Not safe! Gave me a severe allergic reaction
Bought this product a while back trusting the high reviews. Did not get the chance to use until this last week while on vacation in Hawaii. Lathered all over my arms and legs before we went out on our first day. First of all the spray actually squirts. Had to squirt on my hand to spread on my arms and legs. A couple hours later I broke out with the worst hives on the palms of my hands which spread throughout the rest of my hands/fingers, arms, legs, thighs, and abdomen. The hives were so itchy and eventually began to blister. Consulted a doctor and was diagnosed with Dyshidrosis Eczema which is a form of an allergic reaction to a chemical. The rash will last 2-4 weeks with the steroid creams they gave me that I had to pay out of pocket for since I’m not from Hawaii. Not to mention how miserable I was the remainder of our trip. Read the fine print people! If you have sensitive skin this is not for you! They clearly indicate that it can cause allergic reaction in some cases. Unfortunately I was one of them. Also, it didn’t repel the mosquitoes because at the end of that night despite my horrendously itchy rash I had a handful of mosquito bites on my legs as well. So save your money and buy something else!
