What it is
Matte Sun Stick was developed with Ramón @glowbyramon, an influencer and cosmetic chemist, as the director. It was created after an extensive collaboration by meticulously going through all the processes that fall under BOJ's brand philosophy of Modern Hanbang skin care.
Most sun sticks are focused on use for outdoor activities, but we wanted to bring out the usefulness of sun sticks in our daily lives in bustling cities as well. To get listed SPF and PA protection level, sunscreen should be reapplied every 2-3 hours, but that’s not easy to do all of the time. So, we developed a sun stick with a matte formula that doesn't get clumpy and doesn't feel sticky or greasy even when reapplied several times over makeup.
Sebum-control silica powder regulates sebum to increase adherence and provides a matte and smooth finish without clumping. Containing artemisia capillaris and green tea extracts, it helps create smooth skin while maintaining moisture.
Non-greasy matte sun stick
It is a matte sun stick without any of the oily or sticky feelings. It is hygienic as you don’t need to apply it with your hands, and it is compact, enabling convenient use anytime, anywhere.
Porous sebum-control silica powder
Sebum-control silica powder regulates sebum on the skin, giving a smooth and soft-rolling feeling without greasiness.
