   matte
   My issue with sunscreen face stick is how sticky they look and feel on my skin and this was not the case with this product.It feels great on my skin and makes reapplication very easy!⭐️ 1 star – I don’t recommend it at all, poor quality, or it does not reflect the advertising.⭐️⭐️ 2 stars – I don’t recommend it, it has multiple faults, or is not priced where it should be for the product.⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3 stars – It’s passable. It has some faults, but the quality is adequate for what it is.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 stars – Product quite acceptable; it does what it promises.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars – Product that I totally recommend.

   Effective, convenient, contains octocrylene
   One of the most annoying things about packing for a beach vacation is bringing enough sunscreen with the liquid, gel and aerosol restrictions in carryon luggage. Extended beach vacations require a lot of sun protection, and I can never bring enough without checking a bag. Sunscreen sticks like this help solve that problem by providing effective protection in a solid, roll-on format.I like this product a lot. I’ve tried a few sunscreen sticks and this compares well with the best of them: it stays on even when you duck in the pool, has a high SPF, and doesn’t feel gross or greasy after application.That said, this contains octocrylene, which (controversially) some claim is linked to reef damage. You should consider the ingredients list when comparison shopping sunscreens when traveling to a destination where you plan to enter the ocean or other natural bodies of water.The price here is a little eye watering for the quantity you get – this is essentially a little travel-sized sampler stick, but priced as if it were a giant bottle. It’s a convenient form factor and has been a useful backup for my travels, but I can’t imagine spending this amount of my own money for this tiny amount of sunscreen.

   Great comfortable sun protector
   This Oars + Alps sunscreen face stick has turned out to be one of the most practical items I’ve picked up this summer. It offers SPF 50 protection, which is higher than what you get with most typical face sunscreen sticks. Despite its effectiveness, it doesn’t leave any greasy residue on the skin or make your face look shiny. It’s incredibly easy to apply and holds up well in the heat—it’s been quite hot in Southern California lately, but this sunscreen stick hasn’t shown any signs of melting.What I appreciate the most about this product, though, is its portability. Its compact size makes it simple to toss into any bag, purse, or backpack. This makes it ideal not only for everyday use but also for activities like hiking, backpacking, or biking. It’s perfect for any outdoor adventure. I’m really pleased with this sunscreen stick and will definitely be recommending it to friends and family!

   Not enough product for the price
   I love this brand, I’m traveling by plain thought I’d get a travel size version since I usually get the spray. I’ll be lucky to have any left by day 2 since I need to re apply after so long being at the beaches of Mexico. Each time I open it I have to be careful to it falling out its case.

   waste of money
   when I pulled the cap off for the first time, the entire stick of sunscreen came flying out and splatted on the ground. I couldn’t believe how small it was, only about 3/4 of an inch long. Nowhere near the length of the tube it’s packaged in.And it does feel quite greasy when you rub it on.

   works great, not greasy
   Wore this in the hot Florida sun and it worked great. It’s not greasy and it was definitely water and sweat resistant.

   Great sunscreen stick
   I really like that this sunscreen has an SPF of 50. I always aim for at least SPF 30 and above, so this fits that bill.I’m not always a big fan of putting on sunscreen, mainly because I don’t like the greasy type feeling. This doesn’t have that greasy feeling, I guess because it’s a stick instead of a liquid.I do like that this is easy to carry around, although it is a pretty small container. It hasn’t yet run out for me, so it does last a bit longer than I expected. I haven’t had any issues in terms of sunburns or anything since using it.
