Summer, without the swatting
PLANT-POWERED PROTECTION
Most conventional insect repellents rely on DEET, a synthetic repellent. Our 'Buzz Off!' natural insect repellents take a different approach: a blend of pure essential oils of lavender, eucalyptus, basil, lemongrass and peppermint - plant compounds that insects find naturally aversive - in a formula that's gentle on skin and pleasant to wear.
SPRAY OR ESSENTIAL OIL BLEND?
We offer two formats. The 'Buzz Off!' Spray ($29) combines the essential oil blend with alcohol-free witch hazel - a natural astringent that helps the oils bind to the skin for longer-lasting protection. The 'Buzz Off!' Essential Oil Blend ($26) is the concentrated version, perfect for adding to a diffuser to cover a room or outdoor space, or diluting in a carrier oil for direct skin application.

MADE FOR NEW ZEALAND SUMMERS
Mosquitoes at the barbecue, sandflies at the beach, bugs at the campsite - we make 'Buzz Off!' in Takahue Valley, Far North of New Zealand, where summer insects are a fact of life. Handcrafted in small batches using 100% natural ingredients, for the places Kiwis actually spend their summers.
GENTLE ON SKIN, KIND TO THE PLANET
Like everything we make, 'Buzz Off!' is 100% natural, cruelty-free and plastic-free - a repellent you can feel good about spraying on your skin and taking into the outdoors. Heading away for the holidays? Pair it with a natural body bar and lip butter for a plastic-free summer kit.
Frequently Asked Questions
What essential oils repel insects?
Lavender, eucalyptus, basil, lemongrass and peppermint are classic insect-repelling essential oils - plant compounds that mosquitoes, sandflies and other bugs find naturally aversive. 'Buzz Off!' blends all five into one plant-powered formula, as a skin spray or a concentrated oil.
Should I choose the spray or the essential oil blend?
Choose the spray ($29) for easy, direct use on skin - the alcohol-free witch hazel base helps the oils stay put for longer-lasting protection. Choose the essential oil blend ($26) if you want one bottle that does more: add it to a diffuser to cover a room or deck, or dilute it in a carrier oil for the skin.
Is 'Buzz Off!' DEET-free?
Yes - both 'Buzz Off!' products are completely DEET-free. The protection comes from a blend of pure essential oils of lavender, eucalyptus, basil, lemongrass and peppermint, handcrafted in New Zealand with 100% natural ingredients.
