eastern prickly pear cactus flower Opuntia humifusa (Eastern Prickly Pear) Natural Communities LLCThe Prickly Pear is a low growing cactus, that typically grows in dry areas around here like Lake Michigan dunes or hill prairies. They are beautiful, particularly in areas like rock gardens. It is great to say "hey I have native cactus that lives here over the winter, want to see?" and you see people with a confused look :) They are native believe it or not and survive and thrive quite well.

The Prickly Pear is a low growing cactus, that typically grows in dry areas around here like Lake Michigan dunes or hill prairies. They are beautiful, particularly in areas like rock gardens. It is great to say "hey I have native cactus that lives here over the winter, want to see?" and you see people with a confused look :)  They are native believe it or not and survive and thrive quite well.

They do however have very fine, almost fiber optic fine, spines, that when brushed, dislodge from the plant and stick into your skin and really are next to impossible to remove. These are not fun and need to be taken into consideration if you have pets, children, or any concerns.

    Tear Free and No Sunburn
    Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    This stick is pretty small, but great for carrying with you. It does not glide very well across the skin, however, my son's eyes are very sensitive and it prevents it from gliding too far over and risking burning his eyes. Spreading with fingers afterwards is always a good idea, leaves a bit of a cast but I am very fair so not too bad, easy for reapplication as well. The only major drawback is how drying this product is to the skin, not immediately, but over the course of several days. Not sure if that is all 100% zinc oxide products, or if this one is just lacking in something. Overall a good safe option for little faces that is tear free and wont run or burn eyes, and that works against UV.

    Sun care for Babies.
    Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    Great scent, coverage, and good on sensitive skin. My grand daughter is a blond, peaches and cream complexion, the sunblock works. No sunburned nose or cheeks this summer. We applied a swipe about every 90 min and it works for us. The little one has sensitive skin and we try to protect her completely. This product is now part of her sun care regimen. ( I even applied it to her hair part and ears)

    I love sticks. Convenient and no product runs.
    Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    Purchased for my toddlers 3 - 5 years old faces. Easy to apply. Doesn’t break out or irritate skin. Prevents sun burn if you apply About 30 mins before water play or outdoor play in heat. Doesn’t bother their eyes. I like the sticks so I can smooth over face and cheeks with out the sun screen running. Good stuff.

    Absolutely love!!
    Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    By far the best baby sunscreen I’ve used! Better than Mustela sunscreen stick. This one glides on comfortably, is sheer and does not go on white at all, and smells great and the lid slides on and off easily. It’s quite durable and just the ultimate best sunscreen stick. The ingredients seem to be as safe and nontoxic as the other big brands and the price is very reasonable. Will be repurchasing.

    Less chemicals than others and it works! Need to sell a larger version however!
    Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 0.49 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    Easy application and excellent for sun protection! One of the "cleaner" ones with less chemicals, but could be cleaner. The tube is very small, so we only use this for face and use Alba Botanica for body. Last time swimming for 1.5 hours, did not burn, while friends who used other sunscreens on their faces were sunburned. Coppertone, please make a bigger tube!
