To preface, my skin type is normal. I bought this product when it was on sale bc I had heard great things about this one and sunscreen sticks were trending at the time. I wanted something that would make reapplying sunscreen throughout the day easy bc I work in a building that has large windows. Its slim size made it convenient to carry around and bc it was a stick form, I wouldn't have to worry about touching my face during applications.

To me, this product is greasy. It doesn't settle into skin well and it definitely doesn't layer. I thought this would be good for reapplications throughout the day, but I can feel it on my skin by the second application, and a third application makes me feel so oily. It feels like I have a layer of grease on my skin and it transfers to my hands if I touch my face. Even a couple hours after application, I can still feel it on my skin, and by the end of the day, I can't wait to wash it off. Maybe you need to use powder to set it, but tbh if you're reapplying it several times throughout the day like I think most people buy this to do, then I don't think it'd feel that great. I feel like you'd have to wipe it off, then reapply to make it work which kinda defeats the purpose in my opinion.

This all happens to me even if I do a one-swipe layer across my face, so when I think about how you're technically supposed to apply multiple layers of sunsticks to get full coverage, I can only imagine how it would feel.

If you’ve stumbled upon the reel I just uploaded on IG about the ABIB Sunsticks I got from StyleKorean.com, then that’s probably how you landed here on my blog! If by any chance you haven’t seen that short IG reel of me doing the #AirySunstickChallenge, then check it out right here!

Airy Sunstick (22USD on StyleKorean)

SPF50+ PA++++

Semi-matte finish

Features top-tier ingredients: Allantoin, Ectoin & Sunflower Seed Oil, Oil-control Powder

Lightweight, airy finish

Reef-safe

No white cast

What I like about it:

Works great as a pore-blurring base, too! 

Control oil for around 3 hours under hot and humid weather.

Glides smoothly on the skin - like butter!

Can be applied on top of makeup so it’s great for re-application (just wipe off the top after use for hygienic purposes)

What I “kinda” not like about it (Neutral)

Powdery scent. But it goes away in like 10 minutes or so.

Pricey

Quick Sunstick (15.50USD on StyleKorean)

SPF50+ PA++++

Glowy finish

No white cast

Not sure about its key ingredients because unlike the Airy sunstick where they actually showcased its main ingredients, the Quick Sunstick variant didn’t mention anything in particular.

What I like about it:

Affordable price

Hydrating formula (Great for dry skin like mine!)

Glowy finish

Works great under makeup

Unscented (literally smells like nothing!)

Great for re-application (on bare skin)

What I “kinda” not like about it (Neutral)

Doesn’t glide as smoothly as the Airy Sunstick

Not ideal for re-applying on top of makeup. I guess it’s because of the hydrating formula and therefore heavier texture. It moves the makeup underneath.

Overall, I like both of them and I used them in different ways to test them out thoroughly. For the past few weeks, my skin has become so dry so I found myself using the Quick Sunstick (Black) variant more.

Meanwhile, if you have oily skin and you tend to oil up badly especially under the summer heat and high humidity, you’ll love the oil control properties of the Airy Sunstick (Gray) one. I actually gave this to my brother because he has very oily skin and he also does a lot of volunteer work and is always outside. He loves it so far!
