Review: Highly recommend. Weightless, non-greasy, easy to pack, and affordable. - For years, a powder sunblock was my go-to for arms, decolletage, and hands. It was effective, but the powder fallout was pretty messy. Fallout on dark-colored clothes would always be visible. For this reason alone, I wanted to try something I hoped would be less messy while still giving me great protection. This product fits the bill. It provides necessary protection, it glides on dry without leaving a mess, and it is easy to pack in a bag. I don't use this product under makeup, but I think you could. It applies a thin, smooth layer that dries colorless. Although I don't wear it beneath makeup, I have used it on top of makeup when I felt I needed a top up. It did not disturb my makeup, although I sort of tapped it on instead of swiping it on. I will re-purchase. ## Features - PROTECT & ILLUMINATE: Powerful broad spectrum UV protection that gives skin an instant golden glow!

Weightless, non-greasy, easy to pack, and affordable. *by S***N on November 5, 2018* For years, a powder sunblock was my go-to for arms, decolletage, and hands. It was effective, but the powder fallout was pretty messy. Fallout on dark-colored clothes would always be visible. For this reason alone, I wanted to try something I hoped would be less messy while still giving me great protection. This product fits the bill.

I will re-purchase. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to apply, decently blends into skin, good sun protection *by H***I on October 29, 2024* Does feel waxy and heavy so not great with makeup, but over makeup in extreme sunny conditions like golf makes sense. Love that I can apply and my hands stay clean. Works great as sun protection on face and back of hands and wrists because it does not run. I do not like that I cannot dispense all the product. I like that it is purse sized. ## Frequently Bought Together - MDSolarSciences Solar Stick SPF 40 – Water-Resistant Mineral Sunscreen – Broad Spectrum UV Protection – Blendable Zinc Oxide Travel Stick – Smooth, Sheer and Natural Matte Finish, 0.6 Oz - MDSolarSciences Gleam and Glow Sunscreen SPF 50 Tinted Face Moisturizer with Broad Spectrum UV Protection, Anti Aging Antioxidants, Sheer, Hydrating, Makeup Primer for Radiant Skin, 1.7 Fl Oz - MDSolarSciences Mineral Tinted Crème Face Sunscreen SPF 30 – Water-Resistant, Broad Spectrum UV Protection – Blendable Micronized Zinc Oxide Cream – Smooth, Natural Matte Finish, 1.7 Fl Oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/13243531-mdsolarsciences-solar-stick-spf-40-water-resistant-mineral-sunscreen-broad](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/13243531-mdsolarsciences-solar-stick-spf-40-water-resistant-mineral-sunscreen-broad) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
