Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Tocopherol (also known as Vitamin E) is a common antioxidant used to help protect the skin from free-radicals and strengthen the skin barrier. It's also fat soluble - this means our skin is great at absorbing it.
Vitamin E also helps keep your natural skin lipids healthy. Your lipid skin barrier naturally consists of lipids, ceramides, and fatty acids. Vitamin E offers extra protection for your skin’s lipid barrier, keeping your skin healthy and nourished.
Another benefit is a bit of UV protection. Vitamin E helps reduce the damage caused by UVB rays. (It should not replace your sunscreen). Combining it with Vitamin C can decrease sunburned cells and hyperpigmentation after UV exposure.
You might have noticed Vitamin E + C often paired together. This is because it is great at stabilizing Vitamin C. Using the two together helps increase the effectiveness of both ingredients.
There are often claims that Vitamin E can reduce/prevent scarring, but these claims haven't been confirmed by scientific research.

Round Lab Birch Moisturizing Sun Stick SPF 50+ PA++++ 51 ingredients
Love, love, LOVE this sunscreen stick. It glides on smooth, doesn't feel oily, goes on invisible, and feels so moisturizing. I will say, it does sting open wounds on the skin, I think it's probably the birch, so I'd be careful applying this on open acne marks. But overall, it is the best sunscreen stick I've tried, and is so easy to pop into a purse to carry for easy reapplication of sun Show more
pretty great sun stick. it has a nice texture. however, when reapplying over makeup, it does seem to make your makeup very streaky. if you’re using this out in public for reapplication over makeup, i’d advise bringing a makeup brush so that you can fix the streaks.

I wanted a sunscreen stick that I can keep in my bag for reapplication. I haven’t used this sunscreen much, but I can already tell I don’t like it. At first, I was taken aback by the color of it, which there is none; it’s transparent. That’s good, it meant there won’t be a white cast. However, after I put it on I was put off by how greasy and oily it is, and in turn, how greasy and oily it made me Show more
Nice and light. But I don’t think the sun protection is the best.
