How to apply sunstick properly

 

 

1. Apply at least twice.

 

 

 

Sun sticks have excellent skin adhesion and do not rub off easily, but applying a thin layer once is not enough to provide proper UV protection.

 

 

 

When applying a sun stick, you should apply a sufficient amount to form a thin film on the surface of the skin.

 

Divide your face into sections such as the forehead, cheeks, and chin, and apply the product to each section at least twice, moving from the inside out. You should pay extra attention to contoured areas like the nose, cheekbones, and forehead to apply it thoroughly.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Tapping with fingers and wrapping with palm

 

 

 

After thoroughly applying the sun stick, gently pat it with your fingers and cup it with your palms to enhance its adhesion. In particular, when using base makeup products after applying the sun stick, gently press down on contoured areas to ensure close adhesion and prevent the makeup from caking or clumping.

 

 

 

 

 

3. Reapply every 2 to 3 hours

 

 

 

If you have applied the sun stick thoroughly without missing any spots, you do not need to reapply it during indoor activities, but during outdoor activities, it is recommended to reapply it every 2 to 3 hours as the sun stick may wear off due to sweat or the external environment.

 

Especially for oily skin with a lot of sebum and oil, or during the summer when sweat secretion is high, sun sticks tend to wear off more easily, so you need to reapply them more frequently. It is also recommended to use a product with strong staying power that is waterproof or sweatproof.

 

 

 

 

 

4. Maintain by disinfecting with an alcohol swab

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Since sun sticks are applied by directly contacting the skin with solid contents, proper hygiene management is required.

 

If you apply a sunstick that has been exposed to external bacteria to your face, it can have a direct or indirect effect on your skin and cause skin trouble, so it is recommended to disinfect the surface that touches the skin with an alcohol swab before applying the sunstick.

 

In addition, using separate sunsticks for the face and body allows for more hygienic use.
