This bug spray actually works - I was shook. I was expecting it to be like OFF but boy was I wrong. I don't have to worry about mosquito bites for hours. It doesn't smell like anything (to me) nor does it leave you with that sticky residue. I'll be using only this spray for now on.
A must buy for the summer!!

I genuinely just bought this because target had it on sale but holy cow! its very effective. I sprayed it on, ribbed it in a bit, and the bugs left me alone. The only place I got bit was where I jumped away because the spray is so cold lol make sure to reapply in three hours or so

We were attending an outdoor event in a wooded area where everyone was covered in ticks and mosquito bites. I bought STEM for the next day's activities for my children and I. I lightly sprayed it on exposed skin, clothes, and shoes. We had NO ticks on us or mosquito bites the entire day! I love that it is not sticky or greasy at all and no odor on your skin or clothes, both of which I can't stand of other sprays. You cannot tell that you have it on.
No bites today!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. My husband and I tried this product while we were working outdoors in the evening, when he usually gets several mosquito bites. This time, he only received one bite on his shoulder, where he had not sprayed the product because his shoulder was covered by a shirt. The spray is not greasy or sticky, but it does have a strong scent that we weren't too fond of. Overall, we liked this product and look forward to more bite-free evenings this year!
Good product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This product works really well. Doesn't feel sticky or gross on your skin when you apply it. It doesn't have any odor so it doesn't smell like anything. This is a one stop shop spray for both mosquito and tick. Love that it's made in Germany. I didn't have bugs bother me while I was outside! Great protection for the coming summer months.
Smells good

Doesn't leave any grease on your skin and last for up to eight hours. It works great and has a great smells good. It does not leave your skin all sticky like other products. Keeps all the critters away from you. I would give this a try especially if you're in a wooded area.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I like that this bug spray is actually non-greasy as advertised. The only fragrance is the typical bug spray smell but it isn't strong. I haven't had it on for a full eight hours but so far it hasn't given my sensitive skin any issues.
Non greasy and Fragrance free

Overall, I like it so far and feel that it's safer for me and my family.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. All in all, it's a decent bug spray. It's light on the skin, and isn't as heavy as other brands. It works well enough and kept bugs away. I'd buy this again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] (I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review.) I tend to spend more time outdoors as it warms up, and apparently I'm very sweet because mosquitoes absolutely love me. Every summer, I end up with polka dots from mosquito bites. I'm excited to try STEM's Mosquito + Tick Repellent and avoid that happening this year!
No smell!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The repellent doesn't have that bug spray smell which i really like. Usually when you spray the bug spray, the smell is always there which gives me a headache but this one didn't. I definitely recommend to the people who hates the smell and get headache!
Doesn't smell or feel like bug spray!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I love this STEM mosquito and tick repellent! It is fragrance free, so it doesn't have that "I smell like bug spray smell." It is also non-greasy, so it doesn't have that, "I can feel the bug spray on my skin hours after I applied it" feel. It's a great product, completely recommend.
Great add on for Golfing
