Skin So Soft may have worked on a golf course, but in the Everglades the one student who refused a DEET based spray was lunch!
The Skin So Soft must have performed as the ad implies - because she was covered with bites from ear to rear. Strangely, she still believed in Skin So Soft.
Perhaps she was the offspring of Libtards? That would be the only reason I can imagine that after being lunched and munched on by umpteen skeeters, she still believed in that stuff.
Avon makes a Skin So Soft version of a mosquito repellent, using Picaridin, also known around the world as KBR3023, or Bayrepel (trademark of Bayer AG) instead of DEET.
I was under the impression that Skin So Soft was ineffective, as your anecdote suggests.
This study found Skin So Soft is not as good as DEET, but not too bad either (I’m still going to stick with DEET).
