Mozzie repellent that doesn’t remove fake tan

As a pale skinned lady I like to wear a fake tan on holiday and slather on a factor 50 and sit in the shade. I do not tan at all...

However the jungle formula mosquito repellent removes my fake tan. I use the strongest one as mozzies seem to love me :(

Any recommendations for a repellent that doesn’t do this? Thanks in advance :)

Not sure such a miracle product exists yet, but if you can invent one, I will crowdfund.

I've used that brand of Jungle strength deet with the Clarins fake tan, and it's never taken it off.

I use the jungle formula in a spray (as find it’s the rubbing in that takes off the tan)

Yay!! Thanks for replying :)

I might test with the spray and not rub - see what results I get and/or the Clarins.

I use MooGoo repellant, i get it from a health food shop snd its amazing, sprays on and smells so nice. All natural ingredients and I've never had a problem with it rubbing off fake tan, although i only use gradual tan. Think it was around £8 and a bottle lasted me 3 weeks in Asia so good value!

How about mozzie bands or something like this ?
