Product details

EltaMD UV Stick is a portable, 100% mineral SPF 50+ sunscreen stick with zinc oxide that provides broad-spectrum, water-resistant protection for face and body without white cast.

Compact and TSA-friendly, this 1.3 oz sunscreen stick is formulated for quick, mess-free reapplication on the go. The clear zinc oxide formula offers broad-spectrum UVA/UVB defense while remaining fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, and suitable for both children and adults. Designed to absorb quickly and resist water and sweat for up to 80 minutes, it keeps skin protected during outdoor play, sports, and travel.

How does this stick protect my skin during outdoor activities?

The EltaMD UV Stick uses zinc oxide, a physical blocker, to scatter and reflect harmful UVA and UVB rays. Because it is mineral-based, it starts protecting immediately upon application and includes antioxidants to address environmental stressors.

  • Broad-spectrum SPF 50+ mineral protection
  • Zinc oxide active ingredient for physical UV blocking
  • Antioxidants included to help defend against free radicals
  • Water- and sweat-resistant up to 80 minutes for active days

Will it leave a white cast on darker skin tones?

EltaMD formulated this stick to deliver a transparent finish that blends without the typical chalky residue of some mineral sunscreens. The glide-on stick melts into skin for subtle coverage suitable across many complexions.

  • Clear application designed to minimize visible white cast
  • Smooth, non-greasy texture that absorbs quickly
  • Works on both face and body for consistent appearance
  • Fragrance-, dye-, and paraben-free to avoid irritation

Is this safe and convenient for kids and travel?

Yes — the compact 1.3 oz size fits carry-on bags and purses, and the hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic formula is suitable for children and sensitive skin. The stick design speeds up reapplication during outings and pool time.

  • TSA-friendly 1.3 oz tube for easy travel and day trips
  • Gentle formula formulated for sensitive and family use
  • Mess-free application ideal for quick touch-ups
  • Water-resistant up to 80 minutes for swimming and sweating

How should I use the EltaMD UV Stick for best results?

Apply liberally to all exposed skin and reapply every two hours or after swimming, toweling off, or heavy sweating. The stick is especially handy for targeted areas like the nose, cheeks, ears, and lips’ outer edges.

  • Twist up and glide across exposed areas until skin looks evenly covered
  • Reapply at least every two hours or after water exposure
  • Use as a supplement to body sunscreen for thorough coverage
  • Store in a cool place and replace if texture changes significantly

Who is this for: Families, travelers, outdoor athletes, and anyone seeking a quick, reliable mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin will appreciate the EltaMD UV Stick. It’s tailored to people who want physician-backed sun protection in a compact, easy-to-use format without fragrance or greasy residue. Whether you need fast reapplication for kids at the pool, a handbag-sized protector for daily commutes, or a travel-safe stick for hiking and beach days, this product offers practical, broad-spectrum defense.
