Augh! That always punches one of my buttons. "Chemical free"? So, you gonna spray a vacuum on your skin and repel insects?
Its the same thing with "organic foods, grown without chemicals"...I dunno about you, but I like my foods be grown in an environment where there are chemicals.
On the other hand, I don't like natural things on my skin, like mosquitoes.
...but it naaaacheral!!
Feh.
