I went to Thailand and was terrified of mosquitoes, since my friends said they got eaten up by them. I used this product and I didn’t get bit anywhere, except where I didn’t apply, like my face, ears, and behind my knees and elbows. It worked great wherever it was applied. My friend who used Off spray got bit even if he used the product. The product does leave a slight waxy film on you after application, but it seems that all deet products leave some film and it’s something you have to get used to if you want to protect yourself from mosquito bites. I get welts from mosquito bites and would rather tolerate the waxy feel than the bites.

Camped at a natural spring in Florida, didn’t get bit once after applying it. Florida, even in springtime, is hot and humid, even at night, and the mosquitoes are about the size of a penny with angles like a stealth fighter jet. That, coupled with the gnats and miscellaneous other insects, makes for a very uncomfortable camping trip if you aren’t prepared.
Some people may be weary of putting it near their eyes, but when they say it’s splash and sweat resistant, they mean it. I put it on above my eyebrows and directly below my eyelids, and didn’t get any in my eyes at all, and trust me, while we were out finding firewood at 10pm-2am (yes we’re a little on the adventurous side), I was sweating like nobody’s business. This stuff hung in like a champ.
In comparison, my brother was using Off spray (can’t remember which kind), and had to keep reapplying it almost every hour, and was still getting bit. I offered him mine, but he’s “a man”, and “don’t take no charity from nobody.”
Also, the tube may look a bit small, but you don’t need much of it. Even with a thin coat on, it keeps the bugs away.

While on an extended camping/hiking/fishing trip along Lake Superior, the black flies and mosquitoes were, bloodthirsty. We used this product works and it works well at keeping the bugs at bay, but is not for those with sensitive skin. For the product causes breakouts on face, arms and hands. While, the repellent keeps most bugs at bay, it does not work well on biting flies.

I just returned from the Yucatan and Belize where I spent a lot of time in the jungles. I would apply it before I left my hotel and it would last all day even with the high humidity (lots of sweating). I would look down at my legs and see the multitude of mosquitoes hovering around but not landing (biting). Where I did get stung was on the arches of my feet where I did not apply. Absolutely recommended. But not for those with sensitive skin. I handled it but could feels a very slight warming sensation after applying it.

My wife and I agree. This cream does repel Mosquitoes and it does have staying power.
Also, we did not break out into rashes so allergic reaction was not a problem. It’s a bit pricey in my opinion.
I got some in my eye and that was a pain. Take heed to keep this stuff off your face.
