The Beauty of Joseon Matte Sunstick Mugwort + Camellia is a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ PA++++ sunscreen designed made for life on the go, whether running around the city or under the sun on a long hike. It’s ideal for reapplying SPF (over makeup, too) throughout the day w/o the mess or greasy finish.
✨Some Key Ingredients:
- Artemisia Capillaris (Mugwort): Soothes and calms irritated skin; rich in vitamins A & C.
- Silica: Helps absorb excess oil and control shine, creating a soft, blurred finish.
- Green Tea Extract: Packed with antioxidants to soothe and protect.
- Centella Asiatica Extract: Known for calming and hydrating sensitive or reactive skin.
This sun stick was developed in collaboration with cosmetic chemist and influencer Ramon (@glowwithramon), and it’s formulated w/o artificial fragrance, alcohol, or essential oils, making it a good option for sensitive skin types.
Unlike many sun sticks that can lean oily, waxy or have too much of a glowy finish.. this one is formulated to provide a soft matte finish that feels light on the skin. BOJ claims this will apply smoothly, no tugging, even during reapplication AND resist clumping or disturbing your makeup in the process. Well, I put it to the test to see how it preforms…
💭 My Experience
At first, I didn’t think I’d use this much, but it’s actually become a go to for reapplication, travel, and straight up lazy sunscreen days.
The texture is smooth and silky, and it doesn’t drag when applying. I love that it doesn’t feel weirdly heavy or tacky after application, even in that humid, summer heat. You know how your skin, especially neck area (at least for me), can get that sticky, gross feeling when you’ve been sweating ? Well, then at that point I know I’ve probably sweated off my SPF so then it’s time to reapply and It actually helps by mattifying the skin with a soft, kinda powdery finish so all that stickiness just goes away.
It also layers SO well over makeup without messing anything up, and there’s no white cast, or green cast in this situation since there is a pale green hue to the stick…
The small palm size makes it super convenient.. just throw it in the bag and go !! Overall, it’s one I’ll keep repurchasing and just so good to have on hand at any time.
