Hi Lawrence/ maeve,
Yes it is the turquoisey bottle. Have the Avon catalogue in front of me at the moment. It calls it Avon Skin So Soft Dry Oil Body Spray, the turquoisey/ greeny blue one is soft/fresh. Get in quick as as maeve says it's just £1.75 per bottle at present online. You need to go into the sale section on the Avon site.
Hope this helps.

Hi maeve,
Yes you did. Just remember when you put it on, leave it to soak into your skin for a little while, otherwise it can stain your clothes. Not a major problem though as I have found that it washes out OK anyway.

Please try Mosquito milk from chemist direct, I used to get bitten really badly no matter what I used but since I have used this for the last 2 years I have not had one bite, I used to have to go to the doctors when I got home because the bites would be the size of golf balls. I got back Sunday from 2 weeks in Zante and got the whole family using it, it is brilliant. It's about £6 a bottle but that bottle will last 2 years, it is a roll on and you just put a stripe up the front and back of your legs and the same with arms. It even has a pleasant smell, I can't praise it enough but you can only get it on the internet.

Spooky! I've just ordered the Mosqito Milk from Chemist Direct. A few weeks ago on holiday I used Don't Bite Me patches, jungle formula lotion and plug ins. Admitedly I only got bitten once but I swell up the size of an orange (not me the size of an orange, the bite!) - but after that I dont' get bitten at all - perhaps my reaction puts them off!!

As has often been said, I still think it's horses for courses. I have tried garlic capsules, vitamin B1, loads of mozzie sprays, but I find that the cheapest of all, Avon Skin So Soft, works for me. I think that it is just trial and error. We all have different skin, eat different foods, so what works for one person, won't necessarily work for another. I like this product as you are not putting certain chemicals on your skin or imbibing other things of which you don't know what effect they will have on your body.

maeve, yes the mozzies don't like "Bounce" for some reason, plus your clothes smell wonderful when you take them out of the suitcase. Got the idea of Bounce of the forum last year & it seemed to help.

I like this idea too, I'm off to get some Bounce for our cases! Who'd have thought it when they bought it out that it'd have a bonus use!!??
