Will this cause skin problems?

Starting nest year I will be touring by bike. To start with I am going to do a 1 - 2 day tour, then later in the year I will do a 4 to 7 day tour.

It will all be self contained. I will be staying at campgrounds for my overnight stays. The campgrounds all have shower facility's, etc. When I get to the campgrounds and set my tent up, but before I eat I will shower of course.

Here is where I need to know if this will cause skin problems: After showering I will more then likely have to use bug repellant to keep from getting eaten alive. The next morning I will not shower but instead use some kind of re-freshening item. Old Spice has them, I thihnk Lever 2000 even has a type, or I could also use baby wipes. After that I will apply sun-block.

In doing all of this could it cause a reaction on my skin? From the bug spray, to the re-freshening cloths to the sunblock? These items by themselves do not cause me any problems. But I am concerned about "mixing" them together. I know that overnight the bug spray will wear off, somewhat. Or am being concerned over nothing and should not worry about it?

Thanks.
