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.

    returned- for now
    Style: Updated Formula
    I was using the lotion version of this for about a year, then went to the balm for more hydration. However, it seems to be breaking me out. I think because it's spring, im not needing as much occlusion as i did during winter. I'm gonna go back to the lotion formula, then pick this up again next winter. It is a little hard to spread, but I spray the avene mineral water on, let it dry slightly, and press the balm into my skin when its still wet. That helps thin the balm just enough to rub in. Otherwise, it can actually feel kind of rough!

    Impressive

    Nice thick cream! I even saw results (skin improvement) within days. I like this way better than their Cicalfate+, as it’s easier to rub in, less greasy, and doesn’t have the water vs cream separation issue. I’m not a huge fan of the pump top for this one, but at least it’s a tube instead of a solid canister (where you can’t see how much is left or get to the last bit).

    Not Hydrating Enough
    Style: Updated Formula
    Non greasy but is not moisturizing enough for my dry eczema prone skin.
