I purchased this sun stick slong with 2 other sunscreens though the Ready Set Glow Campaign from Stylekorean where you can purchase 3 items for $9.99.
This Matte Sun Stick was developed with Ramón (@glowbyramon on Instagram) who happens to be a cosmetic chemist. It is a non-greasy sun stick best for oily or combination skin types.

My Experience: I really wanted to try this sunscreen as I follow Ramón on Instagram and enjoy his content. I really wanted to try this sun stick because I love the BOJ Relief Sun, and even though my skin is more dry to normal, I thought it would be great to use the stick for reapplication during the day.
Along with the hanbang ingredients mentioned above, this Sun Stick has an oil-controlling silica powder to help absorb sebum & oil.
This sunscreen has no Niacinamide, which is a nice change from others I’ve tried recently.
It glides on smoothly & leaves a satiny matte finish. It has no white cast, no scent & didn’t burn or sting my eyes. I do like that it’s travel friendly & easy to use for reapplying during the day. I use the BOJ Relief Sun as my base sunscreen in the morning, then use this while I’m out and about. It doesn’t smudge makeup and isn’t at all sticky.
I definitely would recommend for combination or oily skin types, but I think it would work for everyone. I know I plan to use this again in the summer when I get a little shiny in the t-zone, and weather is more humid and hot.
