The Active Ingredient: Refined OLE/PMD
Most natural sprays rely on raw essential oils that evaporate before you even hit the trail. PureGard is different. We use PMD (p-menthane-3,8-diol), derived from the Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus (OLE).
Premium Sourcing: We harvest only the youngest baby leaves, where the botanical concentrations are at their peak, ensuring a more refined and potent extract.
Gold Standard Protection: The CDC recognizes PMD as the only plant-based active ingredient comparable to DEET, providing long-lasting protection against mosquitoes and ticks.
Scientifically Refined: Unlike raw oils, our refined PMD is distilled to maximize the repellent compounds while minimizing skin irritation.
The Base: Pure Water
We believe your protection should feel as light as a summer breeze. By using a water-based carrier instead of heavy oils, we offer a truly elevated experience:
Refreshing & Clean: PureGard rests gently on your skin without any oily or sticky residue. It’s protection you’ll actually forget you’re wearing.
Fabric Friendly: Spray with confidence. Our clear formula won't stain your favorite summer clothes, outdoor gear, or upholstery.
Earth-Friendly: A water-based carrier is gentler on the environments you love, including areas near the lakes and streams where you play.
The Harmony: Therapeutic-Grade Alcohols
Precision blending ensures your peace of mind lasts all afternoon. We use high-purity alcohols to manage how the scent and protection interact with the air around you.
The Gentle Release: This specialized blend allows our active botanical to evaporate slowly and steadily. It creates a quiet "protective veil" that stays with you, so you can stay present in the moment.
Reliable Coverage: Every mist provides a consistent, balanced application, ensuring you have the exact protection you need, exactly where you need it.
Health Canada Registered: Every ingredient is officially vetted for safety and effectiveness (Reg. No. 35851).
Pure Intentions: We’ve left out the synthetic fragrances, DEET, and fillers.
Professional Trust: From backyard playdates to professional expeditions, PureGard provides the reliable confidence you need to breathe deep and explore freely.
