Mistaya Zen Zinc Non-Nano Organic SPF 30 Plus Sunscreen Stick - 0.6 oz (Pack of 2)

Really happy with this sunscreen. The price we purchased at was comparable if not lower than some of the other sticks we had tried off Amazon. It smells really good and rubs in a lot easier than the other sticks. I use this for my kids and keep one in the car for the times we forget before getting out of the house in the morning and it hasn't melted in the hot desert sun. Additionally, we are up at 5,000+ feet and they haven't been even the slightest red with this product. We spend an average of 4-5 hours a day outside hiking and playing and swimming and I don't have to reapply. Will purchase more when the time comes.Just in case it helps, I actually purchased this after my own research. I was NOT compensated in any way. (I get really annoyed with the reviewers who were compensated).

I use it for my lips mainly as I have extremely sensitive lips and they burn very easily. I haven't had full exposure to the sun yet, but have found that it isn't clear on my lips...it looks ghostly. Am hoping that it does work as I have used zinc in the past and it is the only thing that totally blocks the sun for me. It does have a bit of a funny taste to it but again if it works it would be worth it. Will try it out over the next week and will update review then.

It's a nice compact, easy to use option on vacation. I think it's a good price and the sticks last a long time. I think it's best for small areas like face, neck, hands etc. Also would work well allover for babies/small kids but not really efficient for allover coverage for an adult. That's with any sunscreen stick though. The only downside for me is that I wish it came in other options besides 30 bc I took the sticks to the Galapagos Islands and they just weren't strong enough, even with multiple reapplications. A great product overall and I'll definitely use them at the beach.

This sunscreen is scented like a great vacation! I am super pleased with the price and the quality. I first apply a thin layer of olive oil infused with ozone and then glide the stick around my face followed with Jan Marini mineral BBcream. It leaves a nice airbrushed finished that lasts all day.There is a slight white to the product which seems to almost disappear when warmed up... but if I was having photographs taken I would not wear this sunscreen as it might reflect the light and make my face pale (although this is untested, just a hunch). I love that it's organic and I intend on buying more. There are other expensive physical sunscreens I've come across (I am an esthetician) but this one is my go to choice as I recently had a microneedling treatment with PRP. Hope this helps.

I don't know how so many people were able to say that this smells good. I just couldn't stand the smell. Some people describe it as a vanilla scent, others as play-dough - maybe it's a form of rorschach test for odors! But for me, it was unbearable and I stopped using it after two attempts. (It's also chalky-looking on the skin & hard to spread...)

did not work for our family. my fair skin daughter was burned.,

We participated in a scavenger hunt through the city of Savannah, GA in July. Needless to say to those of you from the South, it was hot and sunny. My 7yo daughter and I used this on our face over the two days we were walking the city and neither of us have even a hint of a burn. We also visited the beach for a couple hours on our trip and again used on our face and again, great results. I am so happy with this product. It was easy to use, rubs on and in easily, great size to take on the go for easy access for reapplication. We sweated pretty heavily in the hot summer sun and dripping humidity, reapplied every two hours and had no trouble! Love this product and will never run out!

The bad: it's thick & pasty and the smell is not pleasant (which isn't bad for adults, but the kids don't like wearing it). Applying it is a little more intensive than I would like for a stick sunscreen- since it's thick and pasty, you need to spread it around with your fingers/hand in order to apply it. The good: it's a nice size for carrying in your purse or sports bag.
