Always used RID! The best and it doesn't feel like it's stripping your skin off. Love the new formula and pump pack and that you've kept the price reasonable. The cream is much 'lighter' than the old formula. Cheers 🌻

I bought rid to travel through south america. I havent had the chance to use it and it has leaked. It burnt a hole through my toiletry bag, burnt all the plastic off my electric razor and leaked into another pocket and burnt all the plastic off my driver license and travel money cards which are now unusable and im in colombia and cannot get new cards. The cap isnt even loose and i havent used it once.

We all used it and while they pestered us quite a bit we did not get bitten where it was sprayed. We recommend it for anyone going to tsetse infested areas.

I just wanted to let you know I was at the cricket all day Friday and all day Saturday, and that my RID sunblock meant I didn't get the slightest bit of burn.
