Overview
Oars + Alps' Clear Face Sunscreen Stick is an SPF 35 roll-on stick meant for travel, using avobenzone, homosalate and octisalate as active sunscreen ingredients plus vitamin E, in a 1.7oz spillproof format.
Built as a stick rather than a lotion, so it goes on hands-free and won't leak in a bag, matching its travel-size framing. Marketed water and sweat resistant for sports or beach use, and formulated without fragrance for sensitive skin.
- 1.7 oz travel-size stick
- SPF 35, broad application area
- Vegan, cruelty-free, fragrance-free
- Free of formaldehyde, octinoxate, oxybenzone, parabens, phthalates
Who it's for
Good for people who want a mess-free, on-the-go sunscreen for face and body they can keep in a gym bag or carry-on. Not the pick for anyone who wants SPF 50 or higher, or prefers a liquid or cream texture.
