Lyme Disease Outbreak: Protect Yourself with Avon Skin So Soft Bug Guard

June 7, 2017 by Juliann

You’ve probably heard that Lyme disease is a growing concern in the United States but did you know that this year we’re on the brink of a Lyme disease outbreak? The recent acorn surge means mouse populations will climb — giving rise to more disease-carrying ticks.

This summer, protect your family with the whole line of Avon Skin So Soft Bug Guard products. Avon’s two dual action SKIN SO SOFT BUG GUARD PLUS lotions not only repel and protect against mosquitoes that may carry the Zika virus, but also against deer ticks that may transmit Lyme Disease.

Avon’s lotion formulas that repel and protect against deer ticks that may transmit Lyme Disease and mosquitoes that may carry the Zika virus, and other insects, include:

  • SKIN SO SOFT BUG GUARD PLUS IR3535® Gentle Breeze SPF 30 Lotion: Dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic, this lotion is lightly scented with a cool, springtime fragrance.
  • SKIN SO SOFT BUG GUARD PLUS IR3535® SPF 30 Cool ‘n Fabulous Disappearing Color Lotion: The pediatrician-tested, hypoallergenic, kid-friendly formula goes on blue so you can see exactly where it’s being applied, then dries and disappears into the skin. 

Additionally, they provide vital SPF 30 sun protection – something that’s already a year-round must. Getting into the habit of regularly protecting yourself and your family from exposure to bugs and bites is one of the best things you can do to stay safe

I received samples of both of these formulas to review. They came at a perfect time, because we went camping for Memorial Day weekend. Where we camp (In La Pine, Oregon) there is the hot sun as well as bugs. Many, many bugs. I was so thankful to have my Skin so Soft Bug Guard Formulas available to keep my family’s skin safe from the varmints as well as the sun’s harmful rays. My son, Braxton loved slathering himself with the fun disappearing color lotion. He thought it was the greatest. He didn’t receive even one mosquito or tick bite, nor did he get sunburned on our 3-day camping trip.

Where to buy: Available exclusively on Avon.com and through Avon Representatives.

Price: $14.00 each for Skin So Soft Lotions

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.


Myelie, contributor at Beautiful Moms

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.

We are PR-friendly and love working with great companies!
