Here's what our community thinks
Beauty of Joseon Matte Sun Stick: Mugwort + Camelia SPF 50 PA++++ 48 ingredients
I love this for secondary application. I don't feel confident in getting an even application with the stick alone, so I start with the BOJ Relief Sun in the morning and use the stick for reapplication during the day. I love the matte effect and how soft my skin feels. The small size slips easily into my purse. I'm obsessed with BOJ sunscreens!
Balances oily skin
My skin type is redness-prone, oily, and acne-prone.
The sunstick has a satin finish. It’s quite effective at absorbing facial oils that accumulate as the day progresses. I noticed less redness in my skin tone, likely from the mugwort and camelia.
Have used the BoJ Rice Sunscreen, Bioré UV watery essence, COSRX aloe sunscreen, IsnTree Hyaluronic Aid Airy Sunstick, Nivea Show more

Scent: No scent
Performance: Calm my acne and clean my pores.
Pros: Easy application. Wash off easily.
Cons: Can't cover completely on nose area and dented scar. You will still need to use finger to smear it for full coverage in the end. Contain PEG.
WRP/WNRP: Definitely WRP but not this stick mask, get the jar packaging one instead!
