Sun Bum Mineral SPF 50 Face Stick Sunscreen — 0.45 oz Travel Size, Water-Resistant & Vitamin E, Hawaii 104 Compliant

Sun Bum Mineral SPF 50 Face Stick is a zinc-based, travel-sized stick sunscreen that provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection in a convenient, matte-finish applicator.

This compact face stick is formulated to sit on the skin’s surface and reflect UVA and UVB rays, offering water-resistant defense in a small 0.45 oz package. The 2026 mineral formula avoids octinoxate and oxybenzone to meet Hawaii 104 compliance, and it includes vitamin E for lightweight skin nourishment. Designed for quick reapplication, the stick is ideal when you need fast sun protection without greasy residue.

How does the face stick protect my skin during outdoor activities?

The zinc oxide mineral formula creates a physical barrier that helps block harmful sun rays rather than absorbing into skin. With SPF 50 and water resistance, it’s meant for everyday outdoor use, beach days, and short swims when reapplied as directed.

• Broad-spectrum SPF 50 using zinc oxide for UVA/UVB coverage
• Water-resistant—reapply after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating
• Leaves a matte finish to reduce shine on the face
• Hawaii 104 compliant: no oxybenzone or octinoxate

Will this face stick feel heavy or leave a greasy film?

The Sun Bum mineral stick is formulated to be lightweight and leave a subtle matte sheen instead of an oily layer. Because mineral products sit on top of the skin to reflect light, a faint white cast can appear but blends down with gentle rubbing or patting.

• Silky texture designed for comfortable daytime wear
• Matte finish minimizes shiny or oily appearance
• Normal white tint from mineral zinc oxide—blends with skin
• Added vitamin E helps maintain skin hydration without heaviness

How do I apply and reapply the face stick for best results?

Apply liberally to clean, dry skin at least 15 minutes before sun exposure. For full protection, smooth across your face and any exposed areas, then reapply after water exposure or every two hours. The stick format makes touch-ups quick and pocket-friendly.

• Apply 15 minutes before sun exposure for maximum effectiveness
• Reapply after 80 minutes of swimming/sweating and every 2 hours otherwise
• Use direct from the stick for targeted coverage—nose, cheeks, ears
• Carry the 0.45 oz size for travel and on-the-go reapplication

Is this sunscreen safe for reef areas and sensitive skin?

The formula avoids oxybenzone and octinoxate, aligning with regulations intended to protect marine environments like coral reefs. Its mineral-based ingredients often suit sensitive skin better than some chemical sunscreens, though individual reactions can vary.

• Hawaii 104 compliant—formulated without two reef-harming chemicals
• Zinc oxide acts as a physical blocker often chosen for sensitive skin
• Cruelty-free and gluten-free formulation
• Contains vitamin E to help soothe and support skin barrier

Who is this for: Sun Bum Mineral SPF 50 Face Stick is aimed at active outdoor lovers, travelers, and anyone who wants a compact, easy-to-use mineral sunscreen for daily face protection. It’s a practical choice if you prefer a non-greasy finish, need a reef-friendly formula, or want a pocket-sized option for quick reapplications during beach days, hikes, and commutes.
