Wow, summer is here and I’m so grateful for the lovely
weather, but I can do without the mosquitoes. Yes, I love animals and truly try
to respect all Gods wonderful creations, even the little annoying ones. You see
they believe it’s their job to place a damper on our fun in the sun. To ruin
our hanging out, interfere with us enjoying a nice breeze or our laying near
the water just as the sun decides to set. For these little creatures, Tis the
season to bite, they come out in full force to disturb us humans who they
believe are having just too much fun; they’re determine to put a stop to the
summer madness. So they bite away, leaving our skin covered with their marks,
watching us frantically scratching desperately with little relief. I can here
their sinister little laughs (this is my story and I say mosquitoes laugh at
us, OK). They actually encourage their other little annoying friends to join in on
their version of summer fun. Fleas and other itch-inducing insects hear the
call and they too come out in full force to cause trouble. I’ve always been a
magnet for mosquitoes and other bite-happy bugs, and my skin is super sensitive
to bug bites.
Once, when I was living in my college dorm, my roommate and I discovered that one of our perimeter walls was host to a pretty extraordinary number of mosquitoes that decided to make the presence known at an ungodly hour in the morning. We were totally ambushed and so we spent the weekend itching, scratching and totally grossed out. It was our custom to wear as little clothing as possible and our excuse for shamelessly flaunting our bodies was due to the extremely hot weather but we both knew we had other motives for showing skin. Well, the truth be told, the male dorms were not far away and we had our eyes on a few good looking guys (the trials and tribulations of young women, right….). That weekend was ruined, our skin was a mess and we decided not to play baseball that weekend, later I discovered the guy of my dreams found the girl of his during that game. I declared war on mosquitoes that summer; they had ruined my life (a 19 year old girl’s point of view).

So what does all this have to do with Lovely Lady
Products? The owner is smarter now and thankful that those little mosquitoes
ruined her chances with the Jock, now she’s happily married to a handsome geek
who also has a love for nature and so we’ve come up with a solution to keep the
little critters from ruining summer without the need to kill them or ruin our
own health by using creepy commercial bug repellents that are full of nasty
chemicals like DEET, this stuff is totally off limits when it comes to my skin.
Call me crazy, but since I try my utmost to keep pesticides off my veggies and
out of my diet, I’m not about to go rubbing pesticides on my skin and neither
should you.
Here’s our solution on how to stop worrying about bugs this summer: Everlasting-Argan Solid Lotion Moisturizer – Lemongrass (bugs aren’t too crazy over lavender either, so that solid lotion could work too).
Our deeply nourishing Lemongrass Solid Lotion works well
for keeping mosquitoes away. Lemongrass, native to Asia, has long been used in
natural insect repellents that contain citronella
oil. This ingredient along with helichrysum and argan oil is
wonderful for sensitive skin, dry elbows, rough feet and hands, cracked or
irritated skin. It’s all about the seasons, use in winter for wind damaged
skin, in the summer for a fresh and clean scent that moisturizes, soothes and
nourishes. It’s also a wonderful moisturizer to apply after a bath. Unlike
traditional lotions, it will simply melt as it is applied to your skin,
absorbing quickly and sealing the moisture inside. The twist up container makes
it travel friendly and because it is in solid form, no spills. Please keep
these out of direct sun exposure, nor leave in a hot car. Heat will cause
product to melt, and sun can decrease freshness (however, will solidify again
once placed in cool area).
Should you have some irritation due to mosquito or other insects’
bites and find yourself in need of soothing. Our Helichrysum Hydrosol Skin
Toner is excellent and it’s great for sun burned skin too. Enjoy Your Summer and click links below to

Lovely Is As Lovely Does.
