You need:
-Organic essential citronella oil (It HAS to be essential oil)
-any body lotion with no particularly strong scent
-measuring cup
-container to store the mosquito repellant lotion
For each 100 ml of body lotion add 6 drops of citronella oil.Mix well and store up to 4 weeks in a cool place.
I have to emphasize that it is very important that you buy essential oil,because scented oils/aroma oils are not suitable for the application on the human body.Essential oils are safe to use.
And if you have a tendency to allergies,please test a tiny amount of essential oil on your skin for 24 hours.
i think i'll pass on this, since i have very allergy prone skin...it sux sooo much, i bought bug repellent from wal-mart~~~i think its good enough to last me a while since i, not very out-doresey anyway~~~

Catnip oil works well too. Bit dangerous if you have a lot of cats though.
ReplyDeleteI tried other bug repellent but it doesn't work. I guess those mosquito loves me:)
