OBgE Active Sweatproof Sun Stick

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-09-21

What is this product?

A sweat-oriented SPF50+ PA++++ sun stick whose UV filters sit mid-list (positions 11 to 17) inside a wax and silicone base, with caffeine, panthenol and Centella leaf extract appearing later. The cooling menthol (67) makes it better for outdoor use than for reactive skin. Sweat-responsive protection claims are not backed by disclosed test conditions.

What makes it different?

Five UV filters, four organic and one mineral, are grouped between positions 11 and 17, giving broad-spectrum coverage in a stick format that reads dry rather than greasy. Menthol and menthyl lactate (67, 68) plus a cooling amide (70) set it apart from typical hydrating sun sticks, while amino acids and botanical extracts fill the later half of the list. Fragrance, essential oils and drying alcohols were screened and none were found.

What is in it?
