The other day I brewed up a batch of Wellness Mama's Bug-Off Lotion Bars, and last night we got the chance to try them out. We were both amazed! Not a single bug harrassed us during last nights Aquatennial Firworks display! We strolled and sat for a good 90 minutes in bug-less peace. The mosquitoes have been terrible this year, and the spiders on our balcony have been active, too, I got three successive spider bites on my arm a few weeks ago from what I believe (hope) was a jumping spider. The lotion bars are easy to apply, though they melt incredibly fast, so we applied it as fast as we could. We just stroked the bar over our skin and then rubbed it in. It's a wonderfully hydrating lotion that smells mostly like the chocolately scent of cocoa butter. Since I'm not a huge chocolate fan, I may invest in some Shea butter the next time I make these so that I may smell the delicious herbs over the oils, but catnip is such a strong scent that perhaps I'd be better off smelling like chocolate than have my cats licking me every time I wear this!
Two thumbs up for the Bug-Off Lotion Bars!
