Good:
I’ve been using the Beauty of Joseon Sun Stick for a while now, and I have to say, it’s been a game-changer, especially for my daily skincare routine. First off, I love how easy it is to apply. The stick format makes it super convenient, especially when I’m on the go or need to reapply quickly. No mess, no fuss!
The texture is another win. It feels incredibly lightweight on the skin—no greasy residue or sticky feeling, which is something I’ve noticed with other sunsticks. It has a matte finish, so it works well under makeup, keeping my skin looking fresh without making it shiny. Plus, it’s enriched with great ingredients like rice extract and grain ferment, which help nourish my skin while protecting it from UV rays.
Lastly, the compact size makes it perfect for my purse. I love having it with me for quick touch-ups throughout the day, especially during those hot days when you know you should reapply SPF.
While I do love a lot about this product, there are a few things I noticed that might not work for everyone. If you have super dry skin, you might find that the sun stick can cling to dry patches, so I recommend pairing it with a good moisturizer beforehand.
Another thing is, while it’s great for reapplication, I find that if I’m wearing makeup, reapplying over a full face can sometimes disturb the makeup a little, especially around areas like the nose or chin.
Lastly, although the size is convenient for carrying, I feel like it runs out pretty quickly, especially if you’re using it daily and applying a generous amount. So, you might need to repurchase more frequently than with a traditional sunscreen.
