About Twinkle Apothecary

Gentle, Everyday Protection 

Enjoy your summer with these pleasant-smelling, skin-loving bug repellent sprays!

There are two options to choose from - version 1.0 is the original Twinkle Apothecary blend with lavender, lemon, lemongrass, and cedar essential oils.

Version 2.0 is a new, more complex blend, which features essential oils of lemon eucalyptus, basil, geranium, patchouli, clove, clary sage, lavender, cinnamon, and tagetes essential oils. 

Which Version to Choose

Version 1.0 may be better for children or more sensitive skin-types, while version 2.0 is more of a "heavy duty" blend of essential oils. Essential oil based repellents work by confusing the mosquitoes' scent receptors, so you may want to try both versions and come up with your own strategy to keep them guessing! 

Please note that while I find that these work quite well for everyday protection in my area, I cannot guarantee that they will work for everyone in all locations. If you are concerned about mosquito-borne illnesses or need more guaranteed protection, I suggest following the CDC guidelines to prevent mosquito bites. 

Instructions 

Shake well to disperse the essential oils and apply liberally to skin and clothing. For best results, reapply often. These can be sprayed on the face, but please avoid the eye and mouth areas. 

Ingredients 

Version 1.0: distilled water, organic witch hazel distillate 86%, organic fractionated coconut oil, essential oils of lavender, lemon, lemongrass, and cedarwood 

Version 2.0: distilled water, organic witch hazel distillate 86%, organic fractionated coconut oil, essential oils of lemon eucalyptus, basil, geranium, patchouli, clove, clary sage, lavender, cinnamon, and tagetes

The best bug spray

I'm so happy to see bug spray back in the store full-time! I used to purchase it from the brick-and-mortar, and it's my favorite go to. It works great for me, and my favorite part is not feeling like I need to take a shower like I do with Off brand bug spray which definitely leaves a clammy residue and chemical stench. This bug spray smells lovely, doesn't leave any clammy residue and keeps bugs away. I use it mainly in the morning before I head out into the garden, and for walks around the neighborhood in the morning or evening. It keeps bugs away and let's me enjoy time outside without dousing myself in smelly chemicals first.
