Insect repellent?

Please can anyone recommend a good insect repellent for UK use? I have very sensitive skin so don`t think I would be able to use deet on my face and neck which are the main areas I am getting bitten.
Thanks,
Slinky

Not sure this is too helpful but mozzies and the like don't seem to like Lavender (neither do i though!). Maybe using a moisturiser with this in? Lush does one called Imperiallis (about £10) which may be a start (I can't smell the lavender in this but I suspect the mozzies can & it seems to work for me)
Hope you get some relief soon, the blighters are a menace at the moment.:)"I am not a vegetarian because I love animals; I am a vegetarian because I hate plants." A. Whitney Brown0 -
Thanks very much, I think I have some lavender oil here so will try adding a few drops to some moisturiser. The little blighters are eating me alive and my face is bitten to pieces.
