SmidgeInsect Repellent Cream (75ml)

It works well. Not bitten by the insect at all. It is not greasy and smell is mild ( much better than the smell of usual insect repellent)

The best mosquito repellent ever! Picaridin (also known as icaridin) is SO much nicer to use than DEET. We've traveled extensively in our motorhome, which means we spend a lot of time outside. The little feckers love me and this is my saviour.If it hasn't worked for some reviewers, I respectfully suggest they may not have applied it correctly. You need to spray it onto your hand and rub it in, not just spray it on.It smells divine, and as a bonus it moisturises my skin too. I buy it in bulk now and won't go out anywhere after 5pm without it!

Reliable Midgie Defence – A Must-Have for the Scottish OutdoorsI bought the Smidge Insect Repellent Cream ahead of a recent trip to the Highlands, and I’m so glad I did. With Scotland’s notorious midgie population, I needed something that really worked, and Smidge absolutely delivered. The cream goes on smoothly without feeling greasy, and the scent is surprisingly pleasant – not overpowering or chemical-heavy like some other repellents.What really impressed me was its staying power. I was outdoors for hours, walking through wooded and lochside areas where midges were swarming, and I came away bite-free. It held up well even when I started to sweat or got caught in a drizzle, which makes it ideal for hiking and camping. The fact it also protects against ticks, mosquitoes, and horse flies is a real bonus.It’s safe for the whole family (over 30 months), which gives peace of mind, especially if you're travelling with kids. I now keep a tube in my rucksack during spring and summer. Whether you're out walking, gardening, or just enjoying a summer BBQ, this is a brilliant product for anyone living in or visiting midgie country.

I hate using products containing deet, the smell is awful so I end up being bitten. Having been bitten literally everywhere and itching to blazer I bought Smidge. It's really pleasant to use and for the first time I've had 2 days with no more bites...bliss. I'm a happy gardener again!

Not been bitten whilst wearing this, even when walking in woods or fields. Great product, 100% recommend.

I was very sceptical because every summer and bitten by anything!! this is easy to apply you just shake the bottle. It’s like putting a moisturising cream on after a bath or a shower. It doesn’t sting or smell of the strong, it isn’t sticky and it lasts 7 1/2 to 8 hours for the first time in years. I’m not facing the summer with bites all over. I highly recommend this and I have put it on a subscription..

Bought for a trip to Scotland as it was recommended to us. Presume it was good stuff as we didn’t get bitten!

Barely any fragrance, applies easily and didn't cause any irritation.Unfortunately it also didn't do an awful lot for 70% of users.I ended up resorting to this in conjunction with jungle, peppermint oil and the headnet and received no bites. Yay.Others used this liberally and received lots of bites, funnily enough moreso in the places this was applied!Spoke to locals in notorious blackspots for midges who sell this product and they didn't rate its effectiveness.I guess it works.. ish for some and not at all for others. It is much nicer to use than many alternatives though.
