Bug Off Essential Oil Solid Lotion Twist Tube

Some of the best ideas come from necessity. This one came from a camping trip, a cloud of mosquitoes, and a very strong opinion about not wanting to spray chemicals on my skin before bed.

I went home and got to work. What came out of that is this little tube, our Bug Off Essential Oil Solid Lotion Twist Tube, and honestly, it's become one of my favorite things we make.

It's a solid lotion, so it glides on smooth and actually nourishes your skin while it works. No greasy spray residue, no DEET, no liquid to leak in your bag. Just a compact, lightweight twist tube packed with nine pure essential oils that bugs genuinely don't love: lemon, wintergreen, white thyme, oregano, lavender, lemongrass, citronella, camphor, and Sicilian lemon. Together they create this bright, herby, almost spa-like scent that I find myself reaching for even on days I'm just puttering around the garden.

And here's something worth mentioning: with a spray, you inevitably end up inhaling a pretty potent cloud of essential oils every time you apply it. With a solid stick, you just swipe it on. The scent is there, it's lovely, but you're not breathing in a concentrated mist of the whole blend. That's a real difference, especially if you're using it on kids or applying it often throughout the day.

Because it's solid, it's also completely travel and hike-friendly. No liquids means no TSA drama, no spills in your pack, and no added weight on the trail. Tuck it in your hip belt pocket, your carry-on, your kid's backpack. It just goes where you go.
