EcoSmart Insect Repellent Pump Spray

-

It promised to dry quickly and without oiliness, and it did that. Main ingredient­s: Geraniol, oil of rosemary, cinnamon, lemongrass and wintergree­n Price and store: $4.98, H-E-B.

Scent: It’s supposed to have a “fresh natural scent.” I thought of it as rubbing alcohol mixed with licorice.

Feel: Great feel. It’s like you didn’t spray anything there, except for the lingering scent.

Fruit test: The fruit remained undisturbe­d.

Body test: I saw bugs come up to me, but they didn’t bite.

Results: This one works and was one of the more affordable natural lines, but I don’t know that I could handle the scent.
