Spraying chemical bug sprays on your skin can be very irritating, sticky, and usually comes with an unpleasant smell that sticks with you for days. That’s why we decided to create an all natural mosquito repellent soap that uses ingredients such as citronella oil, menthol oil and coconut oil. Learn more about our soap.

Benefits of Citronella Oil

Citronella Oil, one of the main ingredients in Osana’s All Natural Mosquito Repellent Soap, has numerous uses and health benefits including:

• Antibacterial: Compounds in Citronella Oil  kill bacteria and inhibit any further bacterial growth in the body. This is particularly helpful in treating infections in wounds.
• Antidepressant: This oil fights depression and gives relief from anxiety, sadness, and negative feelings. It induces a fresh, happy feeling and hope.
• Deodorant: The rich citrus or lemon-like aroma of this oil prevents body odor and is used in deodorants and body sprays.
• Oily Skin Treatment: Citronella oil is an astringent and may help with oily skin areas. Apply two or three drops of citronella oil to a cotton ball and gently wipe off the excess oil. Start with small amounts as this oil if very potent and may cause irritation to those with sensitive skin.
• Relieves muscle and joint pain: Citronella oil,  possesses activating and warming qualities both physically and mentally. When citronella oil is diluted properly in a base oil and is applied to skin, it produces a mild sensation of warmth – which relieves painful muscles and joints.

With Osana, there is no spraying or toxic lotions involved, simply washing with the soap is all you need to keep mosquitoes away. For the absolute best results, Osana is most effective after 3 days of continual use.

Most people use Osana as their everyday body wash during the summer as it provides a great cleansing to the body, and you do not have to worry about bringing mosquito repellent with you everywhere they go. Using Osana soap, you get clean, protected from mosquitoes, and you are helping save a life.
