I usually have to wrestle with her a bit before she finally gives in to my persistent efforts to smear some on her. Since I don’t always feel too confident about how evenly I’ve applied her sunscreen, I’ve started relying on a sunscreen stick as an extra layer of insurance after we go outdoors. https://www.mydadthechemist.com/reviews/sun-bum-mineral-lip-balm-review/ Fri, 21 Jul 2023 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.mydadthechemist.com/reviews/sun-bum-mineral-lip-balm-review/ Chapped lips are a nuisance—and they can get so bad that it becomes painful to eat (one of my favorite activities!). I was recently reading a book where this was the case for a little girl who couldn’t stop using Lip Smacker lip gloss and licking it off her lips. Licking your lips only makes them more dry, sadly…so it became a vicious cycle for her. Another character in the book recommended using Vaseline, which makes me respect this author more. https://www.mydadthechemist.com/reviews/desert-essence-fragrance-free-conditioner-review/ Sun, 16 Aug 2020 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.mydadthechemist.com/reviews/desert-essence-fragrance-free-conditioner-review/ There are few things I hate more than seeing “naturally derived fragrance” on a product label. I don’t care if the fragrance is naturally derived—I wish companies would just call it what it is: fragrance. Over the first few decades of my life, I haven’t really given a second thought to fragrances in hair products. It’s only over the past year or so that I’ve started to encounter a few bad experiences with irritating hair products. https://www.mydadthechemist.com/reviews/all-good-sunscreen-spf50-review/ Sat, 03 Aug 2019 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.mydadthechemist.com/reviews/all-good-sunscreen-spf50-review/ Good news, physical sunscreen enthusiasts: I’ve got another zinc oxide sunscreen review for you today. This one’s from All Good, a brand that was founded by a massage therapist. The first product in this company started out with a product known as All Good Goop, a healing balm that was designed to help soothe aches and pains. Today the company makes more kinds of products, including reef-safe sunscreens like the one I’m reviewing today: All Good Sunscreen Butter SPF 50+. https://www.mydadthechemist.com/reviews/asutra-yoga-mat-cleaner-lavender/ Tue, 14 Aug 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.mydadthechemist.com/reviews/asutra-yoga-mat-cleaner-lavender/ I practice yoga occasionally (keyword: “practice”). I usually only do it at home because I hate the idea of laying my mat on the ground and then rolling it up (the dirty side touches the “clean” side unless you have one of those newfangled “fold and roll” styles like this). But back when I was using ClassPass, I attended a few yoga classes at actual studios, aka not my living room—so I had to invest in a yoga mat cleaner.
