Best Sunscreen Sticks in Malaysia for Easy Sun Protection On-The-Go

There’s no doubt that the most essential part of our daily skincare routine during the day is sunscreen. No matter the weather—rain or shine — putting on sunscreen is a step that shouldn’t be skipped. So, if you’re not keen on wearing sunscreen yet, or you want another option to fit into your busy schedule, there are variations of sunscreen formulas available.

This includes sunscreen sticks that make it easy to apply and reapply sun protection at any time of the day, especially since you need to reapply after 3-4 hours of sun exposure. Sunscreen sticks, or sunsticks, are made up of solid blocks of sunscreen that provide strong SPF protection against UV rays. They can be swiped over the face, neck, and body with ease, making them great for when you’re on-the-go. Plus, some of them can also be applied on top of your makeup without ruining it.

From dewy and glowy to matte and powdery finishes, Beauty Insider has listed down the top sunscreen sticks in Malaysia for your everyday shield against SPF!
