This £8 body oil is so good at stopping insect and mosquito bites even the SAS are said to use it

Avon's £8 Skin So Soft body oil is not only great at keeping your skin soft and hydrated, but it also doubles as a super effective insect repellant spray too

While many insect repellent sprays are readily available, many often fall short in effectiveness, not to mention they usually carry an overpowering chemical scent that's less than appealing to wear. Another satisfied customer shared: "Having suffered from some quite large mosquito bites and having tried lots of different repellants (which mostly smell awful), a friend recommended the Avon Skin So Soft Dry Oil Body Spray and having read all of the reviews, I thought I'd give it a try. The citronella aroma is not only delightful but also highly effective in warding off flies and insects, whilst steering clear of harsh chemical odours.
