Tropical Traditions ~ Organic Insect Repellent and Moisturizer {giveaway}

Last summer was one of the wettest summers I can ever remember. With wet weather comes an abundance of pesky mosquitoes. Coupled with a wet summer and then a winter which had above average temperatures and little snow fall, we are already feeling the effects...and mosquitoes are plentiful this year.

Not just bothersome to us when we are trying to enjoy our backyards and parks, they are dangerous. Over the last few years there have been public health campaigns to raise awareness of the dangers of mosquito bites. Each year there seems to be more and more cases of West Nile and it is scary to me as a mom of kids which love to run and play outside. And, I don't want to keep them inside just to avoid being bitten...our summers are short.

But, on the other hand I don't want to lathering on dangerous insect repellents that would be leaching into their bodies. I was thrilled to find that Tropical Traditions carries an Organic Insect Repellent and Moisturizer.

Tropical Traditions all natural insect repellent is made from only the finest ingredients available, and is therefore completely safe for children and for application to the entire body including the face. They use no harmful chemicals or artificial fragrances.

The base, as with all their skin care products is their very own Organic Virgin Coconut Oil. Natural coconut oil has been used to apply to the skin and ward off insects traditionally in tropical climates for hundreds of years. In addition, they have added pure organic essential oils know to repel insects, including citronella, lemongrass, peppermint, tansy and catnip.

This year, I am armed with Tropical Traditions Organic Insect Repellent, and I am saying bring on those mosquitoes and other nasty biting bugs. For the first time I will not be cringing when I slather repellent on my children and feel confident that they are protected against those insects. My kids will be taking Organic Insect Repellent with them as they head off to their week at summer camp. And, we when we head north to our cottage...I will put on the repellent first thing in the morning, as there is always bugs waiting to take a bite.

Thank you to Tropical Traditions for sending me a bottle for my family to try and I am so grateful. Finally my mind is at ease...I am confident that the kids have protection against insects, and it is done safely. Bring on the outside fun!

Don't forget that Tropical Traditions carries an amazing line of coconut products and you can also find great coconut recipes.
