Freaks of Nature Peak Performance Sun Stick SPF 50, Face Sunscreen, 0.7 oz

Sunscreen that stings your eyes at kilometre 5 is the reason most runners skip it. This stick fixes that. It is a 100% mineral SPF 50 with 25% non-nano zinc oxide, made for athletes: it glides on dry, stays put through 80 minutes of sweat or swimming, and does not melt and drip when you heat up. The smooth formula is designed to leave no white cast, so it works on every skin tone.

The 0.7 oz face stick fits in a running vest pocket or race belt, so you can reapply on the go without touching your face with dirty hands. Microalgae oil, squalane and vitamin E keep your skin from drying out in sun and wind. Reef safe, fragrance free, vegan and free of chemical UV filters.
