Love the ingredients; be sure to rub it in after applying
I love having a sunscreen stick handy with me in my backpack, and this stick fits the bill. While this stick does apply OK and the product can be smoothed out and rubbed into the skin easily, it did crumble a bit and applied in tiny chunks in places (basically, it doesn’t apply totally smooth – it did on our foreheads and noses, but not on our cheeks, temples or chins). However, as long as you rub it in, which you most likely will do anyway and it does rub in well, you’ll be covered. There was no white cast with it (big YAY!) and my fair-skinned son’s face was fine after a 3-hour morning bike ride through Cades Cove. I’m more olive-skinned, so I’m less likely to burn in the mornings than my son, but I feel like it did stay put despite the large amount of sweating I did the last hour of the ride as it neared 11:30 am. The smell is sweet – very much like shea butter (which is an ingredient along with a variety of fruit oils) – and I don’t think it’s off-putting at all. I feel like despite the slight application issue, this is a great sunscreen considering its ingredients, non-toxic rating, natural scent, and that it works well. I will most likely purchase again.The photos I’ve included are the container, and the sunscreen applicator tip, which shows that it’s uneven because it doesn’t apply totally smoothly on the face. The two of my hand show it after direct application and then after it’s rubbed in (no white cast!!!).

Great sunscreen.
The Zinc Mineral Sunscreen Stick may not be flawless, but it outperforms its competitors in many aspects. While there is a minor downside—leaving a slight white mark that requires manual redistribution—its positives outweigh this issue. Although it doesn’t fully absorb into the skin like high-quality creams, it’s gentle, non-irritating, and provides excellent protection. Additionally, it’s scent-free, feels natural, doesn’t harden or cake, and lasts for an extended period. I personally use it during outdoor activities like sailing in the summer and skiing in the winter, and I find it to be the best sunscreen product I’ve ever used.

Easy to apply, no sunburns here!
I have been using clear zinc sunsticks for years, but the one I had been using has been discontinued. So I took a chance and ordered this one. The first one I received did not spread easily, it was almost like it was dried out. I realize now, reading other reviews, that it was part of the bad batch. I ordered a few more and they are fantastic. It goes on easily and it is easy to spread around. I use it on my face, lips, ears and under my chin. It doesn’t melt in the sun and heat, which is a huge bonus, since I am a scuba diver and keep one in my dry box when we are diving. Others have mentioned this but it is not completely “clear”. It is white when you put it on and you can smear it around to where the white isn’t as obvious but my face definitely has a white cast after applying. But that is fine with me, the white is what protects your face from the sun! I actually wear it extra thick for that reason, I don’t care how I look, I would rather not get burned and get skin cancer. The stick form is what I love, creams and lotions don’t do well in heat and sun. This is portable, doesn’t melt and protects my face, I can’t ask for any more than that! If i have one complaint, it would be the cost, my other sunstick was $3 cheaper per stick, this one is now almost $10 per stick.

Excellent for specific limited uses
Purchased because I needed an easy to apply physical only stick that my daughter could apply during play in first grade. We use this only as back up for what I put on her myself in mornings tho that doesn’t last as long as needed hence the need for this stick. It does go on clear but a previous review was correct we found in noting that it is like beeswax It stays sticky for a long time on the skin. We can’t rub it in becaude it doesn’t spread easily so we have to pat it and our child has no patience for that so it’s now only used for ears nose fingers lips and touc ups. It does have a natural odor to it which is pleasant and does disapate after a few minutes of wear. I wore it only on a car trip for five hours. It took almost an hour to not be terribly sticky to touch. It didn’t run in the heat and stayed great in place. I had no redness at the end of the trip even forgetting To reapply so I was pleased for that. Tho it’s not used as intended For a primary go to sunblock all the pros lead me to give the four stars. It’s a nice thinner stick which we like tho some might not see it as getting as much as one might assume. However read the description weight and info well as it is small about half the size of my hand but perfect for small hands to use. We used it also on eyelids for myself first to test and I had no issue with it melting or going in my eyes or migrating at all. I still choose not to use it on the eyes of my child but would not hesitate to use it on a day at the beach or pool where the reflection of water hits eyes hard. Goes great under neath the eyes to protect that area well too. For the ease and protection it offers around eyes I would definitely recommend it.

Compact and Clean Ingredients
This sunscreen stick is rated well on my Yuka app, which gives me peace of mind about the ingredients. It’s the perfect size to keep in my purse and super convenient for reapplying throughout the day.

This is the size of a lipstick, and you can’t return the product. I made a mistake not verifying the size, why should you!

Muy satisfecha con este protector solar para la cara. Máxima protección. Fácil de aplicar y de absorción rápida. Sólo usamos protectores minerales y este nos ha gustado mucho. Lo volveremos a comprar

Es muy bueno, cubre muy bien y resiste el agua por bastante tiempo. La presentación un poco pequeña para mi gusto. Puedes repartirlo por tu cara, es suave y no quedas blanca con una capa gruesa. Lo volvería a comprar.

I absolutely LOVE the Babo Botanicals sports stick zinc suncream. It provides great protection and goes on really clear especially for zinc sunscreen. I got it for me and my children to try and now I find it hard to use any other suncream on their faces. My sons love putting it on – I think they think they’re getting a face message. It makes applying sunscreen so much faster and precise and as they enjoy it, I don’t have to battle them. I’m pleased that it’s non nano zinc as it means it’s better for the environment and hopefully better for my children as well.It is definitely on the expensive side so it’s not something I use all the time but it’s great for when we’re out in the sun.I let my friend try it who normally doesn’t wear suncream for fear of ruining her make up and she actually loved it as much as I did and got some for herself.
