Good sun protection but breakouts
The sun protection worked as stated, however, my skin did not like it and it caused me to breakout badly. I wouldn't recommend if you have sensitive skin, or skin prone to breakouts when using products.

Good and Bad
I really like this. I did have a problem which I told Amazon about. this was not closed and there was sun tan lotion out inside the box about half of this was gone. I thought Amazon would have replaced without me sending this one back but no they did not. any way I do Like the product but will sting and burn really bad if it gets in your eyes which is easy to do it is for the face.

Best SPF chapstick
Scent: Island Coconut, Size: 0.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my new favorite chapstick. It’s a little thicker than I’ve used before but super smooth and not sticky!
