Clinically proven to be kind to skin while keeping bugs firmly at bay, this Green People after sun is the utterly multi-tasking formula every suitcase needs, protecting the skin from midges, ticks, black flies, leeches and mosquitoes for up to four hours with just one application.
That means you can leave the foul-smelling, chemical-packed sprays at home and enjoy a soothing, fresh-scented treatment every single day without damaging your skin.
Formulated with 85 per cent organic moisture-locking plant extracts and essential oils such as aloe vera and chamomile, this skin-loving cream is perfect if you’ve picked up a bit too much sun by the pool.
The proof of the cream’s effectiveness is in the reviews, where it’s solidified swathes of five-star reviews from people who say they had ‘not a single bite’, noting it’s ‘great for sun burned skin’
Plus, not only is it COSMOS Certified and deeply-moisturising, but it uses shea butter, jojoba and rosehip as a base.
But how does it make bug bites a thing of the past without DEET, you ask?
This is all down to the mozzie-repelling active Citrepel®75. Derived from Java Citronella, this alternative to DEET is a highly effective, containing the active PMD, which is a natural insect repellent with a good safety profile.
And to finish it all off? The lotion has been infused with a delicate yet fresh summer scent of lemon eucalyptus and peppermint, ensuring harsh chemical scents never come on holiday with you again.

And truly, the proof of this Green People Moisturising After Sun’s effectiveness is in the feedback, where it’s solidified swathes of five-star reviews from people who say they had ‘not a single bite’, also noting it’s ‘great for sun or wind burned skin’.
‘This product was lovely. Moisturised my skin whilst keeping me free from mozzy bites on a recent 2 week holiday,' another five-star reviewer wrote. ‘My husband got a few bites and I didn’t get any. Put this on after a shower every evening.’
A second added: ‘Took it on holiday with us and applied in the evening whilst out for dinner and not a single bite. Less is more so one tube lasted a long time.’
‘Effective insect repellent but equally effective moisturiser too.’ Wrote a third. ‘Smells natural rather than chemical which is great too.’
Another user agreed, writing: ‘Great product, light, non-greasy and very pleasant scent. Took three tubes to a very hot and sunny south Provence, and certainly felt the benefit. Will use again. Magnifique.’
