the sunstick is non sticky, it is a lot less shiny matte than the abib airy sunstick, if you have oily skin, this sunstick is for you
While this sunscreen stick did irritate my skin and cause breakouts on my face, I’ve been absolutely loving using it on my neck!!
The skin on my face is super sensitive and acne prone, prone to fungal acne too and my face doesn’t seem to agree with most chemical uv filters. But my neck is a lot less sensitive and less prone to breakouts so neck is my go-to way of not wasting any products that Show more
