Bug Off Soap

£5.00

When we started making our lovely soaps in Cyprus, this one very quickly became a best-seller. The natural essential oils are reputed to have insect-repelling properties, to help keep mossies away the natural way.

Use our Bug Off  soap on holiday to help keep mossies away the natural way or use it whilst fishing, walking, camping or at festivals. We started making our lovely soaps in Cyprus, where there are numerous biting critters like mosquitos and no-see-ums, and this useful soap very quickly became a best-seller.

We start with our lovely soap base and add insect-repelling essential oils of citronella, lemongrass and tea tree. There’s also soothing Aloe Vera (to help relieve the itch of existing bites) and cocoa butter and glycerine to moisturise dry, itchy skin.

Use this in the shower in the evening, and you really can smell the insect-repelling essential oils on your skin afterwards; and if you can smell them, so can the biting bugs. 

We also have a Hand and Body Lotion with Citronella, to use on any exposed skin before going outdoors. This is particularly popular with walkers, horse lovers and campers in the UK summer.

Soap bar is 90g e.
