5 bottles SOLD EVERY MINUTE! 😀
This item is one of the best Avon products and one that you won’t want to be without during the summer and whilst on holiday.
Skin So Soft Original Dry Oil Spray
First launched in 1962 this has now become one of Avon’s BEST SELLING PRODUCTS.
The oil is totally dry and does not leave any marks or smudges on your clothes.
As a moisturiser it helps soften your skin and is best applied after a bath or shower whilst the skin is slightly damp, as this locks in the moisture.
Fast-absorbing, non-greasy hydration, enriched with luxurious oils (natural and jojoba) , long-lasting moisture for normal to dry skin.
There is a very nice pleasant woody smell and the oil is clear. It contains citronella which is a lemon smell and which helps to repel insects (keeping mosquitoes away).
In 2017, 55 years after its Launch, Avon repackaged the Skin So Soft (SSS) range in to clear bottles
with a new logo as we see it today.
The spray comes in a 150ml bottle and has a pump dispenser.
Soldiers have been using it for years and swear by the stuff! Some soldiers in a camp in Scotland discovered this back in 2005 when they were plagued by midges on camp.
So if you are one of those people who can’t go anywhere during the summer months without being eaten alive then maybe you should give this a try. It must work well if the Army lads are using it!
Did you know those of you with blood type O are more likely to be bitten by Mosquitos?
They also track down their prey sniffing for Carbon Dioxide so the larger you are the more CO2 you release, and also Mums-to-be are at a higher risk as they release 21% more CO2.
And if that wasn’t bad enough they also use their eye sight, so if you are dressed in dark colours (the total opposite of what you tend to wear on holiday) they are less likely to see you.
This Spray has so many uses
… and although these are not endorsed by Avon themselves this original dry oil spray truly is amazing!
*SSS is approved by the FDA/CDA only as a bath product. Avon does not endorse its use for anything other than a bath oil.

73. A great insect repellent for your pet. (As recommended in “Outdoor Life” and “Field and Stream”)
74. Mix 5 parts water, 1 part SSS and mist on animals. Brushing it in makes their coats gleam and keeps insects off so the animals don’t fidget in the show ring.
75. Mix in your pet’s bath water. It takes the fleas off of them…and in between sprays them with the 5 parts water, 1 part SSS mixture to help keep them off.
76. Rub on your hands before and after working with your pets and farm animals. It will remove the strong smells.
77. Black Fly Spray For Dogs: Use as a spray or a dip. 1 cup SSS, 1/2 cup liquid detergent and 3 gallons of water.
78. For dog’s dry skin mix 1 tablespoon of SSS per gallon of water and use as an after bath rinse. Or spritz your pet’s coat with Skin-So-Soft original dry oil spray once per week.
79. If your dog should get tar or asphalt on the pads of their feet rub on SSS and then wipe off.
80. Flea Bath: Use a flea and tick shampoo. Rinse, rinse, rinse so no soap residue is left. Follow with final rinse of 2 gallons of water mixed with flea dip and 1 capful of SSS. The Skin-So-Soft original dry oil spray helps replace the oils lost in bathing and has the added benefit of repelling insects.
81. Flea Repellent: Avon’s SSS Dry Oil. 1-1/2 ounces per gallon of water; used as a sponge-on dip (or as a spritz) has been tested and proven to have significant, but not complete, flea-repellent activity for a 6-day period. It should help those dry coats, too.
82. Great on animals with dry skin.
83. Use the following on horses – read the Horse and Hound article here – and on dogs when necessary. 1-cup Avon SSS dry oil 1-cup white vinegar 1-cup (or more) water 5 cc of essential oil of citronella (from the health food store NOT the type you burn to keep insects away that is available in a drug store) Mix in a spray bottle. Straight SSS works well for mosquitoes too but really makes your dog greasy.
84. (Barns) Use as an inexpensive fly control spray or a diluted mix of Avon SSS in water can be sprayed on barn walls and floor to discourage insects from hanging around or to eliminate them before putting in the new bedding. As time permits, and if you can keep your goats out of the barn for a few hours – let the barn stand and air out before re-filling with bedding.
85. Avoid pet odour… rub on your hands before and after working with pets and farm animals.
86. A natural way to help cats with flea problems and flea allergies is to rub Skin-So-Soft original dry oil spray into the skin. Fleas don’t like it either! Spread the word!
87. Cats: SSS IS SAFE FOR FUR. Don’t overuse the SSS. Use the lotion, and rub it into the skin, not more than every few days. Common sense is the rule. You can check with your vet to be sure if it’s okay…

89. A muzzle, eye, and ear enhancer. SSS works great and still helps keep bugs away.
90. Horses that have allergies and also get dry skin very easily can get baths in SSS. Bathe her like normal and then put a capful of SSS in a 5-gallon bucket of warm water and sponge this all over her. Her coat dries silky soft and she quits itching.
