Reviews mention

  • Dewy, breathable sunscreen finish
  • Smooth, even sunscreen application
  • Effective, deet-free bug protection
  • Pleasant, citrus-herbal fragrance
  • Overpowering, lingering spray scent
  • Inconsistent mosquito-repelling performance
  • Occasionally greasy spray texture
  • Thick, tugging moisturizer consistency

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.

  • Best bug spray I have ever used! Smells great, actually works, is fun to apply. I swear by it in the summer.

  • Best natural bug spray ever. Best smell, works powerfully, just the best.

    Would love this as a roller or something smaller for shorter hikes or in my beach bag.

  • Love their "human" feeling marketing – a lot harder than it looks to pull off. Brand feels like the outdoor voices of skincare. The bug spray fits in purses and cars, but you'll go through it quickly if you spray all over.

    The bug spray smells nice, but doesn't work great against Texas bugs. It's better than nothing but isn't as effective as I need. :( Will finish the product I have but probably not repurchase.

  • I used their golden hour bug spray. Love having it as a natural option around the house. It's also a great deet-free option for kids! Packaging is cute.

    It's a natural bug spray, so you have to keep reapplying. Not as strong as chemical DEET bug spray, but that's totally fine and expected.

  • I really like using this product for its efficacy -- and I love the smell.

    It worked well at repelling insects for me, but my husband is one of those people who always gets inundated with bug bites and it didn't work as well for him.

  • I love this stuff. My frustration with traditional bug spray: I’m at the beach (or backyard, etc) and I’ve showered but I need bug spray for the evening, except then I feel gross about getting into bed all covered in DEET. Enter Kinfield. It works (used in Mexico, a very buggy Northeast backyard, etc), it even moisturizes a bit, and it doesn’t feel like I’m marinating in ick all night.

    I like it, but my husband and friends don’t like the scent. It is quite strong (on purpose). I don’t mind it a bit but your mileage may vary.

  • I've tried the golden hour and sunday spray and am a fan of both products. Living in Florida, the bugs are real, and the golden hour truly leaves me bite-free. The smell is a bit strong (think citronella vibes), but it beats the smell of regular bug spray and I love that it's good for my skin and the planet. The sunday spray is a great remedy to sun-kissed (or burned) skin that keeps calms the skin without the sticky-factor of aloe.

    Bring back the moisture stick! I loved this product for keeping my skin right during air travel in specific - it was the perfect travel size.
