Turns into combination dehydrated skin in summer. - The small size makes it convenient to use anytime and easy to carry around. - Given the serious environmental issues these days, I particularly appreciate that this brand is environmentally conscious. - Despite being very sensitive to eye irritation, I experienced no discomfort at all. Thumbs up! - My biggest worry when using sunsticks is makeup pilling, but this absorbs well even when applied before touch-ups, allowing use without disturbing makeup. - The texture isn't heavy and doesn't feel excessively sticky, which I liked. - The compact size is great for carrying around and reapplying frequently.
Cons- The application feels a bit stiff. - The fragrance might be hit or miss (vanilla and white chocolate scent). - It's somewhat pricey for the amount you get. - After application, it doesn't leave a completely matte finish where hair won't stick to your skin.
TipSunscreen should always be reapplied every two hours. It's best to apply sunscreen first, then touch up with a sunstick!

Eco-friendliness From the packaging to the wrapping materials, everything was environmentally friendly when I received the delivery. The product itself is free from ingredients harmful to the environment (coral), which helps alleviate the guilt of using sunblock products in summer, despite their environmental impact. 2. Scent To me, it has a warm coconut and almond fragrance that makes applying it feel like an aromatherapy session. However, scent preferences can vary greatly, so those who dislike this type of fragrance might want to keep that in mind. 3. Size and Container Design It's compact and fits comfortably in one hand, making it highly portable. The twist-off cap is great for preventing potential disasters if it accidentally opens in your bag. 4. Skin Feel I have thin, sensitive skin, but true to its gentle ingredients, this product causes no irritation and feels mild. It's labeled as suitable for children 3 and up, and I genuinely feel it would be safe to use on kids.
Cons1. Application It spreads a bit thick, so you need to massage it in with your hands to feel confident about the coverage. 2. Finish The finish is more dewy and moisturizing than matte. Those who prefer a powdery finish or have oily skin might find it a bit sticky. Personally, I don't mind this, as I've found that products with a matte finish can sometimes leave a powdery residue that transfers to clothes. This aspect will likely come down to personal preference.
TipI usually only use sunsticks for my body, so I don't find it particularly inconvenient. It feels like it coats the skin, which might make it less likely to wash off during water activities and convenient for reapplication on the go.

Unlike mineral sunscreen sticks, it doesn't leave a white cast, making it great for reapplication over makeup. It doesn't feel like you're wearing nothing though - there's a noticeable glow after application. (In the second photo, the left arm is with the product, the right arm is without) - The texture, absorption, and post-application glow are similar to the famous Kahi Balm.
Cons- It tends to be on the sticky side. Not recommended for those who prefer a matte finish. - After applying it to my arms and neck, I later noticed yellow stains on the inside of my sleeves. - While I received this as part of The Hwahae Testers program, I noticed it's quite pricey. Given its small size and lack of standout benefits, I wouldn't spend my own money on it.
Tip- With its nourishing balm-like texture, it seems ideal for application when the skin feels tight or dry.

I love the luxurious design that fits perfectly in one hand. Unlike other sticks that are thin and wide, which is good for covering larger areas but can lead to applying less pressure, this stick has a consistent cylindrical shape. This allows you to apply a bit more pressure without discomfort, giving a feeling of better adherence to the skin. As someone with super sensitive skin, I really appreciate that it doesn't cause any eye irritation.
ConsIt seems difficult to achieve a completely matte finish when using only this sunstick. It's disappointing when the wind blows and your hair sticks to your face, making you look like seaweed. However, this seems to be a common issue with most sunsticks.
TipThe La Roche stick doesn't pill at all even when you apply other products over it. While it becomes less sticky over time, if you don't like that feeling, you can either apply a light base over it or simply reapply this product alone throughout the day. It's not drying, doesn't pill, and works hard to protect your skin - very good indeed!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, what I loved most was its compact size. It's perfect for carrying around, and being a stick format, you can apply it comfortably anytime. I also appreciated that it's a vegan cosmetic product. With all the environmental concerns these days, I've been interested in vegan beauty products, so this piqued my curiosity. When the delivery arrived, even the packaging gave off an eco-friendly vibe. The twist-up container means you can toss it in your bag without worrying about it opening accidentally. Unlike flip-top containers that sometimes pop open and make a mess in your bag, this one's worry-free. Being a stick, it applies a moisturizing layer smoothly. This makes it suitable for those with dry skin to use without any issues. Now that the sun's getting harsh, I plan to carry it around for on-the-go application.
ConsFirst off, I wasn't a fan of the scent. I'm sensitive to smells and prefer unscented or subtle fragrances, but this had quite a strong coconut or vanilla-like scent that was overwhelming to apply on my face. Also, probably due to its stick format, the texture is quite rich and tacky, which I don't think is suitable for summer. While the texture doesn't cause any deep dryness, it does take away that fresh, matte feeling. Considering summer humidity and sweat...
TipIt's great for carrying around and applying conveniently!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI used only the Clean Sun Stick on my face and body before makeup from June 1st to June 5th. Unlike other stick sunscreens that can pill or feel too thick under makeup, the La Roche sun stick surprisingly works well with cushion foundations. It helps set the base makeup, acting like a primer. When applied in circular motions, it even covers pores in the T-zone - amazing! The vanilla scent is totally my cup of tea. The cute, round case is compact, making it perfect for on-the-go touch-ups. Its slight sheen adds moisture to dry, flaky skin when patted on areas exposed by sleeveless tops. It's also great for the back of hands, arms, legs, and feet, and doesn't attract dust.
ConsIt doesn't leave a matte finish, and the fragrance might be a bit strong for those with sensitive skin.
TipIt's perfect for taming flyaways when you forget your hair product. You can even apply it to visible scalp areas along the hairline! It's moisturizing enough to double as a hand cream or cuticle balm. I'm using it as an all-purpose stick for various needs.

The cheerful yellow packaging is so cute! As a sunscreen stick enthusiast, I've tried many, but this one stands out with its transparent formula that applies smoothly without any white cast or pilling. It's perfect for my slightly sensitive combination dehydrated skin - no blemishes, long-lasting hydration, and it doesn't cake up when reapplying!
ConsThe downside for me personally is that I prefer sunscreen sticks with a powdery, matte finish, but this one has a slightly oily finish. It leaves a bit of a shiny look...? There's a slight stickiness, so you need to be careful not to get it in your baby hairs, which is a bit disappointing.
TipIf you apply it in two light layers and gently blot with oil blotting paper from the dollar store, you can achieve a more powdery finish.

It's not too thick, so it absorbs well. It has a vanilla scent, which might appeal to those who dislike the typical sunscreen stick smell.
ConsPersonally, I prefer the regular sunscreen scent over the artificial vanilla fragrance. While it absorbs well, it doesn't dry quickly and feels sticky. In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend it.
TipUsing powder after application might help reduce the tacky feeling.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis review is based on my experience using it on my face. For reference, I have dry and sensitive skin. First off, there's absolutely no white cast. This sunstick uses UV filters, which is neither organic nor inorganic sunscreen - it's my first time trying this type. Comparing it to others, the feel is more similar to organic sunscreens. After application, you don't get that typical stiffness of inorganic sunscreens. Compared to my current inorganic sunstick which applies quite stiffly, this one glides on more smoothly. It's not extremely soft, but it applies just right. Despite my dry skin, it does leave a slightly oily finish. Those with oily skin might find it a bit heavy for summer use. However, for my skin, I prefer this slight oiliness over an overly stiff texture. The quantity is generous. My current sunscreen is about 15g, but this one is 18.5g. Please refer to the second photo to see how much product you get. It doesn't cause any blemishes. I'm prone to breakouts with the wrong sunscreen, but this one doesn't cause any issues. I'll definitely keep using it on my face. I appreciate their environmental consciousness. I've been quite eco-conscious lately (TMI: I use shampoo bars), so I'm pleased that this product helps protect marine ecosystems. Summary: No white cast / Applies well / Slightly rich / Generous amount / No blemishes / Eco-friendly
ConsThe biggest downside is that it doesn't leave a matte finish, but feels a bit sticky after application. This didn't change even after some time. Because of this, I couldn't try it on my body. It has a scent that's like coconut oil with something added. I found it a bit stuffy and didn't like it. But I generally don't prefer sweet scents, so that might be why. The description mentions a vanilla scent, but I couldn't really tell. Summary: Sticky finish / Disliked the scent

For combination skin, it doesn't make your face excessively oily. There's no stinging sensation around the eyes. When applied to the body, it's less sticky than your typical sunstick. It's convenient to carry around.
ConsThe price is a bit high for the amount you get. The size is really quite small. I wish there was an indication to twist when opening the cap. It doesn't have a powdery finish, so it feels slightly sticky when applied to the body. The small head size makes it inconvenient to apply on the body. When I applied it to my face, my eyelids felt a bit tingly.
TipThis would be great for people who spend a lot of time outdoors and want something light to carry around for frequent reapplication. However, it might be inconvenient in terms of quantity and size for applying all over the body. I recommend this for people who like to reapply sunscreen on their face often.
