Growing a healthy cactus and succulents has always been a bit of a challenge. These desert-loving plants thrive in well-drained soil that mimics their natural habitat, where water quickly seeps through sandy, porous ground. Poorly drained soil can lead to water retention, root rot, and other problems that stunt growth. That's why, after many years of experience, we have developed a soil mix that is ideal for growing strong and healthy cacti.
Introducing Our Pro Mix Formula
Our premium soil mix is the result of years of experience and research in plant care. It combines an organic substrate enriched with mycorrhizae, which supports robust root system development, with carefully balanced inorganic media to ensure superior drainage and ventilation. This thoughtful blend promotes healthy growth, reduces water-related issues, and mimics the natural arid environments these plants love.
Benefits of Our Cactus and Succulent Soil Mix
- Optimal Drainage: Designed to dry out faster than general-purpose, peat-based mixes, preventing overwatering and water retention.
- Ventilation for Roots: The inorganic components create air pockets, ensuring roots receive adequate oxygen for healthier growth.
- Prevents Common Problems: Reduces the risk of root rot, algae, and fungus gnats by maintaining proper moisture levels.
- Adaptable to Conditions: Performs well in low-light environments and high-humidity conditions, making it versatile for various growing settings.
- Improved Nutrient Uptake: Helps leach excess fertilizer salts during watering, ensuring a balanced nutrient supply.
Why We Use Mycorrhizae and Why It Matters
Our mix is enriched with mycorrhizae endomycorrhizal fungi (Glomus intraradices), which form a symbiotic relationship with plant roots. This addition enhances nutrient absorption, improves overall plant health, and boosts flower or fruit yields.
We Only Use Premium Ingredients
Our soil mix is made with 5 high-quality ingredients to ensure the best results:
- Canadian Sphagnum Peat Moss: Provides structure and organic matter.
- Perlite (Horticultural Grade): Enhances aeration and drainage.
- Dolomitic and Calcitic Limestone: Balances pH for optimal growth.
- Wetting Agent: Ensures even water distribution.
- Mycorrhizae Endomycorrhizal Fungi: Supports strong root development.

Is this even real?!!!
Style: Face, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Ok, I am a sunscreen fanatic and have tried most products on the market and I am SO impressed with this product!!! It is by far the best daily facial sunscreen I've used so far!!! I really can hardly believe it is a (non-nano) zinc base as it leave absolutely NO whitish finish.
First of all, it's hard to find a sunscreen with only physical UV blockers (zinc or titanium) without any added chemical blockers. There are a few (including the Korean skincare products) but they ALL leave a white film. This is the FIRST all zinc sunscreen that looks completely natural after application. I still have NO idea how they did this without using nano-zinc!!!
Second, the texture and finish are so light and non-greasy that I cannot tell that I put anything on my face. It's fantastic!!! It absorbs right in!! Granted, I do not have oily skin so I cannot speak for someone who does. It isn't drying but also not super moisturizing so if you have dry skin, you might want to use a heavier cream under this product.
Third, the smell is light and pleasant. i do not find it overwhelming or distracting. I rather like it.
The downsides are (1) it is not inexpensive at about $20/2 oz and (2) it is not sweat resistant (though it suppose that would come at a cost of a more greasy texture).
I love love love this sunscreen!!! I only started using it recently so I'll see if it really works well to protect my face from UV exposure... I'll update this later regarding the effectiveness as a sunscreen.
Thanks for a fantastic product!!!

no white cast, super moisturizing, dewy finish, citrus scent
Style: Face, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Face, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have a shelf of sunscreens. I am trying to find the perfect sunscreen for daily use on my face. I happen to be fair skinned, so if it happens to have a white cast, it isn't too noticeable. But still, I'd like to not even have to worry about it. I also would prefer not to use chemical sunscreens. I often use those on my body, but for my face which is more sensitive- the physical (mineral) sunscreens is better for me. There is NO white cast with this, so definitely fine for darker skin tones if you are looking for a physical sunscreen.
This sunscreen is nice. I hot days or days I know where I will be sweating a bit, I don't bother with my expensive skin care routine, since I am likely to sweat it off. This sunscreen offers some skin care goodies above and beyond non nano zinc oxide. So I feel like I am still doing something for my skin, including moisturizing it. According to description, it has antioxidant super plants:
--Juanilama: anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-oxidant (87% more than vitamin E) properties, and
--Fierillo: anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, skin healing, and antioxidant properties;
plus..
--Wakame Kelp: reinforce skin defenses again environment, etc
--Tazman Pepper: reduces skin inflammation and redness, and
--Arabica coffee oil: lubricates skin. regenerates hydrolipid barrier to promote hydration and skin repairing.
Smells energizing- like a punch of citrus fruit. It lingers for a little while then seems to dissipate. I can get it near my eyes and they don't get irritated. Kinda surprised it is a strong scent for something that is likely to go on the face.
Bottles says no synthetic colors, fragrances or unhealthy ingredients. "Fragrance" is vague here, and although maybe not synthetic, it should be cleared up as to what it is.
The company says in answering one of the questions that the fragrance comes from essential oils- if so, they should list the essential oils used. I imagine it is a citrus blend, but essential oils are different than just listing "fragrance". It would be helpful to see exact oils used. Then in another question answered, it was not mentioned that essential oils are used to create fragrance, but that it would be naturally occurring from some of the other ingredients. Which is it? If it is the latter, then the company would be doing themselves a favor by taking the word fragrance out of the ingredient list since not only would it be redundant to keep it in there it could scare off people who are avoiding "fragrance" as a listed ingredient. A product can have a scent due to other ingredients used that have a naturally occurring scent .. and and still be fragrance free. If it is a matter of it being from essential oils.. then that should be listed as well- for better or worse- but at least it is transparent information. Some people have strong reactions to essential oils on their face, whether from scent or from the activity they have. Some dont have reaction. Yet Some have strong reactions to "fragrance" as an added ingredient. Normally I see "fragrance" on a bottle and choose something else, as it typically depicts synthetic, and if it isn't synthetic then it doesn't need to be listed generically as fragrance, but instead specifically as to what the fragrance is derived from.
Anyway, I thought I would add that as I am sure there will be potential customers looking at the ingredient list and this may help them one way or another. I hope this review has been helpful to you. If I learn anything new, I will be sure to come back to update. Take care all :)

Very Satisfied!
Style: Face, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is far better than some of the other facial sunscreens I have tried. It isn’t too thick, it has a smooth texture, and it does not leave the dreaded white cast that many do. It has a slight citrusy smell which some may not prefer, but it is not a deal breaker for me. I will definitely buy it again and continue using as my daily moisturizer.

Not a huge fan of this
Style: Face, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The pump bottle doesn't work, which isn't great but is also not a deal breaker. You can twist off the cap and get the product out that way. I may have just gotten a defective bottle, who knows?
The sunscreen itself has a really nice texture like others have said and it goes on smoothly with no cast. But it also smells strongly like incense; several very fragrant plant ingredients at play here even though it has no artificial fragrances. Rosemary, some kind of australian pepper plant, and other strong smelling ingredients. If strong smells bother you, you might not like this one. I really don't like this smell. It made my skin red and itchy too, unfortunately. Not something I can really use :(
Love what the company is doing with the clean ingredients, though. Lots of pros and cons here and I'd definitely recommend trying it out even though it wasn't my cup of tea. Getting the small sample size to start with was the right move!
