Reviews

Love the shape

"I love the shape of this product. Other sun sticks are square but this tapers at each end, making it incredible easy to spread over cheeks and around my nose and mouth. I never feel like there’s a missed spot. It truly goes on clear, and doesn’t make me break out."

— Ashlee (5/5)

love the smell and the way it feels

"I got this sunscreen because I have the unseen sunscreen and the unseen sunscreen stick, both unfortunately easily travel to my eyes and burn! This play stick however, does not! Its so easy to apply to my kids and smells so good!"

— Amanda L. (5/5)

Great sunscreen, but disappointing packaging quality

"I I really wanted to love this sunscreen because, in terms of the actual formula and sun protection, I’ve had a great experience. It hasn’t caused any breakouts or irritation, and I genuinely enjoyed using it. Unfortunately, I’ve had multiple issues with the packaging. The sunscreen stick itself broke unexpectedly the second time I took it to the beach. I initially gave the product the benefit of the doubt and thought maybe I had somehow caused it, even though I don’t think that’s normal for a sunscreen stick that is less than a month old. It got sandy, but I cleaned it and was able to carefully put it back together. Now, however, the blue ink/printing on the packaging has started transferring and staining everything in my beach makeup bag. As you can see in the photo, it stained several of my other products and the bag itself. I’m honestly really disappointed because these products are specifically meant to be used and carried in sunny, beach environments. I would expect the packaging to withstand normal beach use without the printing melting or transferring onto other items. I really like the sunscreen itself, but the packaging quality has been extremely disappointing, especially considering the price and the fact that I purchased it less than a month ago"

In love!

"My kids love it. It’s easy to apply and doesn’t sting their eyes. It’s definitely a must-have for our summer kit."

— Camillie Q. (5/5)

GET THIS!

"Sunscreen has never been easier! It goes on easy and fast! I generally use this on my hands, but if I feel like I need to reapply, I will use it on my face too! I keep in in my everyday bag and can quickly apply at a red light before it turns green."

— Nicole (5/5)

Goes on nice, but leaves greasiness

"I'll use this on our kids as it applies smooth and it's easy to use. However, my husband and I both agreed its application leaves a lasting greasiness and not in a nice glowy way. I've purchased other sticks that are better IMO."

— Sara (4/5)

My kids use it!

"My kids love this sunblock and can apply it easily and quickly to their faces and sometimes arms if we are in a hurry and need coverage. It’s small enough to throw in my purse so I always have it with me."

— Kelly R. (5/5)

The best face stick

"Seriously the best face stick! Goes on smooth without too much pressure on sensitive skin. Smells great. No white sheen on your face."

— Shannon M. (5/5)

Perfect for Travel

"Love this sunscreen and bought this stick to take on our trip to Italy so it’s always on hand and fits perfectly in my day bag."

— Christine T. (5/5)

Love it

"Smooth and easy! My whole family loves it."

— Anna B. (5/5)

Q&A

Does this make your face look shiny? I used neutragena's spf 60 stick but it made my face look super shiny like I was sweating
Our PLAY Everyday Stick SPF 50 is recommended for normal, combination, dry or oily skin. It glides easily onto skin and feels weightless and non-greasy so it does not have that shine effect!
