Aveeno Positively Mineral Sunscreen Stick

I love this product. I have an annoying combination of very sensitive skin that reacts to most sunscreens and melasma - hyperpigmentation that gets worse with sun exposure. This sunscreen does leave a white cast but that's true of all non tinted mineral sunscreens due to the ingredients. I like the stick format and I leave it by the door (along with a sun hat) so I never forget to put it on before I go outdoors and it's not slimy or runny. I've been using it for a few months now and I haven't had any reaction to it at all, it hasn't broken me out or irritated my skin. It's not cheap but it works for me.

Having used one of the most well known / commonly used skin care and sunscreen products for years, I developed a severe allergic reaction to its use on my skin. This resulted in me seeing a dermatologist as the reaction was so severe. He suggested using Aveeno for skin care and a rather expensive brand of sunscreen (no, he wasn’t affiliated or sponsored by them!).£50 later and with a ridiculously small bottle of sunscreen, I again suffered an extreme reaction to the product; meanwhile, Aveeno products used daily were great.I stumbled across this product and it’s been great. No problems whatsoever.Surprised, as are other reviewers, that this comes as a stick. After initial applications - especially on my face when I looked like a member of KISS - I’ve learnt to apply a small amount on the area, on my hands and to rub it in. After a brief “damp” period it dries well. Nice feeling on the skin afterwards. Reapplied after 2 hours as directed and it appears to work well.Price could be prohibitive, but, ultimately, you pay for what you get and what price skin / sun care? The stick is unusual in such a product, but it goes on and covers well.Personally, as someone who has encountered skin problems in the form of allergic reactions, this is great. Highly recommended - as are all Averno products.

Use to use another brand, but was stopped being made, this is great for protection but does leave skin with a white sheen, have to rub in very well, but still seems to leave alittle.

Works well.

Great for reapplying sunscreen but you can really feel it on your face, it's incredibly greasy to the point I want to get to wash it off.It also has a horrible whitecast even if you rub it in,I won't be buying this again aha 𖹭It's a good sun stick if you're not sensitive to the feeling of grease on your face(Usually the first application is alright but when you reapply it for the second time onwards it gets quite irritating (in my experience))

Excellent purchase very happy with product

I have sensitive skin but haven't had a breakout while using this.It also leaves a slight white cast. I'm pasty anyway so this looks like a glow on my skin but im not sure how it would look on those with tanned or darker skin tones.

For sensitive skin value for money
