Common questions

Is Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent healthy?

Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent scores 94/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent?

Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent lists 10 ingredients, starting with Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus (Lemongrass) Oil and Thuja Occidentalis (Cedar) Leaf Oil. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent?

Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent compare to other insect repellent?

At 94/100 Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellent sits in our top band, among the better insect repellent we have scored. A higher-scoring option in insect repellent is Zevo On-Body Insect Repellent Aerosol at 100/100.
