Go Ahead and Play! Tiny Buds New Insect Repellent Products Review

Trees and other plants surround our place, making it perfect for Tikoy to explore during his nature walks, riding his bike, and helping his now-turned-plant-tito dad cultivate our little garden. Our only hesitation about staying too long outside is our uninvited guest: mosquitos! Our workaround is having our little boy in outdoor-friendly clothes and a trusty, natural, and safe insect repellent.

Toddler surrounded by plants — Planting time with Tikoy

Tiny Buds has recently introduced their two new items: The Gone Away Lotion and Gone Away Stick Ons! We tried them together with their other bites-related products:

Gone Away Lotion

Tiny Buds Gone Away Natural Citronella Lotion — Gone Away Natural Citronella Lotion

This light and non-sticky insect repellent is made with Citronella, Lemon Eucalyptus, and Virgin Coconut Oil that keeps our little boy’s skin soft and moist while keeping the pesky bugs at bay. Unlike Mark, I’m not very fond of the Citronella smell, and I usually get dizzy from others with a more potent essence. While I’m sure it indeed does the job, I appreciate having the odor toned down and balanced with Lemon Eucalyptus.

Gone Away Stick Ons

Tiny Buds Stick On insect repellent — Each patch can last up to 6 hours!

Most insect repellents are for kids three years and above but Tiny Buds had that covered with their stick-on mosquito patch! This can be used for kids of any age and is a quicker way to protect your kids from bites! All you have to do is to stick them on their clothes! Each can last up to 6 hours.

After Bites Natural Soothing Gel

Soothe the itch and sting from mosquito bites with this non-steroidal, all-natural relief gel. I had a bite myself and tried it. It’s lightly cool and minty, just right for kids.
