What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this mosquito and tick repellent for its non-greasy, fragrance-free formula that feels light and fast-drying on skin. Reviewers consistently report strong protection lasting up to eight hours, even in high-exposure environments, with many noting the picaridin active ingredient is equally effective as DEET but gentler. The even spray mist applies easily and works well for sensitive skin without irritation. Most customers express strong intent to repurchase and recommend it to others. A very small number mention minor issues like faint odor or occasional staining, but these are outliers in overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Easy to apply and has a light scent to it even though the product claims its fragrance free. It leaves a sticky residue. Overall it's an okay product.

My new go-to! Works so great!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. It's so hard to find an effective solution for pesky mosquitos and even more dangerous, ticks. I love that this spray is easy to use, is mild and unscented and most importantly WORKS. I used after a heavy rainstorm out in the garden and it kept me from getting the usual mosquito bites!

NICE!!!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] *I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review.* I really like the way this feels on your skin! It is very lightweight and you cannot feel it after you spray it on your skin. There really is no fragrance. I like that it doesn't contain deet like some of the other brands. I cannot speak on if it works well to repel mosquitoes, as even though I sprayed it on and was outside for a couple of hours, the mosquitoes are not bad yet...

Must have for your outdoor adventures
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Stem for your skin mosquito and tick repellant is a must have product for your outdoor adventures. It uses picaridin a plant based extract that inhibits and twirls mosquitos and ticks. Most importantly it is safe for your skin clothes that are synthetic and plastics like outdoor gear. I saw another type of repellant ruin a new pair of black hiking pants a friend sprayed it on th...

Seems to work great & a pleasant smell
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I'm glad I got to try this product. I tried it when picking up my kids from school and letting them play on the playground with lots of bugs. I was not bothered by any of the bugs so that was good. It says it's fragrance free, but it does have a slight smell to it, but I found it pleasant. It didn't feel greasy. I would consider buying this product again since it's not only for ...

Less Harsh but Effective bug defense
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This is a great repellent alternative made with safe natural ingredients. I found other regular pest control brands to be harsh on my skin and irritate it very badly but this is a product I can use without fear. It doesn't sting and has an active ingredient I can pronounce. It is slightly pricier and I wish it listed all the other non-important ingredients. It is a pretty big bo...

I love that it's a nontoxic repellent
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Now that I have a baby, I am all for low toxic products in my home. I love that it is non-irritating to skin. Has relatively no smell if any it kind of smells like a little bit of alcohol, but it's not overbearing like other repellent products, I've used in the past. When it dries it alsohas a very light scent. I look forward to using this product all throughout the summer.

I would buy this product again
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The tick issue has been in my house and it bothers the dogs, cats, and kids and recently adults. I used this product on me and my dogs. It seems to keep away the whatever fleas and tick from us because we are less feeling itchy. At first I thought it's little pricey $10+, cause feel it's kinda light weight when holding it on hand. But it worth with the results.

Such a great repellant
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Ever since I have started using Stems product I have had significantly less bugs apart of my life. When I went to get some bug spray I was excited to try the new Stem spray. So far it has worked great for my night by the fire. I didn't try it for the whole 8 hours it says it last but it worked while I was enjoying my bug free night

Great non chemical option
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This is a great alternative to the petrochemical based bug repellent. I liked the overall feel as I applied to skin. It was not the sticky greasy feel from other products. For the time that i was outside, I did not have any issue with mosquitos. I will be getting more of this product because we are only on the beginning of the mosquito season.

Works great
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The repellent was surprisingly effective especially since it uses natural ingredients. I loved that it had no DEET. DEET has a very strong chemical smell and an oily, greasy feeling. STEM, on the other hand, has a light fresh smell and no oily texture. I love that it's safe for use on kids and pets. My dogs will love this during the summer.

It's lightweight, easy to carry, and incredibly convenient to use. What's even better is that its effects last for eight hours, so I no longer have to worry about mosquito nuisance after application. It's fragrance-free and non-greasy, ensuring I feel comfortable throughout the day. I'll definitely be recommending it to my friends.

Awesome product!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The STEM Mosquito and Tick Repellent dispensed in a fine mist and was easy to spray. I love that it is fragrance free and not greasy. Once it's on, you don't even notice it. Also, it will not damage your clothing or other belongings. This is a must have for those that spend a lot of time outdoors

Great Bug Repellent
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I purchased the STEM For Your Skin Mosquito + Tick Repellent Aerosol. This did not have a typical bug repellent sent to it, which was nice. I typically need a product with a high percentage of date. Hoping this can take the place. It also went on and is not a greasy feeling on my skin.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Stem Mosquito + Tick Repellent is my new repellent of choice. I love that it is fragrance-free and doesn't have the sticky greasy feel that so many other repellents have. The added protection against ticks makes this a great and safe option for the whole family when camping or doing other outdoor activities.

Repel the Pest
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I very pleased with the results of this product. My child spent hours outside. I sprayed this product on him and we did not have any mosquitoes surrounding us. Also, my son has very sensitive skin but the STEM spray did not affect his skin at all. Great product!

A Fragrance-Free Bug Spray That Actually Works!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. STEM's For Your Skin Mosquito + Tick Repellent Aerosol sprays on easily and isn't greasy like some other sprays. Also, because it's fragrance free, there isn't a harsh chemical smell. And, above all, it actually works at keeping my kids from being bitten my mosquitoes and ticks!

Really no smell!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Wow, this repellent really doesn't have smell. It's clear color and not greasy at all. I don't know how efficient it works because we don't have mosquitoes yet. If it really works like it says, I will definitely keep using it.
