I Tried That Viral Sunscreen Stick So You Don’t Have To!

Not gonna lie, in this fast-paced era, I feel like we literally don’t have the patience for even basic skin-care routine anymore. Like… reapplying sunscreen every 2-3 hours? Carrying the tube around, getting it all over my hands, and then smudging it on my phone screen? Be so for real. At this point, I’m like, why is adulting this complicated?

Okay, flashback to a few months ago when I was in New York. I’m that person who loves discovering random gems, and I ended up at Max Brenner aka heaven for hot chocolate lovers, btw 10/10, would highly recommend.

So I’m chilling, mid-sip, when I clock this girl behind the counter swiping something on her face. Her skin? Literally giving matte, no filter needed. I was like… hold up, what is that?

I had to ask what she used, but she only spoke Spanish, so I whipped out Google Translate like a boss (tech really is the MVP), and boom, turns out it was a sunscreen stick from Beauty of Joseon. And when I say compact, mess-free, and actually fun to use?? I was immediately obsessed and it’s by far the best sunscreen stick. 

She even dropped the plug on a local beauty store, and you know I sprinted over. Tried it once and was like—okayyy, this finish? So smooth, so clean, no greasy hands, no chaos. Chef’s kiss. No gatekeeping, this is the best sunscreen stick I’ve ever used and it’s been living in my bag ever since.
