MDSolarSciences Solar Stick SPF 40

This is my absolute favorite for on-the-go protection. I keep it in my pocket during hikes for quick touch-ups on my nose and ears.

It’s a lifesaver for the part in my hair. I just swipe it along the line and I don't get a burnt scalp.

No scent and no mess. My hands stay clean, which is a huge plus when I'm out and about.

The texture is so smooth. Most mineral sticks feel like a crayon, but this glides on without pulling my skin.

I love that it’s completely transparent. No white cast at all, even on my darker skin tone.

Perfect for the eye area! It’s the only SPF that doesn't make my eyes sting when I sweat.

I use this on my kids’ faces because it’s so much faster than lotion and they don't fight me on it.

It has a beautiful matte finish. It actually works great as a primer under my makeup.

The size is perfect for a small clutch or a gym bag. I never leave the house without it.

I appreciate that it’s oil-free. I have acne-prone skin and this has never caused a single breakout.

Very water-resistant. I wore it during a triathlon and it stayed put through the swim and the run.

10/10 for the "blurring" effect. It makes my skin look instantly smoother and more even.

I love using this on the backs of my hands to prevent sunspots while I'm driving.

I keep one in my golf bag. It’s so easy to reapply between holes without getting my grip greasy.

Truly a clean formula. I feel good about using this on my sensitive skin every single day.

It doesn't melt in my bag, even in the summer heat. The packaging is very high-quality and sturdy.

My dermatologist recommended this specifically for my surgical scar to keep it protected from the sun.

It feels weightless. Once it’s on, you completely forget you’re wearing sunscreen.

Great for travel. Since it’s a solid, I don't have to worry about it leaking in my carry-on or the 3-ounce liquid rule.

The tint-free version is truly universal. It blends in perfectly regardless of your complexion.

I've tried many mineral sticks and this is by far the most elegant formula on the market.

Reliable, portable, and effective. It’s the one product I tell all my friends they need to buy.
