Ava Anderson<\/strong><\/a> does not stop at making great mineral sunscreen.\u00a0 This nontoxic brand also carries skin care, body care, make up, scent, baby care, and products for the home.\u00a0 I had the chance to sample the Baby Wash and Baby Lotion \u2013 gentle with a fresh, light scent, and the All Purpose Glass Cleanerfor home with microfiber cloth \u2013 which I love and, since I had my own home cleaning business for several years, that is saying something.\u00a0 Jean tells me that the Barrier Cream is \u201camazing for eczema, rosacia, poison ivy, you name it!\u201d\u00a0 I love it when products are multi-purpose like that.<\/p>\nBack to the sunscreen review, you will notice I added a new category (an important one at that)\u2026Price:<\/p>\n
