Do I need to warm the stick up before applying?

Body heat softens it on contact. In cooler weather, press the stick against skin for a few seconds before swiping. Apply in firm, overlapping strokes. The formula stays solid in your bag and softens when it meets skin.

Why wear bright colored zinc instead of invisible sunscreen?

Because the visible layer IS the protection. Zinc sits on the surface and physically blocks UV rays. You can see where you are covered and where you are not. No guessing, no missed spots. Clear sunscreens absorb in – zinc stays on top and works.

Will it stay on in the surf or do I need to keep reapplying?

Tested to 4 hours water resistance under Australian TGA standards. The wax-based formula grips skin and resists wash-off better than lotions or sprays. Reapply after towel drying. For all-day sessions, carry a spare.

Can I use this on my whole face or only on my nose?

Anywhere that burns first – nose, cheeks, ears, forehead, lips. The stick delivers thick, targeted coverage in seconds. For full-face use, the Light and Medium Skin Tone shades blend in while protecting. Bright colors for kids and sport.

Sun Zapper Original Zinc Sticks – Know What You’re Wearing

SPF Rating SPF 50+ Broad Spectrum. The highest SPF rating available under Australian standards. Blocks both UVA (aging, long-term damage) and UVB (burning) rays. Water Resistance 4 hours. Tested under Australian TGA standards for water resistance. Stays on through surf, sweat, and pool sessions. Reapply after towel drying or extended water exposure. Zinc Oxide The visible physical barrier. Zinc oxide sits on the skin’s surface and blocks UV on contact. When you can see it, you know it’s working. This is serious sun protection – not a light cosmetic tint. UV Filter System Zinc oxide combined with advanced UV-absorbing filters for reinforced broad spectrum coverage. The zinc provides a visible physical shield while additional filters strengthen UVA and UVB defense underneath. Available Colors 7 colors across the range: White, Pink, Blue, Green, Yellow, Light Skin Tone, and Medium Skin Tone. Bright colors for visibility and fun. Skin-tone shades for protection without the look. Designed For Face, nose, ears, cheeks, and lips – the high-exposure zones that burn first. Stick format delivers precise, thick coverage exactly where you need it. No overspray, no runoff, no missed spots. Stick Format Solid twist-up stick. Glides directly onto skin – no hands needed, no mess, no spreading. One swipe across the nose, two across each cheek. Targeted protection in seconds. Application Apply thick. Apply bold. Sun Zapper zinc sticks are not meant to disappear – the visible layer IS the protection. A single thin swipe is not enough. Build it up. The more you see, the better it works. Parabens None. All seven colors are formulated without parabens. Aloe Vera Aloe Barbadensis extract in every color. Soothes and hydrates the skin underneath the zinc barrier. Protection on top, care underneath. Vitamin E Tocopheryl Acetate in every formula. Antioxidant that helps protect skin cells from free radical damage caused by UV exposure. Net Weight 12g (0.42 oz) per stick. Built to fit in a boardshort pocket, golf bag, ski jacket, or backpack. Small enough to carry everywhere, so you always have protection on hand. Portability The stick format goes where lotions and sprays cannot – in a pocket, a race belt, a tackle box. Built for people who are outside, not people sitting at a desk. Brand Heritage Sun Zapper has been protecting skin since 1995. Thirty years of formulation in Australia, where UV radiation is the most intense on earth and sunscreen is not a lifestyle choice – it is a necessity. Made in Australia Developed and manufactured in Australia – a country with the highest UV index on earth. Australian TGA regulates sunscreens as therapeutic goods, not cosmetics, requiring stricter testing and manufacturing standards than most countries.

ZINC SUNSCREEN STICK THAT MATCHES MEDIUM SKIN: Medium Skin Tone SPF 50+ mineral sunscreen blends with olive and tan complexions so you get full zinc protection without a chalky white mask; zinc oxide and titanium dioxide sit on the skin surface reflecting UV rays instead of absorbing into skin
STAYS ON 4 HOURS IN WATER BECAUSE IT BONDS TO SKIN: Dense mineral formula grips the skin surface creating a water-resistant shield through swimming, surfing, and sweating; where liquid sunscreens wash off in waves, this zinc stick stays put because the wax base locks minerals in place
NO OXYBENZONE, NO PARABENS, NO FRAGRANCE: Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide mineral actives with Aloe Vera and Vitamin E; this formula relies entirely on mineral UV filters that sit on the skin surface to physically block UV rays; gentle enough for the whole family including children aged six months and older
SOLID STICK MEANS ZERO MESS AND ZERO WASTE: Unlike lotions that spill in bags and sprays that miss your face, solid zinc glides on exactly where you aim it; dense 12g stick lasts longer per gram than liquid sunscreen because you apply only what you need with precision; won’t melt in your beach bag
AUSTRALIAN MADE SINCE 1995 IN THE HARSHEST UV ON EARTH: Formulated in Australia where the ozone layer is thinnest and UV index exceeds 14; sunscreen built for extreme conditions then trusted by families in over 40 countries; when it works in Australian sun it works everywhere
