Nature Republic California Aloe Fresh Powdery Sun Stick SPF 50+

I almost did not purchase this sun stick because nowhere on the listing nor in the product images nor on the product itself and not even on the official website for the product were the ingredients listed!! This felt so sketchy to me; why would you not include that? Finally, I found the ingredient breakdown on a third party website but had to do digging. I found nothing of concern in the product list, but what are people supposed to think if it appears to be hidden? The ingredients are on the box the sun stick comes in and are as follows: Active ingredients: Homosalate 9% (Sunscreen) Octocrylene 9% (Sunscreen) Ethlhexyl Salicylate 4.5% (Sunscreen) Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane 2.9% (Sunscreen) Inactive ingredients: Polyethylene, Propylheptyle carprylate, dimethicone, silica, isoropyl palmitate, methyl methacrylate crosspolymer, polymethylsilsequixoane, dicaprylyl carbonate, vinyl dimethicone/methicone silsesquioxane crosspolymer, acrylates copolymer, ozokerite, fragrance, lauryl Peg-8 dimethicone, dehydroacetic acid, polyglyceryl-2 triisostearate, tocopherol, yellow 5 lake, water, sea water, butylene clycol, phenoxyethanol, aloe barabadensis extract, hibiscus rosa-sinensis flower/leaf extract, morinda citrifolia extract, pentylene clycol, 1, 2-hexanediol, caprylyl glycol, ethylhexyglycerin It is worth noting that these ingredients differ somewhat from the version of this product sold in Asian countries, so if you have used other versions of this product this version may not seem the same. You can cross reference the differences on the inkeedecoder website. Okay, with that said, (and I do hope the brand is better about listing the ingredients in their product listings in the future,) I do like this product. It goes on very smoothly, doesn't leave a cast, and has a very pleasant slightly-floral slightly-citrus scent. The stick contains ingredients that have a primer-like effect on the skin and give a smooth appearance. Previously I have used AHC's sun stick (which I also liked) and this one feels slightly less greasy after application than that one and I also prefer this scent a tiny bit more. Sun sticks are an amazing option for when putting sun screen on feels like a chore or you hate the texture of a traditional sunscreen.

I love this stick!!! The scent is light and pleasent. It goes on so smooth! So much better then other stick sun blocks I have tried. I like the sticks for travel and leaving in my hot car while I work before going to the beach and this one is Perfect. I do not really burn and I am out in the sun a lot so I can not say how good it works as a block but I have not had any red areas. My skin feels great with this one It is not sticky or oily. I think this is going to be my New go to sun stick to buy.

This is really handy to carry around and touch up throughout the day and it doesn't have that typical sunscreen smell to it. The best thing for me, however, is that this works on my oily skin. My entire face is oily, not just my t zone, and this leaves a powdery, silky finish with no shine and blurs my pores. No white cast and no chalky look, either. This also does not migrate into my eyes throughout the day and I've had no issues with stinging like I usually do with typical sunscreens . It works well under my mineral powder foundation or by itself and reapplies nicely throughout the day. I will buy this again!

This is one of my favorite sunscreen sticks. I’ve been gravitating toward Korean skincare lately, and this has made me a big Nature Republic fan. Texture: Unlike many sunscreens I’ve tried, this one isn’t greasy. The powdery formula goes in smoothly and leaves a soft, velvety film instead of a slick, shiny layer. It also doesn’t settle into creases or emphasize fine lines and wrinkles, which has been a problem I’ve had with other sunscreens, especially on my face. Application: The stick format makes it quick and messy-free. There’s no rubbing lotion between your hands, and it goes on evenly. It also works over makeup, so it’s easy to reapply during the day without ruining your look. Family approved: it’s so easy to use that the boys in my family have started using it too. My husband even keeps one in his golf bag for reapplying on the course, which says a lot, because he’s never been big on sunscreen. If you want a lightweight, non-greasy SPF that’s easy to apply and reapply, I highly recommend this one. I’ll keep buying it!

By far the best sunscreen I’ve ever used! I hate wearing sunscreen. It’s always oily and gross and everything sticks to you. I’m fair skinned though and burn easily so I have to wear sunscreen if I’m in the sun or outdoors for any period of time. Usually, the greasy feeling ruins whatever I’m trying to experience for the day. This sunscreen is truly powder fresh! Rolls on easily, not greasy at all, smells good, prevents burning, is water proof, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! I just bought another two-pack. My only complaint is that I can only find this in a small travel or trial size. Which I do appreciate for carrying in my purse. But I also want to buy it in a bigger stick! Highly recommend, especially if you usually avoid wearing sunscreen because you don’t like how it feels.

This goes on with ease and a light scent! Worked well to protect my skin.

I really like using this in a pinch. I use it in the back of my hands, tattoos and face. It sorta burns my eyes if I put it too close. Smells nice. A soft powdery feel but still a “residue” to it but not bad. I’m very picky about sunscreen.

Finally a mineral sunscreen with no white cast, easy application, and that works! Great for the planet, no mess (you don't need to rub it in with your hands), and great for your skin. It doesn't feel greasy at all and it makes me forget I have sunscreen on. SPF is effective as described.

Es muy buen producto, yo lo probé hace tiempo, pero si está algo elevado el precio pero vale la pena. Deja una sensación suave en la piel.
