Organic Beauty View

There is only one thing on this planet that I will readily kill without thinking twice, and that’s a mosquito. I don’t know if I have raging mosquito pheromones happening but I’m like a beacon of lip smacking goodness, which in summer, drives me insane. It’s a constant mission to find something to kill the insects effectively while not killing myself by using a toxic product like Deet. Enter incognito (which is exactly what I hope to become to mosquitoes by applying this stuff)! Touted as an eco-friendly, anti-insect camouflage, the fresh, pleasant smelling incognito products use a blend of 100% natural ingredients with organically certified citronella, found on the island of Java & reported to be more effective than any other for repelling mozzies. How it works? Just as humans are attracted to each other’s pheromones, insects are attracted to their hosts by kairomones, one of which is carbon dioxide. The more you emit, the more attractive you are. incognito works by masking these kairomones, thus cloaking or camouflaging and protecting us like an invisibility shield. Rigorously tested by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (and celebs like Ewan McGregor shooting in tropical locales), incognito works on all insects, not just mosquitoes. The line includes a 100ml camouflage spray, citronella incense sticks, after-sun moisturiser, 3-in-1 shampoo & conditioner, as well as soaps: jasmine rice, ginger and citronella; lemongrass and citronella; and luxury loofah soap – which if you’re travelling, you can even recycle as a gentle pan scourer when all the soap is gone. All soap packaging is made from biodegradeable Saa paper, made from sustainable mulberry bark harvested in fair trade conditions by impoverished Thai women. Consider me armed & dangerous this summer!
