## Overview

Sawyer Ultra 30% DEET Insect Repellent Lotion combines advanced liposome technology with a potent 30% DEET formula to provide up to 11 hours of odorless, non-greasy, and sweat-proof protection against a broad spectrum of biting insects. Packaged in airline-approved twin 3-ounce bottles, it’s designed for the modern adventurer seeking reliable, skin-friendly defense from backcountry trails to urban backyards.

## Description

The non-greasy, odorless Ultra 30 Insect Repellent Lotion from Sawyer combines 30 percent DEET with a comfortable liposome base for up to 11 hours of protection against mosquitoes, ticks, flies, chiggers, fleas, and no-see-ums. It's comfortable for use in the backcountry or in the backyard. Similar to the earlier generation of polymer-based controlled release systems, the Liposome envelops the active ingredient, DEET, and slowly time-releases it as needed, thereby extending the effectiveness of the repellent. Unlike polymers, however, liposomes are a natural compound more often used in cosmetics, which allows this formula to be comfortable to the skin, easier to wear, and practically odorless. Sawyer Ultra 30 is also non-staining, compatible with sunscreens, and sweat proof. It's available in an airline-friendly 3-ounce bottle, as well as a 4-ounce bottle. Since 1984, Sawyer has used technological advancements to create products that keep you outdoors — from the backcountry to the backyard — including insect repellents for both skin and clothing, water filters for camping and emergencies, and sun protection.

Review: Two Thumbs Up from a Mosquito Magnet - This is the holy grail for mosquito-magnets like me -- serious protection without the smelly, oily residue! It looks and applies like sunscreen, and dries in seconds, leaving very little odor or greasiness compared to other DEET repellents. The disadvantage is that one little bottle doesn't last long, if you need seamless coverage on a lot of skin. I've got thin, extra-warm skin and no fat (thanks, Mom), and have often watched mosquitos fly through a crowd of people to hover along MY skin, searching for the tiniest gap in my protection. 20% picaridin only reduces bites for me, and "natural" repellents are useless. The best repellent I'd found (other than 75-99% DEET, which irritates my skin after several hours) was Repel "10 hour" 30% DEET wipes, which work well for about 3 hours and reduce bites for another 1-2 hours. This Sawyer lotion is just as effective, but lasts almost twice as long. 20% Picardin, and 10-15% DEET products, only reduce the number of bites (and not for long), and natural repellents are useless.
Review: Perfect for travel, long lasting - While others I was traveling with were bit by dozens of mosquitoes, I managed to avoid that itchy fate. I would rub this on my exposed arms and neck before heading out in the morning and that would be it for the day. The place where I was staying had quite a bit of stagnant water in an unused pool, so there were a bunch of mosquitoes out at night. As an extra measure, I would use some DEET spray on my clothing. For the record, I hate lotions in general but considering the necessity of it, this wasn't too bad. I used minimal amounts and it felt like ordinary lotion. I also didn't wear any sunscreen since I don't burn easily though I will probably age prematurely. The only thing that really sucked was washing all of it off at the end of the night since there was only very cold water available to shower. Be sure to package it separately in a plastic bag or use tape or whatever to ensure it's tightly sealed if you're traveling on a plane as my bottle wound up spilling and making a mess in my carry-on liquid bag. Oddly enough, it erased some of the print on my metal bug spray canister. Still, despite the minor loss, this lasted me 10 days with quite a bit left over.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really good stuff
*by A***S on June 12, 2019*

I will not mince words and say this is a VERY good product. I slathered this stuff on me before going out fishing in upper Wisconsin. A fun fact is that upper Wisconsin are some big, nasty, aggressive bugs. Musketos, biting flys, nats, ticks, etc. I have seen them ignore other bugsprays and do the backstroke in a puddle of others, before shaking off and flying away. Now before I slathered this stuff on, my whole body was being attacked by dozens upon dozens of these things. Once I was done applying the lotion, threw on a shirt and hat, and magically no more bugs. The nats dissapeared, and the musketos were hanging back a few feet. I could see them probing for missed spots in the application, and when they found on, I just put on a little more, and boom, I was completely protected. We went out fishing for I would say 4 some hours. After heavy sun, some sweating, wiping, and we were still protected. Got back to the camper, and did some cleanup, tree cutting and the like, and was still good. I knocked off 1 star, for while it it appears the stuff is sweat resistant, it is neither water resistant or proof. I had to jump off the boat to drag it into shore. When we got to the camper and I sat for a moment. I was swarmed by the blood sucking monsters from where my legs were in the water. I had to reapply in that area to be protected again. The smell while noticable, was 80% or less of what bug spray smells like. It goes on oily, but after a few min, it absorbs and does not leave anything resembling a greasy feeling. Before you ask, hell yes I am going to buy more for fishing, or arround the yard work, or hiking. Just dont get the stuff wet. I recommendation to the manufacturer, if you can figure out a way to make it water resistant without any negative effects, this would be an amazing product.
