ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
When the outdoors calls but the bugs insist on joining, this gentle yet effective bug spray offers a peaceful solution. Handcrafted with a thoughtful blend of lavender, citronella, lemongrass, geranium, and patchouli essential oils, each spritz creates a natural barrier that mosquitoes prefer to avoid.
The artisan has paired these time-honored botanical oils with soothing aloe vera and witch hazel, creating a formula that's as kind to your skin as it is effective at deterring unwanted visitors. The lightweight spray absorbs quickly without leaving sticky residue, making it perfect for garden gatherings, evening walks, or any outdoor adventure.
Housed in a recyclable aluminum bottle, this small batch bug repellent proves that protecting yourself from pests doesn't require harsh chemicals. Simply shake, spray, and step confidently into nature's embrace, knowing you're covered by the gentle power of plants.
