Title: Excellent sunscreen / skin cream
Review: Having used one of the most well known / commonly used skin care and sunscreen products for years, I developed a severe allergic reaction to its use on my skin. This resulted in me seeing a dermatologist as the reaction was so severe. He suggested using Aveeno for skin care and a rather expensive brand of sunscreen (no, he wasn’t affiliated or sponsored by them!).£50 later and with a ridiculously small bottle of sunscreen, I again suffered an extreme reaction to the product; meanwhile, Aveeno products used daily were great.I stumbled across this product and it’s been great. No problems whatsoever.Surprised, as are other reviewers, that this comes as a stick. After initial applications – especially on my face when I looked like a member of KISS – I’ve learnt to apply a small amount on the area, on my hands and to rub it in. After a brief “damp” period it dries well. Nice feeling on the skin afterwards. Reapplied after 2 hours as directed and it appears to work well.Price could be prohibitive, but, ultimately, you pay for what you get and what price skin / sun care? The stick is unusual in such a product, but it goes on and covers well.Personally, as someone who has encountered skin problems in the form of allergic reactions, this is great. Highly recommended – as are all Averno products.

Title: Leaves a white cast but it works
Review: I love this product. I have an annoying combination of very sensitive skin that reacts to most sunscreens and melasma – hyperpigmentation that gets worse with sun exposure. This sunscreen does leave a white cast but that’s true of all non tinted mineral sunscreens due to the ingredients. I like the stick format and I leave it by the door (along with a sun hat) so I never forget to put it on before I go outdoors and it’s not slimy or runny. I’ve been using it for a few months now and I haven’t had any reaction to it at all, it hasn’t broken me out or irritated my skin. It’s not cheap but it works for me.

Title: Does the job
Review: Use to use another brand, but was stopped being made, this is great for protection but does leave skin with a white sheen, have to rub in very well, but still seems to leave alittle.

Title: Great for sensitive skin
Review: I have sensitive skin but haven’t had a breakout while using this.It also leaves a slight white cast. I’m pasty anyway so this looks like a glow on my skin but im not sure how it would look on those with tanned or darker skin tones.

Title: non-greasy and feels good
Review: Really like this sunscreen stick. It’s a bit big and heavy for my day-to-day handbag so I’d only bring it when I travel. I am impressed with how non-greasy, lightweight and comfortable it feels after applying it. I also have no reactions to the ingredients. I’d definitely buy this again.

Review: For reference I have fair to light skin, and sensitive eyes. I always need mineral sunscreen otherwise it burns my eyes. I’ve tried a handful of sunscreens. And I was surprised by this one. Glides pretty smoothly, and the least amount of white cast I’ve noticed with these sticks. I like this better than the neutrogena sheer mineral stick. Great for pool days or hot days because it’s also water resistant! Buying more 🙂

Review: It is ok. It does leave a little white mark on the skin. But it goes away a once you spread well with your hands.

Review: I like this sunscreen because it is of mineral origin, and as indicated it is for sensitive skin, my skin is sensitive and can’t handle some creams but with this sunscreen I don’t have any problems. The only detail is that the face looks a little white, but for me that is not a problem because what I am looking for is that it protects me more than the fact that it looks white or not.

Review: I’m writing this review with the remains of an itchy, peeling sunburn on the back of my upper arm, so…there’s that. However, I’m pretty sure it was more my fault than the sunscreen’s. If you’ve never used stick sunscreen before, here is the vital fact you need to know: unlike liquid or spray sunscreens, stick sunscreens don’t spread out when you rub them into your skin. The sunscreen stays exactly, precisely in the exact, precise spot you applied it. Stick sunscreen is faster to apply than liquid and less messy than either liquids or sprays, but you must be vigilant about applying it in smooth, overlapping strokes. If you miss a spot, you’re toast–or at least you’ll end up with a well-toasted spot on your skin.But if you don’t miss a spot, this sunscreen works. I was out in the sun for several hours a day for several days in a row on vacation, waaaaayyy more sun than I usually get, as I’m the droniest of office drones.. And I’m fair-skinned and burn pretty easily. But with this sunscreen, I didn’t get any burns except in the spot I apparently missed. (For the record, though, I used liquid sunscreen on my face and ears, as it’s easier to get liquid sunscreen into little crevices such as behind your ears.)In response to a common complaint about this sunscreen, yes, it will leave a white cast on your skin. That’s because it’s mineral sunscreen. To oversimplify the difference between chemical and mineral sunscreens, chemical sunscreens absorb UV rays and convert them to heat, while mineral sunscreens physically block UV rays from your skin. The active ingredient in mineral sunscreens is a bright-white mineral compound, either zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. The particles of these bright-white compounds act like tiny mirrors to reflect the sun away from your skin. In short, mineral sunscreens pretty much have to be bright-white in order to do their job, because no other color will reflect sunlight as efficiently.Obviously, you’ll have to decide for yourself how much the white cast of mineral sunscreens bothers you. If you decide you can’t stand it, use chemical sunscreen instead. Personally, I decided not to worry about it. I figure that if people see me at the beach with a ghostly white tinge to my skin, most of them will be smart enough to realize that I look that way because I just applied sunscreen and not because I’m actually a ghost. (And given a choice between being mistaken for a ghost and getting sunburned, I’ll go with being mistaken for a ghost.)
