Why use Bug A'uwe!

(pronounced like Ow-way!)

DEET Free

DEET is a pesticide in many repellent products. DEET has been suspected to cause brain seizures or blood toxicity in children. BUG Auwe! contains no harmful pesticides as a plant based remedy for repelling and soothing bites.

Essential Oils

Our pledge is to create a product of the highest quality which includes Citronella, Lemongrass, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Lavender and Peppermint essential oils.

Anti Inflammatory

In addition to protecting from bugs when applied before exposure, this repellent can also be applied AFTER being bitten to bring down any swelling.

Eco Friendly

Made in Hawaii, our natural plant based formula is intended to be safe enough for babies,  respecting the animals we share the earth with and protecting our aina (lands).

Moisturizing

As this repellent was developed to be safely used on a daily basis, it was important to be functional in protecting the skin's surface with Vitamin E and the herbal healing properties of Aloe Vera and Witch Hazel.

Silky, non-greasy feel

Bug A'uwe is specially formulated to have the perfectly silky coverage of the skin yet a light, non-greasy feel.

Welcome to our line of BUG AUWE!

(pronounced Bug Ow way!!)

What does 'Auwe' mean?

A word commonly used in the Hawaiian islands, it's an expression used when something bad or sad has happened. Used like "darn" or "Oh no!" or "I'm sorry, that's awful!" Sometimes it's a cry for help from being in great distress. 

​

For example,

Child, "Popo (Grandma in Hawaiian), I lost the bracelet you gave me."

Grandma: "Auwe!"

​

Formulated to be pH balanced for the skin. Perfect for babies, adults, mothers, hikers, campers, family and friends. Basically, everyone. 

What people are saying 

My entire life I have been a mosquito magnet. It does not matter if I’m

in a room with 100 other people, I will always get bit the most and have

horrendous welts from the bites. I recently went hiking with my Mom

who happened to have your bug spray on hand. Not only did it smell

amazing but IT WORKS. Even the bites that managed to slip through

the defense do not itch nor welt. This is a holy grail product. 

Lucky for me, my Mom lived in Hawaii for a couple of years and

discovered your bug spray. I immediately ordered more. I use it on

myself and two small children almost everyday. Shipping was incredibly

fast. So happy to find a spray that works.
