Mineral SPF 50 Face Stick Sunscreen - Travel Size, 0.45 oz | Broad Spectrum Sunscreen, for Sensative Skin, Vitamin E, Hawaii 104 Act Compliant (No Octinoxate & Oxybenzone)

Love this sunscreen! Easy to apply, not super thick and doesn’t have an overpowering smell. I will continue to buy this!

Super easy to apply and I haven’t burned at all this year working in my garden and I burn easily!

This product worked great for us in the Philippines for a week of sea kayaking off the coast of Palawan and 4 days at a beach resort. Lots of sun exposure time and no burns. We reapplied at least three times a day but was wearing hats and long sleeve rash guard when possible as nothing workes better than SPF clothing. We took 4 bottles but only used 2.5 bottles for two people over a week and a half for two people of our more sun-intensive days. If wanting to go without a rash guard I would suggest a bottle would last 3 full days of sun for one person when doing multiple recoats of chest, legs, and face. I had no issue with stinging in eyes when applying it to my forehead in the sun after letting it dry for 20 minutes. This product will make a very slight white cast to your skin when you have it on in the correct amounts, didn't bother us. It will also leave lighter spots on clothing you get it on but will get lighter throughout the day and washes out 100%. I would definitely use this again over standard sunscreens for the corals and because it didn't sting my eyes.

I wanted to like it because the small stick format seemed very convenient to keep in my bag for emergency sunscreen reapplication with no chance of leaks. But I think I have learned my lesson about stick sunscreen - in order to hold together in a stick, it has to have a thick and chalky consistency. Which makes it hard to apply and hard to rub in. It's so thick that if I rub the stick over my entire face it feels like I'm applying way too much with a super heavy white cast, and if I dab here and there and try to spread it around, it's so thick it doesn't feel like it spreads into good coverage. The scent is fine. Update: I have found a specific use case for this - in extreme UV conditions like the equatorial tropics in midsummer, it's a good base layer under a more liquid mineral sunscreen, to add extra protection to the most exposed skin, like tops of shoulders, chest, nose and top of forehead. The thickness makes it protect better. It also softens a little and rubs in better in hot temps.

Best sunscreen Ive found. Doesn’t make my eyes water and stay on for hours

Bottle came as it should. I, a very pale and easily burned individual, used this at a 4 day festival in Florida during spring time, and did not burn. To me, that is very impressive. I also appreciate the ingredients list because it is not full of garbage. It rubbed in and set fine. If you give it time to dry, you won't deal with any major streaks. The only time we noticed any were on my husband's face, under his sunglasses line.

I really wanted to like it because of the great reviews it gets with backpackers and generally with people that don't like "greasy hands syndrome" after applying sunscreen. But after using a stick I found that it's just not that good. The good: small, lightweight container. Not greasy. Good protection, I was in the sun all day hiking multiple days straight and only put on sunscreen twice per day and I didn't have any burning... and I burn easily. The bad: Value: the $12.53 sunscreen container only lasted about 8 days. And that was just my arms, neck, and half my face since I wore a shirt and long pants and a wide brim hat every day when hiking. I would expect this amount of sunscreen to last a lot longer than that on such a limited area. I'm not a big person either. Application, chafing: it's the opposite of greasy, almost chalky. You use the stick to apply to your skin in stripes, then you have to "blend it in" by rubbing with the backs of your hands so your palms don't get chalky. Since the stick is so dry this requires a fair amount of force and it chafes as you rub it around. When your skin a bit sandy it hurts. Application, crumbling: on a chilly but sunny morning, about 45 F, I applied sunscreen and small chunks of the stick crumbled off. I watched precious chunks of the already overpriced sunscreen drop to the ground. Residue: while it's not greasy, it's physical sunblock so it gives your skin the characteristic whitish sparkle. That's to be expected. But what I didn't foresee is it will rub off on anything your skin touches. My gear had white chalk-like marks (technically titania powder?) on my shirt collars, backpack straps, sunglasses, and a few other high-touch items. Overall I think it's a neat idea. I'm not overly disappointed with my purchase. But for $12.50 I expect sunscreen to be easier to apply and for the container to last longer than about 8 days. I can't burn $50/month in the summer months when a single container of chemical sunscreen will do the job. Pro tip: you can buy food-safe 3 oz TSA travel containers. Load one of those up with chemical sunscreen and you have something that beats this in every way except for the greasiness, which you can mitigate by picking a lower SPF sunscreen (the 30 SPF you wear is infinitely better than the 50 SPF you skip!).

Works well. Took a little more effort to rub into skin.

Too thick and piling under make up

Good stuff

High quality product with soft texture. without any scent. Highly recommended.

I like the pocket size, and natural ingredients! You need to like the coconut smell, quite strong. However, it is not easy to apply, as it feels quite dry. Suggest to apply when your face has moisturiser or oil for easy gliding. Please read other review before purchasing. Cheers.

Excellent product. Great protection
