Shari on Aug 12, 2014In the past, we've only had so-so results with Skin So Soft, plus it's super fragrant and a bit too oily for my liking. I found this link via HomeTalk. She gives a "recipe" using essential oils. I've never tried this but essential oils are great for so many things so it would not surprise me if this worked well. She also provides links to buy the necessary ingredients but I'm sure you could find them locally in a heath food store that carries essential oils. http://www.scratchmommy.com/bye-bye-bugs-especially-mosquitoes/Helpful Reply
