Everyone has heard of using "Skin So Soft" for avoiding mosquitoes. The girls in our family love to use it when they are spending a long summer night outdoors. I'm not sure if the product truly fends off mosquito bites, but the girls swear it does. I'm not too excited about the product as a lotion, though. In my opinion, the lotion is far too oily, gliding easily over the skin but seeming to be too much. That said, we always buy from our Avon Lady just to please the little girls in the family.

Way more tha just a skin oil. Here are more ways to use AVON SSS Oil!
It can be used daily to remove makeup and mascara.
Helps to relieve dry, itchy skin.
Cleans of adhesive marks from band-aids and medical tape.
Cleans pen ink, markers and some paint off of your skin.
Great for getting a tan. Caution: There is no SPF in AVON SSS.
Soothes light sunburns.
Great for mechanics to use while washing their hands. It cuts grease along with moisturizing.
Heals cracked skin with in 2-3 days.
Put 2 capfuls in liquid soap and us it as a shaving crPme. It will help prevent razor burn.
Pour 2 capfuls in to your foot soaker to moisturize them while you relax.
Removes Chewing gum from hair and skin.
Helps to retain your skins elasticity. Great for preventing stretch marks!
Use cotton ball dipped in AVON SSS to keep ants out. Rub the cotton ball around window seals and doors.
KILLS LICE Safely! Fully saturate hair with AVON SSS. Let it set for 15 minutes! Wash thoroughly! You may want to wash the hair 2-3 times to get the oily look out. AJAX dish detergent works great with just one wash to get the oil out!
In many cases, AVON SSS has helped to soothe psoriasis.
Keep spiders out by wiping all wood framed doors and windows with AVON SSS.
Removes glue and other adhesives from glass, metals and most plastics.
Remove soap scum from shower doors and shower curtains, along with bathroom fixtures by using SSS as you would your other cleaners.
Great for using on pipe joints that will not slip together.
Cleans ink off most vinyl and painted surfaces.
Cleans most heavy oil and grease from non-porous surfaces.
Love it.. December 26, 2007, 4:15 pm

i have dry skin all year long. and it only gets worse in winter. i have tried everything!!! but came right back to what my grammy always swore by! i prefer the soft and sensual scent for myself. but i buy original for my hubby and kids. i keep it in spray bottles for easy use everyday after showers and use it in a bath every few weeks or so to soak. i never used baby oil on my kids. just kept spritzer bottle close and greased'em down after bath time. original also worked great to keep pesky insects at bay when they were little and i wouldnt use harsh stuff on them. also great for pets with dry skin. my dog gets a bath and then i rub her down with original scent ( i put a capful in her rinse water) and helps her dry skin , keeps away fleas, and she smells pretty good too....lol.

I have purchased this stuff for many years and glad to see its constantly changing for the better over the years, not only does it make your skin silky smooth after bathing it also acts as one of the best bug repellents i've ever used, it is great for sensitive skin as well..I usually get the spray if i can get it and spray it on before I even get out of the shower,right before drying,it makes it go into your skin better and makes the towel glide across your body when u dry.

I have been using this product for over 20 years and it just gets better. It's great for the summer it keeps the insects away, your body is soft and smooth and smells great. I can not say enough about this product. Avon please do not cancel or remove this product off your shelves. My body loves you for making this a great product for winter and summer my whole family thanks you. I give it as part one in my gift giving.
Thanks,

Great for your skin and keeps the bugs away when you're outdoors. It also works to keep the bugs out of your house! Put it on the wood trim around your house and it will keep the creepy crawleys away (tip from a construction worker after building a house and having trouble with spiders). You can also use it to get the "goo" off of stuff after removing a sticker (like a price tag). May 6, 2008, 7:19 am

I use this in the bath of course for soft, hydration. I also will use this in the shower after washing I use it on my skin without rinsing too much and then just dab with the towel where I have applied. Also our whole family uses it camping to keep the bugs away. And I almost forgot, the dogs bath, use it at the end, massage in, and they love you for it when the bugs come around them......they don't bite! April 22, 2008, 10:38 am

One of the most reknown products by Avon;it has endured for many years. It does a multitude of things from softening your skin,prtecting you from 'skeeters,cleaning bathroom tile,keeping mechanics' hands clean,etc.,etc. It's a natural product and rarely,if ever,causes a reaction. To prevent slipping when exiting the bathtub,always use a rubber mat. Then wipes out the tub with the residue. Clean and sparkling.No one has ever made a product that rivals this. I love it!

This product has so many uses - great skin moisturizer (and I love to soak in the tub!), keeps the mosquitoes away, and even was the only answer to actually work 12 years ago when my daughter's 1st grade class kept passing head lice around - she had kind of greasy hair for a few days, but she smelled great and didn't itch. I recommend it to anyone I know with kids in preschool or elementary! December 11, 2007, 12:34 pm
