    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I have used other OFF! products before and this one is fantastic. The scent is not too strong, it's much more pleasant than other sprays I have used in the past. This spray covers well without leaving stickiness or residue behind. I like how quickly it dries when it is applied. I would definitely purchase this again!!

    Honestly my favorite brand. I live down the street from the river so this is a must at my house. Smells better then most, works really good. One bottle can last me 1 summer. And it feels fine on my skin. Doesn't leave you too oily or greasy feeling after it drys.

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Honestly, I have never met a bug repellent that wasn't wet and tacky when putting on. This spray is true to the claims and covers well but doesn't leave me feeling sticky. On top of the pleasant feel, this also has a more palatable scent than many other sprays. This is likely going to be one of my go to options moving forward.

This is great for kids because they can't get it on their hands and smear it everywhere. It has a pleasant smell also. Wish it was a little cheaper but I'll take it and buy when it's on sale! Great product from a great brand.

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This insect repellent requires a bit of force to dispense since it first releases air and then the spray. The repellent feels invisible on my body but it leaves a greasy residue on my hands after rubbing it on. The scent is not too strong after dispensing and it completely disappears after half an hour of wear. I did not experience mosquito bites while wearing this repellent but flies would get close to me.

The spray is dry and doesn't leave a sticky feeling on your skin. The scent is not overpowering, and is much more subdued than others I've tried. I will definitely buy again.

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I've used several products in the off brand, so was really excited to try a new type that I hadn't tried before. The smooth and dry with the powder dry formula feels really nice on the skin and does dry very quickly. I wouldn't say that it feels completely "powder" dry, as all bug sprays have the smallest bit of residue, but it does feel much drier and smoother than many other sprays that I've tried. The scent is very light and sweet, but is not too noticeable if bug spray scent bothers you. I also tried this product while at the creek with my dog on a very, very hot day, and this worked perfect against the mini bugs that were out and about that day, and I did not have any bug bites. Overall highly recommend this product!
