for mosquito repellent. Any specialty lavender shop should have a balm
Eucalyptus oil for repellent
White Flower External Analgesic Balm Oil (Pak Fah Yeow) as repellent and for soothing after bites

Dryer sheets (as repellent)
Herbaria Citronella Mist for repellent (DEET free)

AFTER
