Kinfield earns largely positive reviews for effective, deet-free outdoor essentials, particularly Daily Dew and Sunglow sunscreens that apply smoothly with no white cast and a dewy, breathable finish, while Golden Hour bug spray often works and smells far better than conventional sprays. However, reviews note mixed mosquito protection (especially in heavy-bug regions), a very strong lingering scent, occasional greasiness or thickness, and a desire for formats like roll-on or refills.

I use the bug repellant for a while because I am a bug magnet. It worked reasonably well ( I think) but has a greasy texture that is exacerbated by humid, muggy summers. All in all, not perfect, but definitely not bad!
great smelling bug repellent - the only one i can wear for multiple hours/days
Love the branding, and the bug spray works really well for something natural. Spray and forget, bugs won't come anywhere near you!
Feedback
The smell is really strong and lingers. Whenever I spray myself with the bug spray my clothes smell afterwards for days.
Golden Hour- I've been following Kinfield since before they launched so I was super excited to try. Idk what it is about my blood but I get absolutely eaten alive by mosquitos. I wanted a bug spray to use for more casual things, like outdoor dining, instead of the hardcore stuff, so I hoped this would be perfect. Unfortunately it just doesn't work for me. I didn't want to review until I tried it for a while, and I've used the bugspray many times now but still end up with bites :( Daily Dew- I love the sunscreen though! It really does give that nice dewy look without being too greasy, and doesn't leave a white cast.

The Golden Hour would be perfect if only it was effective at repelling bugs. The smell is definitely strong but much nicer than typical bugspray, packaging is cute, and love that there's a send-back option for recycling. My order also came with a cute little mesh drawstring bag which is nice
I live in Jackson, WY where it is super dry and summer or winter creates a lot of harshness for the skin. I've been using Kinfield's SOS rescue mask for about 6 months and absolutely love it as a night time cream. It's the perfect relief for long days outside.

I wish it had scent!
This product works pretty well! I'm super prone to bug bites, but stayed pretty much bite free during my week in India. The smell is quite strong though, and while it smells better than DEET, it doesn't smell like perfume. One star off for that, but otherwise, great product, and I love the packaging.
Love the face sunscreen so much! It feels dewey but not too dewey, which I feel with the Supergoop higher shine sunscreens. I feel like my face can still breathe. Its not that weighed-down stifling feeling that some old sunscreens seem to have, where it's like you put a plastic bag over your pores. I really recommend.
Works really well and is a great concept BUT I'm not a huge fan of the smell!
I am a mosquito magnet. I can't go outside in the summer without getting multiple bug bites. I just got my box from Kinfield in the mail and spent a week at my son's house. They have a pool, I spent time every day outside and didn't get a single bite. My only complaint is I haven't been able to test the recovery product yet!
I just have to say, I am absolutely in love with Sunglow by Kinfield! This stuff is amazing - it gives my skin a beautiful, natural-looking glow and it's super easy to apply. I love that it's made with clean, natural ingredients too. Gives me a nice little shine and may have overtaken Kinship Self Reflect for my fave SPF.

Give it a try.
Kinfield is incredible. It’s one of the most innovative companies on the market in this field, and it helps that the packaging is so cute! Owning the products just makes me want to go outside and I can’t wait to use them more this summer. I especially love the relief balm stick, it’s a great recovery for any bug bites.

Amazing modernized take on sunscreens and bugsprays and the ONLY brand whose bug spray actually smells good! We loved this brand so much that we bought 10 bottles of the bug spray to have at our wedding. Very cool look and feel of the packaging that fit in well with the design aesthetic of our wedding.

Being more clear on their packaging about their earth/sustainability impact
light bug spray works and doesn't have that overpowering "bug spray" smell
love the sunscreen

I was really excited about this bug spray and was hoping it would be like Supergoop for bug spray, and I love it in theory, but the smell was really overpowering and hard for me to get over or enjoy wearing.
Feedback
I'd love a different scent or unscented option for the bug spray if possible.
I SUPER love Kinfield's bug spray — I've started stocking up before each summer! It's deet-free and has a strong lemongrass-y scent, which is much friendlier to your nose but still really effective. Keeps mosquitos & tics away on a hot Berkshires day!
Feedback
Would love to see more sustainable packaging (less plastic)!
Love the branding, packaging, and overall look and feel of the brand/products. Tried the Golden Hour Bug Spray as well as the Daily Dew Moisturizer + SPF. The bug spay worked okay and smelled good (essential oils). Not sure I would bring it on a camping trip but it's fine for casual outdoor use. The moisturizer was great, left a little white cast, but overall melted into my skin nicely and did not feel greasy at all!
Highly Recommend!!!! they work!
Took the Kinfield spray to Maine for a weekend this July and was shocked by not only how good it smelled, but that it worked as good, if not better than OFF. Nice to see something aesthetically pleasing, versus the orange cap and label that traumatized me from my youth. Fun, eco-alternative.

Mosquitos feast on my husband during the summer and he swears by this stuff! He keeps it in his pocket whenever he is outside he loves it so much. We like that it is chemical free and works to repel mosquitos.
Feedback
The cost is high for bug repellent but it is worth it for the peaceful feeling of stepping outside during summertime in muggy DC.
