These unusual pseudomorphs of dolomite after aragonite have earned the name “snowflake” because of their hexagonal shape which is often striated to give the mineral an appearance like a chunky snowflake. ‘Pseudomorph’ means the mineral initially grew as aragonite, and then through geological processes the aragonite was replaced with dolomite. The new mineral will retain the shape of the original growth. 

With dolomite snowflakes, the aragonite crystal habit is referred to as ‘pseudo-hexagonal’ meaning the crystals that appear hexagonal are actually formed of multiple intergrown crystals (twinned growth). The pseudo-hexagonal crystals grow similar to the arms of its namesake snowflake, forming six symmetric small pointed pie-wedges (you may be able to tell, the boundary between crystals is about halfway between points).

This pseudo-hexagonal crystal habit is common in aragonite! Purple aragonite and sputnik aragonite also have a pseudo-hexagonal habit and get their hexagonal crystal shape from cyclic twinned growth—studied closely you can see similarities with the crystal growth of dolomite snowflakes.

UV reactivity This material reacts well, fluorescing strong orange  under 365nm UV light. It also has moderately strong phosphorescence of a yellowish-green color. This specimen also has an irregular cluster of attempted-twinned-growth on one side, which fluoresces whitish.

It's worth it.
Size: Size 7, Unit Count: 44, Size: Size 7, Unit Count: 44
I would like to provide feedback regarding a recent diaper experience. My toddler, who has a tendency to remove his diaper, has previously used Parent's Choice products since birth without issue. However, I have recently encountered a problem with both their standard diapers and Pull-Ups, specifically concerning the coverage in the gluteal region. This has led to the diaper riding up and causing a significant rash due to friction. I am pleased to report that after two hours of use, the current diaper has exceeded my expectations. My son has not removed it, and the coverage in the gluteal area is excellent. I will provide an update should any leakage occur. I also appreciate the baby powder scent and the overall quality of the product. While the price point is slightly higher than I typically prefer for diapers, my son is approaching three years old and will soon be transitioning to potty training.

Movement freedom and quick changes: The ideal diaper for active babies
Size: Size 5, Unit Count: 56, Size: Size 5, Unit Count: 56
360° Flexible Fit: The standout feature is the 360° stretchy waistband that adapts perfectly to the baby's body, preventing gaps and allowing full, unrestricted movement. • Easy On and Off: Being a "Pull-On" style, it slides up in a second. For removal, it features the practical "e-z off" tabs on the sides that tear easily for a hygienic and fast change. • Designed for Active Babies: The packaging highlights an All-Around Fit specifically engineered for dynamic little ones who need protection that keeps up with them. If your baby has started moving and diaper changes have become a 'wrestling match' with traditional tabs, Pampers Cruisers 360° are the ultimate solution. They offer the peace of mind of Pampers protection with the convenience of pull-up underwear. A great investment for your child's exploration stage.

Great swaddlers alternative when the Velcro became an issue
Size: Size 3, Unit Count: 136
I bought these because my daughter (12 months) started undoing the Velcro on her diapers, even through her clothes. Finding her soaking wet enough times led me to look for a solution. I really like these and will enjoy them until she finds her way out of them. They’re just as absorbent as Swaddlers and the overnights, and she never gets a rash in them. Only downside is the blowout barrier on the legs is much smaller, so she does have some blowouts out the side. The Swaddlers has more material there to prevent blowouts. These are also cheaper than Swaddlers and overall great quality. Soft and absorbent and I don’t have to worry about her even through a 13 hour sleep at night. That thing will weigh 5lbs when I pull it off her but it doesn’t leak! These are going to be our go to diapers as long as she doesn’t learn to pull them off.

Great fit and very convenient for active babies
Size: Size 4, Unit Count: 64, Size: Size 4, Unit Count: 64
These diapers are a great option, especially for active babies. The 360 design makes them easy to pull on and off, which is really convenient during quick changes. They fit well without feeling too tight and provide good coverage. Absorbency is solid, keeping things dry for a good amount of time. The material feels soft and comfortable on the skin. I also like how easy they are to dispose of after use. Overall, a reliable and convenient choice for everyday use.
