I use the badger spf 15 and its FAB!! I ususally get ugly brown marks on my cheeks from the sun in summer, even though I have always worn sun cream every day. So far this summer I have been out and about on my bike and just in general and the with the badger and no marks! And it makes my skin nice and soft too!

Would this be OK to use on an 8 mth old? Also where can I purchase it?

It's all natural and perfectly okay to use on an 8 month old. You can purchase it at www.uncommonscents.com. Just click on the link for the Badger Balm products.

And they're on sale! That's a really good price. I love Badger products!

I looked all over town for this stuff and nobody had it.
I came close, found a store that previously carried it but they said it didn't move fast enough so they stopped stocking it.

Thanks so much! We went to the beach for the first time and I couldn't stand rubbing all those chemicals all over DS, but I didn't want him sunburned either! This sounds much better.

Is the Badger easy to rub on or is it thick? I've spent a lot of time today online researching sunscreens and this sounds like a good one. I read California Baby is good to but the reveiws mentioned it being thick to apply. I'm planning on getting the Calfornia Baby stick for the face but trying to decide on one for the body. I'd like a spray but it seems they all use bad ingredients.
TIA

I found it WAY easier to apply than California baby. It seems a tad bit oilier, but it soaks in. ANd it's not white at all!

We love it. We use most of the Badger products and they're great!

It's easy to spread on.

At some health foods stores they have open bottles for testers, you can always ask and sometimes they have sample packets to take home. We just went to wild oats and they had testers of most of the sunscreens. I like the badger one. By the time i left my arm was covered in different test strips. My dds got covered in sunscreen free. lol I use california baby and i like it so far. I got my from Lucky Vitamins for pretty cheap.

Did it take long to come from there? They have several things I'd like to order but didn't know if they are good to order from.

I was skeptical as well since it isn't a well known company. But i took my chance and ordered a bunch of stuff i needed. I got the items within 3 days! I will definitely order from them again.

Wow, where did you find it for $12??? They have it listed here: http://www.saffronrouge.com/body-car...nics-sunscreen for $25.

I was interested in it but it's way too expensive for me. Can you pass along where you found it for $12??
Thanks!

We love Badger products, but good grief! $12 for 2.9 oz?? We'd use that in two weeks!!
