What the gurus are saying

Dermatologists praise this stick for reapplication, especially on hard-to-reach spots like the neck and back of the neck, and find it goes on sheer for an all-mineral formula. One expert notes it's fragrance-free and water-resistant, making it particularly suited to sensitive skin and children, it hydrates rather than mattifies and leaves minimal white cast. That means those with sensitive skin or anyone teaching kids to reapply sunscreen may find it genuinely encourages regular protection without irritation.

"CeraVe makes sunscreen sticks that I believe are water resistant and fragrance free, so more ideal for babies and kids that have sensitive skin at baseline. I find that sunscreen sticks are a great way of teaching kids how to apply sunscreen. It's a great way to encourage kids to put on sunscreen and also makes it easier for parents to reapply. This is going to be more nourishing and more hydrating. It doesn't really leave much of a white cast on my skin. If you're looking for one for kids this would be great. It can also be a good one to use on yourself if you have more sensitive skin or just looking for a mineral-based sunscreen stick that's also water resistant. It is going to be more on the hydrating side. It doesn't have a mattifying finish at all. It's fairly affordable."
