Avon Skin-So-Soft Bug Guard Plus Disappearing Color SPF 30 Review Summary

Our busy reviewers love to multi task and Avon Skin-So-Soft Bug Guard Plus Disappearing Color SPF 30 is a great multi tasking product, they say. This sunscreen goes on blue so you can see exactly where it was applied. It then disappears into the skin to stave off the sun's harsh burning rays. But there's more! Avon Skin-So-Soft Bug Guard Plus Disappearing Color SPF 30 has an insect repellent in it to assure your days and nights at the beach are as comfortable as possible. Moms love this product for their kids who don't like to stand still for one, let alone two, product applications and they like the blue hue so they don't miss any spots on their little ones. This one's a winner, say our reviewers! One caveat: People with sensitive skin may want to use another product on their faces. Like Avon products?

I have no mosquitoes in my diningroom.  But I'm going to sample the stuff my hubby swears by -- Avon Skin-So-Soft Bug Guard Plus.  Summer in the local mountains means a gazillion bugs, and TunefulPal knows his stuff about prevention.

First, I'll try Cool 'n Fabulous with disappearing color.  The...

This is great for keeping the bugs off but when you get hot and sweat it burns your face. It did this to my children, husband and my self. I wouldn't use it on the face or if you have sentaive
skin. After sweating it also iritated legs when freshly shaved.

Avon Skin-So-Soft Bug Guard Plus

Insect repellent and SPF 30 sunscreen

www.avon.com


With the splendor of summer we found that our favorite dog-walking path was also being enjoyed by swarms of gnats.  What had been an enjoyable daily adventure of walking, talking and laughing was now characterized by whining, swatting and rushing. 

I really don’t like spraying my kids with insect repellent for obvious reasons, so I tried Avon Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus which is an lotion with insect repellent and SPF 30 sunscreen.

You can see where you apply this suncscreen.

The thing I love best about this particular sunscreen is that you can see exactly where you are applying it.  When you apply the sunscreen, it's blue.  It stays blue for awhile, so you can see exactly where you've missed some spots.  It smells a lot like watermelon too, so it has a pleasant scent.  I don't recomment putting this on faces though, because it seems to stay blue on the face.  Don't know why that is.

Also, this sunscreen has a bug guard in it, so it's nice if you're picnicing or camping.  I still use a regular bug repellent in addition to the sunscreen, but I still think it helps. ...

I have to say that I LOVE this stuff!!  AVON Skin So Soft Bug Guard is deet free, so it's great for kids. It also has sunscreen in it!!  I have been using this product for years in the aerosol and now that I have young children I have switched over to the lotion. It isn't greasy like other brands tend to be, and it is fun for my kids because the blue disappears. It also helps to see where the lotion has been applied so you don't miss a spot.

It has a light scent, not overpowering at all.  It is also very water resistant. It is effective against many bugs including: ticks that carry lyme disease,...

This year my toddler started having terrible reactions to bug bites. We are actually waiting for allergy testing. I looked high and low for a mosquito repellant that I wouldn't be afraid to use on her that would also be effective. I read about the Avon SSS Bug Guard online and gave it a shot. I was pleasantly surprised by the light scent and how well this product truly does work. Now, one thing that I did not like is that it doesn't play nice with my nail polish. It makes my nail polish tacky feeling after I apply it to my child and it is a little hard to wash it all off if you don't plan on using... read full review »

This sunscreen is perfect! It keeps you from burning and it moisurizes.  The bug guard works most of the evening but it is necessary to re-apply at least once after an afternoon of swiming. My children love it obviously because of the 'magic' color change disappearing color.  Which is extremely helpfull when making sure it is rubbed in properly otherwise there is too much margin for error and burns.

I have used this product on my kids and myself. I think that it is one of the best sunscreen with bug guard. We can play outside in our yard and not worry about any bugs!!:) It is also great for days that we walk in the woods. The bugs are so bad around the area and I am always looking for sunscreen with the bug protection and this is the one that has worked the best for me. I suggest anyone try this product.

Effectively repels mosquitoes, deer ticks, black flies, sand flies, gnats, no-seeums and biting midges.Not Greezy like most sun screens and has a grat smell not like most bug guards. You get the best of both with this product. And it's affordable.

 More for sun for dawn & dusk.

This sunscreen is great and the bug guard in it works well also. You do not have to reapply as often as some of the other brands I have used in the past!  I ordered a ton from my Avon lady so I would have to all around my house!  With it being a color, you can easily tell if you missed any spots!

This is the best sunscreen-insect repellant combination I have found! It works so well that I buy 6 tubes at the beginning of every summer. My kids think it's great to watch the color fade away so threy don't fight me when it's time to put it on. I highly recomend Avon SSS Bug Guard Plus SPF30!!!

The smell of this product was different.  Not different in a bad way just different.  It was very messy and you had to rub it in very well.  I worked well protecting you from the sun and bugs.  Which is a big deal for me.
