Top Tips for Summer Fun with lifestings!Updated 2 months ago
We want to make sure you will have a fun summer outside. For best results, here are our top tips for success with lifestings:
- Shake the bottle before applying it.
- If using the spray version, be sure to rub the product on your skin after misting. This ensures the best coverage on exposed areas. (Lotion has to go everywhere, too.)
- Consider putting lifestings on before dressing since bugs will bite through your clothes. Unlike DEET, lifestings is safe to apply under your garments. (It also won’t stain your clothes.)
- You can also apply it on your face and hands, unlike DEET. You can even spritz the spray into your hair. (Brides love it on top of their hair and makeup!)
- Lifestings cannot compete with bug-attracting heavy scents, perfumes, or fragrances such as the ones in perfumes, hair care products or scented laundry detergents. Take a pass on these products and let lifestings do its thing.
- Lifestings lasts for several hours, depending on your physical activity levels and how much you sweat. Unlike Deep Woods chemical products, you can safely re-apply lifestings as needed. If I go to a garden party, I put it on once. If I’m heading out for hours of gardening, I put the lotion formula on first for full body coverage, but may reapply with the spray as I work and sweat in our swampy backyard. Use your best judgment on how much and often to re-apply.
