Matte Sun Stick Beauty Of Joseon Matte Sun Stick Mugwort+Camelia SPF 50+ PA++++

I didn't purchase this here, but it might be of interest to someone. I bought the stick specifically for a trip to the beach, using it 2-3 times a day, and it barely lasted me 10 days. There's very little product. It didn't protect against dark spots. I applied it once under makeup, and surprisingly, it didn't cause any clumping. However, it's not advisable to apply it over makeup. On the plus side, it mattifies and is easy to apply without using your hands.

This is my second purchase from Maikap, and I'm really pleased with it. I particularly like that the stick has a matte finish. Previously, I tried a stick from JMSolution, but I didn't like it because it felt too heavy on my face and was overly shiny, which made it uncomfortable to wear. In contrast, the Beauty of Joseon stick is much better. I also use the regular 50 ml sunscreen tube from the same brand, and then I refresh my SPF throughout the day with this stick. It mattifies my skin nicely and removes the oily shine from my face. I'm very satisfied!

I purchased this product elsewhere because it wasn't available here. However, since I often rely on reviews from this site, I'd like to share my experience.

Imagine applying a thick, greasy substance on your face that doesn't absorb or dry, and just stays there. By the way, it's also quite difficult to wipe or wash off. I wouldn't recommend using it in the city because it attracts every speck of dust. Sweating with this on isn't great either, as it clogs pores, leading to redness and irritation.

I won't throw it away, though. I'll keep it and try using it during a beach vacation. If it's hard to wash off, it might at least protect against sunburn while swimming.

The product does not irritate my skin and applies easily, but unfortunately, the matte finish didn't work for me. I prefer a dewy look.

Here's a coherent translation of the product review into English:

"The formula feels nice and applies well, but it doesn't fully replace an SPF cream. I use it as additional protection. I haven't applied it over makeup yet."

Very disappointing. It feels satin-like to the touch. I bought it for relaxation at the seaside, for a light refreshment, but I haven't tested it there yet.

This product applies easily and provides a matte finish to the skin. However, if applied over makeup, it tends to smudge everything and requires washing it all off.

This product is very easy to apply and provides a cool matte finish to the skin. It even eliminates the need for powder to achieve a matte look. It is important to apply it directly after moisturizer, on well-hydrated skin. I haven't experienced any breakouts. The only drawback is that if your skin is not sufficiently moisturized, there may be some small white residue from the application. However, these traces disappear after a couple of minutes.

The product is great, but I bought it right away in the summer for a crazy price of 1229 UAH, without checking the prices at around 800 UAH in competitors. Now the price is down to 500 UAH, which is less than half of what it was just six months ago - it's unclear what the deal was.

I didn't like it. Both my partner and I got breakouts after using it (both of us have skin prone to breakouts and we cleanse properly). After application, it feels a bit heavy, like there is a layer of this product on the skin, even though it has a satin finish, the skin doesn't shine with it. Overall, not bad, if it didn't cause breakouts.
