Review on πŸ‘Ά 8 oz Johnson's Baby Creamy Oil with Cocoa & Shea Butter by Summer Zitzner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great mosquito repellent!

I bought two tubes of this cream because I like to sit on the porch after dinner and my house is surrounded by forest. I'm one of those people who attract mosquitoes and I got bitten about 8 times an hour and each bite was swollen and itchy for several days. I read that this cream completely protects you from mosquitoes, so I decided to try it. Other sites like Target and Walmart sold it for a lot less, but they sold out. The cream feels good on the skin and is an excellent moisturizer. It smells like sunscreen and won't leave oily stains on furniture when you sit down after applying it to the back of your legs. I was skeptical at first but it really seems to have helped. I've only been bitten twice in two weeks. Maybe I missed a place, or maybe I got bitten by another bug. However, you must rub it on every stain. At first I didn't put it to my ears and got bitten there. But overall it looks like it did the job. A little more expensive on the Revain website, especially if you want to use it for the whole family. But as I said, there are other places where they are sold cheaper. You can save a lot of money if you buy it in winter before everyone else has sold it out, but I didn't want to wait. However, the cream does not repel flies. It's MUCH nicer and cheaper than Deep Woods OFF and pesticide free. Also, you don't have to frantically take a shower to take it off when you go to bed like "OFF" does. I'm sure it's much safer for babies and children. I'll be stocking up next year to give some tubes to my grandkids who inherited my "mosquito magnet" gene, but I'll buy it at Target or Walmart so it's cheaper, in bulk to buy. I would have given five stars if it wasn't for the price. Hack: Register an online account with these stores and try to order now. If they are out of stock they will let you know when they have more. You are ready for next summer! Someone mentioned that you can also let wet hair run a bit at the beach or pool and it will protect your hair from the sun and make it soft and shiny, but I didn't go to the beach this year so I didn't try it . this listing myself. I hope this review was helpful!
