FAQ
FAQ
1. Why do I have to re- apply every 45 mins?
Our mosquito repellent is DEET free and uses only citronella essential oil to repel mosquitos. The scent of the citronella wears off and so we recommend re-applying every 45 mins.
2. Is it safe for children?
Our mosquito repellent is safe for children aged 3 years and above. Under 3 years of age we recommend using fabric patches to repel mosquitoes
3. why do you package in glass and not plastic?
At Kuva, we have made a commitment to the planet to try and be as eco-friendly as possible and reduce plastic in our packaging. Skincare is a major plastic polluter and we are trying to change that.
4. why is your mosquito repellent more expensive?
we package in glass, which is on average 5 x more expensive than plastic. The heavy weight also costs more to ship. We use premium, natural ingredients that are safe for you and the planet too and this adds to the cost of the product.

Chanced on this insect repellent last year and thought I'd give it a go....
Pleasantly surprised by the how effective it was and how un-sticky it is. The pleasant scent and soothing aloe are a plus, too.
Don't love the new plastic pump - part of the reason I originally bought it was the plastic free factor.
Hello NSM,
Thank you so much for your review, yes we specially formulated our mosquito repellent to not be sticky and absorb easily.
With regards to the plastic pump, we always had one. If you had purchased from Ethico we supply them the bottles without the pump and they put a metal cap on instead. We're doing our best to avoid plastic, but as a small company we have very few options available to us, I hope you understand.
I’ve tried natural repellents before that were greasy or didn’t work but this one is amazing. Lightweight, smells great, and works like a charm.
Thank you Siya for your great review :)
best,

Took this with me on a weekend trek so glad I did. No bites, and the compact tube made it easy to carry around.
Thank you Devika!
So happy you enjoy the mosquito repellent
best,
Ayesha
I have sensitive skin, and this didn’t cause any reaction. Kept the bugs off while also making my skin feel soft. Win-win
