XS - Extra Strength formulation, lasts up to 8 hours Pleasant minty scent with a mature undertone of catnip. Mister top works when bottle is inverted for spraying legs and feet The XS Fomulas have a more musty-minty smell than the HOMS formula due to the presence of mint, and the Catnip which some say smells like fresh-cut wet hay. Some people prefer the more "tropical" smell of the HOMS formula (especially children) that is imparted by the geranium and vanillin, while others appreciate the more mature understated smell of this formula. The high mint content makes it feel cool to the skin when applied. A hi-tech blend of ingredients and packaging that is expensive to produce, it is suitable for rugged or prolonged performance Outdoor activities. It comes in an equally rugged 120 ml aluminum bullet bottle with a mister top that produces approx 900 fine mist sprays for approx 30 full body applications and works when upside down to facilitate spraying legs and feet. If you`re serious about your gardening, golfing, mountaineering, backpacking, fishing or any other activity where you need the longest possible protection, then this is the best formula that you can buy - anywhere. Because this formula is based on bioprocessed oils it`s effectiveness is due to penetrating the skin and interacting with the skin lipids to create a gas "aura". The process is covered by a number of patents on file from the same Swiss chemist who provides one of the formulas HOMS uses in the United States for distribution there. Emu oil creates an ideal symbyosis with this process by helping transport the fatty acids from the bioprocessed oils through the skin. In addition to its superior moisturizing properties, Emu oil is non-comodegenic so it does not clog pores, but also helps with sweatproofing and waterproofing - its penetrating properties lead to it to being non-ephermeral on the skin. Like Emu, Catnip has received favourable reviews. In the USA, research findings were released on it by the Iowa State University, and it is gaining increased attention from both scientific research and consumer health groups.
