Product details

Our Ain’t Buggin’ Me Bug Oil is best used before you head outdoors, giving the nourishing oils and bug-repelling essential oils time to absorb into your skin.

Apply it to exposed areas like arms, legs, ankles, neck, and feet before gardening, hiking, camping, sitting by the fire, going to the lake, or spending time outside.

The beauty of the oil-based spray is how it works with your skin. As your body naturally warms up, the essential oils begin to diffuse through the oil on your skin, helping create a longer-lasting layer of natural bug protection.

For best results, apply before going outside rather than waiting until you’re already hot and sweaty. This allows the oil to absorb better and keeps you from trying to apply it over damp or sweaty skin.

The Bug Oil is especially helpful for longer outdoor time when you want the essential oils to stay close to your body.

Best for:

Gardening
Camping
Hiking
Evening walks
Porch sitting
Bonfires
Outdoor dinners
Lake days
Exposed arms, legs, ankles, and feet
Longer-lasting skin coverage

How to use:

Shake well before each use. Apply to exposed skin before going outdoors. Rub in gently and allow the oil to absorb. Reapply as needed, especially after swimming, sweating heavily, or being outside for an extended period of time.

Want the full Ain’t Buggin’ Me routine?

Our Bug Oil works beautifully on its own, but it’s even better as part of the full Ain’t Buggin’ Me routine.

Ain’t Buggin’ Me Soap is where the bug protection begins. Use it in the shower before heading outside so your skin starts with the essential oils bugs don’t love.

Ain’t Buggin’ Me Water-Based Spray is the lighter, non-oily option that can be sprayed on your body, hair, clothes, hats, socks, shoes, and outdoor gear. It’s great for camping, sweaty hikes, kids playing outside, and quick reapplications throughout the day.

Use the soap first, the oil on exposed skin before going out, and the water-based spray for easy touch-ups or spraying the things you take outside with you.

A note from Rachel

“I started asking questions
before it was popular.”

In 1998, I started looking closely at what was being used in everyday body-care products. At the time, almost nobody around me was talking about it.

Since 1999, that conviction has guided Blue Moon Elise. Traditionally crafted body care, made by people who care about every ingredient that goes into it.

This is the best bug spray ever! Being natural is huge plus!
I live in the south where it seems as though mosquito season is earlier every year.
I grew up fishing in the black water swamps in South Carolina’s Lowcountry. Deep Woods Off was what we used in the 60’s-70’s to keep from being carried off by mosquitos and bitten by deer flies. Deep Woods Off worked well but had a very distinct smell and probably chemicals that we’re not the best for our health or the environment.
Blue Moon Elise’s Bug Oil has a very, very light, pleasant fragrance - not at all what one would associate with bug/mosquito spray.
I prefer the oil base. It's very light and not greasy.

I have used this product for over 20 years. It is a must have for me! So I always have a bottle close by. I keep one in my car, my beach bag, lake bag, cooler, and in my luggage.
