FAQ

Does this product go on clear?

As athletes spending hours outside, we wanted to develop a sunscreen that not only worked great, but felt great going on as well. With the first swipes, you might notice a light white cast, depending on your skin tone. After application rub it gently into your skin.

Is this a mineral or a chemical sunscreen?

WTHR SPF 50 Sun Stick is a 100% mineral sunscreen, not a chemical sunscreen. We use non-nano zinc oxide, which provides broad spectrum UVA/UVB sun protection. It does not contain the chemical sunscreens Oxybenzone or Octinoxate.

Is the SPF 50 Sun Stick reef safe?

There is no FDA-regulated definition for this, so we choose "Hawaii Act 104 Reef Compliant" as our standard. All WTHR Protect products are formulated without the chemical sunscreens Oxybenzone and Octinoxate to meet the requirements of Hawaii Act 104 Reef Compliant regulation, which notes those ingredients’ negative impact on the marine environment.

Can I use sunscreen products on my baby?

Yes, you can! According to FDA guidelines, our sunscreen can be used on infants 6 months or older. 

WHY MICrOALGAE

We know that our environments change quickly and that affects our skin.

Microalgae are incredibly adaptable and resilient microorganisms, having evolved over the last 1.5 billion years to thrive in some of the harshest of environments.

We look to them to provide a better oil in support of skin health, created from nature and enabled by biotech.

Great sunscreen on-the-go

Been using this sun stick on long walks and runs. It's great no matter how hard you sweat! Super easy to throw in your bag and put on if you didn't apply before leaving the house. And most importantly, you're not gonna burn! Love it.

Easiest sunscreen I've used

This is the stuff. Not just because of the convenient shape of the sunstick but the actual product itself rolls on so easily.

Reliable in any conditions

Been using this on long runs and while I'm out on the water, outrigger canoe paddling. I've always been skeptical of putting too much sunscreen or product on with fear that it'd sweat it off and be irritating to the eyes. This sunscreen stays stuck to my face no matter what conditions I'm in (sweat, sun, salt water, etc.).

Would have given it 5 stars except that I'd love a liquid body sunscreen version of this!

The framebag companion

During a recent bikepacking epic in northern New Mexico, I found myself super space constrained and opted to carry only this sun stick as my sole form of sun protection.

Would I come to regret this move? Nope, not at all. A little bit of this sunstick goes a long way. Even better, it just STAYS ON. Perfect for any endurance activity where you're not going to stop and reapply all the time.

Cheers to WTHR for making something for those of us that like to suffer on the bike, but want to keep suffering for decades to come with healthy, protected skin! :)

I brought this stick with me on a river float and it was great. It was small enough to bring, easy to apply, and prevented me from getting sunburned despite being in the sun and water for hours.
