This surprised me...

In all honesty this is the first sun stick that I have tried. But I wanted to try one out because now that my skin is clearer, I am wearing less makeup on a daily basis and so a product like this is perfect to throw in my bag and take with me anywhere so that I can reapply my SPF. Things I like about this are: 1) the shape - I really enjoy the year drop shape of this sun stick. It makes it easy to get into the crevices around the nose and mouth, without feeling like I am missing any part of my face. 2) the finish - this almost leaves my face with a satin-like finish. I was surprised at this as I was worried a sin stick would leave my face looking greasy and too shiny but it actually looks really natural. 3) the texture of the product - this seems like a very firm product but the consistency of it is definitely transfering onto the skin when you swipe it across the face and neck because you can feel the satin/powder-like residue on your face. But it glides across the skin without any real effort. 4) the convenience - like I said this is a great product to throw in my bag and take anywhere with me. I am currently on oral Isotretinoin so my skin is seriously sensitive to the sun right now. And if I am out and about I want to reapply my SPF as often as possible. The small component, coupled with the solid formula guarantees that I can take it anywhere, even in my pocket, without having to worry about opening my bag to see that a tube of liquid SPF has exploded during transit. Also to note, my daughter (aged 3) wanted to try out this when I was using it and she thoroughly enjoyed applying it. It also didn't irritate her skin in any way so I believe this to be great for sensitive skin types. The downside to this, possible like with most SPF sticks, is that you have to make quite a few passes across the face to guarantee an even coverage of the SPF factor stated. This alone cannot and should not be used as your only source of SPF. It is always recommend to use a standard liquid suncream in the morning and to use sin sticks to reapply SPF protection. That said I have really enjoyed trying this one out and am excited to try out some other ones in the future.

Spf for on the go!

This is really a super handy spf that you can easily apply throughout the day. The Isntree spf is in stick form that you can unwrap. It has a texture that reminds me of balm and is shaped so that it can follow the structure of your face while applying. The spf does not leave a greasy layer on your skin and no white streaks or blemishes. Hyaluronic acid is also incorporated into the spf, so you can also moisturize your face every time you apply it. Thanks to its handy packaging, you can also easily carry it in your handbag wherever you go. And leaks? Nope that won't happen! Isn't it lovely? ☀️ For the girlies who like to wear a full face makeup look every day, this stick is not that useful. Unfortunately, you would just mix up your makeup with it!

Great for on the go!

The Isntree sun stick is really an invention for reapplying spf! Because of the stick shape, you can easily apply it to the face and neck and your hands are also not covered by greasy sunscreen. It doesn't feel greasy or thick on the skin. The only downside is that it can sting around the eyes.
