You can't even tell by he manufacturers web site what is what. S C Johnson, the manufacturer of Off! doesn't have it on their website, instead the list Autan Repel, which is Picaridin based, but it has been discontinued. Nothing like keeping your customers really confused, eh

The quoted review was obviously for a different product - just shows how manufacturers change things (and why Choice articles date rather quickly!). Good news anyway as I want to try some on my next trip to a tropical place.

Dave,
I have a pump pack of Off! Skintastic in front of me now and the
label says the active constituent is 92.8g/L Picaridin.

Cheers,

That review shows Skintastic is DEET based, not Picardin?
