Great product!

Love this product. I have been using it for about 4 years. I failed to add the discount code with my last order. I emailed right after placing the order to see if it could be added and no one responded. I will continue to use the product but was disappointed about the lack of response to my inquiry.

The Holy Grail

I have searched for a mineral sunscreen for what seems like decades. Some manufacturers (ahem, EltaMD) claim their products are mineral-based and reef-safe, but sneak questionable ingredients (e.g, octinoxate, octisalate, butyloctyl salicylate) into the inactive ingredients list. Research shows that these, and others, are endocrine inhibitors that disrupt ecosystems, including coral reefs. They are probably not great for humans either. Including them in the list of inactive ingredients is unconscionable, but that is a rant for another day. Other mineral sunscreens I have tried leave a white, sticky residue no matter how much you rub them in. After spending a ton of time and money on this search, I found this remarkable product. All of the ingredients are benign for humans and their environment. Moreover, it feels like a fabulous moisturizing lotion, increasing the likelihood that I will use it every day (without cussing). I also love that it has prickly pear, which I have found to be wonderful for my skin.
My only wish is that it came in larger containers!

Prickly Pear Antioxidant Jojoba Sunscreen SPF30

It feels like a nice lotion!

I bought the Prickly Pear Antioxidant Jojoba Sunscreen SPF30 recently and have used it several times. Before that, I was using other mineral-based sunscreens but I hadn’t found one I liked because they all were thick, felt chalky, and were difficult to completely wash off. I love the Prickly Pear sunscreen. It feels just like you’re putting on lotion. It’s not chalky and it is absorbed right away, plus there’s no residue once you shower it off. And it works; no burns or signs of too much sun. Perfect!

Switch for Winter

I found Sweet P's through the creosote sunscreen and used up three bottles this past summer. I decided to switch to the prickly pear sunscreen for winter for a change and then back to the creosote for summer, since creosote has natural spf on its own and thus probably boosts the spf of the oxides formula. Both sunscreens are high quality and fresh and the only ones I can use. The formula works because usually by the end of summer some of my freckles are darker, but not this year with the creosote. My skin is much improved too.
