I bought this as I've been looking at Laneige Homme's sun stick and finding it way out of my price range. I was hoping this Etude House sun stick would be a cheap alternative, but it's not as good as I thought it would be. In fact, I'd even say that it is too expensive for what it is. As you can see in the photo below, you get less than half of the tube filled with the product (this photo was taken a day after the parcel arrived and after one application on a normal sized face...). I was a bit disappointed with this as for nearly 10 dollars I expected more than that. The sun stick has a moderate perfumed scent which smells suncream-y, but fades quite quickly after application. Now it says that it suits all skin tones but it does give a white-casted glow; this may not show on much paler shades but for me it was very, very noticeable. The sun stick also appears to be more of a very light BB stick because the product gets creased up like cheap makeup. It also says that it controls sebum, and it does have a powdery texture after the initial creamy melting sensation, but my T-zone is very slippery, as if it is covered in oil. You can't actually see that though because the rest of my face is shining with an unnatural white-tinted glow. Not pleased with this product at all, and definitely will not repurchase. The only good point is that I do like the idea of creating a stick of sunscreen and I would like to see more companies follow suit.
