Useful Pointers On Mosquito Moisturizer Lotion

By Lisa Price


Insects can not only be a nuisance but also cause fatal diseases. For instance, mosquitoes can cause diseases such as malaria. Malaria is fatal to children and therefore should be prevented at all costs. One method of preventing such diseases is by using mosquito moisturizer lotion. There are very many different brands available in the market hence you can easily buy one. This article will provide you with information on how to buy and effectively use the lotions.

A good repellent should not only safeguard you from insect bites but also not cause skin irritation. It should have just enough amount of active ingredients. Having too much of it has side effects such as skin rash or nausea. Ensure that you do not use the product more than needed.

How the product smells is of importance. Certain lotions have a bad smell which may make it difficult in the application when compared with others. Those with a poisonous smell may trigger allergic reactions and also cause coughs. Those with a pine, menthol, citrus and other floral smells are a good option. Applying such a type of repellent will allow you to sleep without any discomfort.

Before you apply the repellent, it is advisable to start by applying sunscreen. If you will spend most of your time under the sun, ensure you apply sunscreen to protect you from the harsh rays of the sun. You do not need to reapply the product if you will reapply more sunscreen. Ensure that you do not choose lotions that mix both the repellent and sunscreen.

You need to smear the repellent uniformly, realizing a thin film as opposed to too much of it. As the bugs can be severe, make sure you do not leave any unexposed part uncovered with the product. The bugs will always search for even the tiniest part of skin not covered. Read through the instructions provided to understand and use it well for it to work. Ensure that you do not breathe in the smell for longer.

When you are using the product, take care of the sensitive parts of your body like your eyes and nostrils. Start applying it on the face, followed by the neck and outside your ears. Include your head if you do not have hair. Be very careful and avoid application on cuts and wounds as the lotions may worsen the situation. Wash your hands with water and soap when you are done with the application process.

Insects are attracted to certain parts of the body like knees, ankles, and feet. As your exposed ankles may be their primary target, avoid concentrating only on your upper body and ensure you apply the product on those areas. Remember to be extra careful with children. The center for disease control recommends that the repellent should not be applied to children below two months. For older children, avoid applying it on their hands as they tend to eat fingers and stick them in the eyes.

Finally, reapply only when it is necessary. The lotions provide protection against bites for a number of hours. If you feel that the insects have started biting again, then it is time to reapply. Keep in mind that the product can be washed off by water. If you go swimming, make sure you take the necessary precautions.
