I've heard it keeps the mozzies away so I've ordered some on amazon. How is it used? Do I need to use a lot of it? Spray it everywhere over my whole body or just spray a little to give me the scent they don't like?

Unfortunately I tried the same a while ago and it had the opposite effect, attracted every mozzie around

You need the original with jajoba and citronella in it,spray it on any exposed skin.It really works well for me and everybody I know who's bought it after trying mine.I put it on about an hour before bed so it has time to soak in,it sprays in a really fine mist so put plenty on a lightly rub in

You need the original Avon Skin So Soft as it has citronella and jojoba:
Avon link
I spray my arms, bottom of my legs below my trousers, head and neck, then my hands and give it a good rub in and cover my face with what is on the palms of my hands

watch it around the eyes i'm continually having to wipe my eyes as it appears to run and cause itchy eyes. but apart from that it used to be good for me but this year for some reason its not stopping them bought some Incognito to try.
Maybe i should check the dates on it as Mrs brought loads a couple of years ago

That's all it ever worked on because of the size of the midge compared to a mosquito. Having fished for many years in Scotland and the Lakes, the midge was a constant pain. SSS was always good against the midge (going back to the 90's in my case) - the midge is tiny and cannot cope with the oil on the skin. It effectively suffocates it as the oil can coat the insects body thus stopping the oxygen interchange. They don't breathe through their mouths but through their whole body.
SSS never worked against the mosquito that has long legs and so wades above the oil content that poses such a problem for the midge. I have never used SSS for mozzies cos it never worked.
