    Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus SPF 30

    by 88eagle (3 reviews)
    I have used this product for the last 4-5 years, especially when out in the sun. I gained confidence in the product one year when I was taking a long driving trip to the deep south. Before leaving, I applied the lotion to my arms and portion of my legs that would be exposed to sun while driving. When I reached Alabama, t...he mosquitos were out, but interestingly, only landed on the portion of my legs on which I had NOT applied the lotion! So, I applied some to the rest of my legs, but have confidently used this product ever since. October 28, 2007, 6:59 am

    Great Product

    by pappas3426 (3 reviews)
    I packed this on my last vacation and it worked great at preventing bug bites in the swampy area where we were. My sister preferred to use her own brand of sunscreen and spent the rest of the vacation itching and applying calamine lotion. I also can say that the sun protection worked great, having missed one little spot o...n my back I could definitly see the difference between the protected and unprotected areas of skin.

    Avon Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus SPF 30 Review

    by fashionsense (11 reviews)
    I saw the way this product worked myself in the Carribean. One of my friends applied some while we were sitting around the pool. A couple hours later I noticed a place on her arm where she had missed a spot which was very red whereas the rest of her arm was perfectly fine. On the bug side, I used it in a very mesquito infe...sted area with nary a bite on my person. One of the best all around products on the market. October 12, 2007, 8:43 pm

    A Good All-Around Staple

    by LGiesler (15 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    My husband and I have used this while golfing for years. We keep it in our bags. Not only does it protect, but it keeps bugs off (trees are great, but it gets buggy in the shade)! Not the best smell, and like all sunscreens it goes bad after a season. It goes a long way, so it seems we waste a lot. It's inexpensive, th...ough! December 2, 2007, 5:56 pm

    Great

    I love this stuff, keeps the bugs away and I never get burned (or tanned for that matter but that's good :). Only thing you have to get passed is the smell, it's like a dilluted mix of bug spray and SPF mixed with something else (hard to describe). October 25, 2009, 11:25 am

    Best mosquito repellent around

    by rushedkidsmom (1 review)
    I went to Alaska in the height of mosquito season and while walking through Denali was swarmed by mosquitoes. I was not bitten once! Everyone else in my party had to wear mosquito nets on their heads for protection, but I did not. I would swear by this product. October 6, 2009, 1:27 pm

    Best Sunscreen.......Weird Smell

    by greasergirl21 (75 reviews)
    Top 500 Reviewer
    The Avon lady told me this sunscreen would thoroughly prtect my skin, and boy was she right. I didn't burn, or even get any darker once I started using this. And it was only SPF 30! It smelled weird though. I know that was because of the insect repellent, but the repellent didn't seem to work that well for me. So if they ma...de the sunscreen sans the repellent I'd be fine!

    by Milmom2000 (5 reviews)
    I highly recommend this product to those who hate going outside alot because of bugs but also who have to watch with the sun. It really does work for both! And it doesn't leave you all greasy either. July 31, 2008, 2:33 pm
