Mary&May - Vegan Peptide Bakuchiol Sun Stick SPF50+ PA++++ 18g

Mary&May Vegan Peptide Bakuchiol Sun Stick SPF50+ PA++++ is a portable high protection sunscreen that combines daily UVA and UVB protection with Bakuchiol, peptides and Vitamin E for additional skincare benefits.

At the centre of the formula is 10,000 ppm or 1% Bakuchiol, a plant-derived skincare ingredient widely used in routines targeting visible signs of ageing. Mary&May pairs Bakuchiol with 25 types of peptides to provide complementary care for skin firmness, elasticity and texture while protecting the skin from UV exposure. 

The formula uses a combination of modern UV filters including Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Ethylhexyl Triazone, Polysilicone-15 and Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine. These provide the sunscreen's high SPF50+ PA++++ protection.

Tocopherol, a form of Vitamin E, provides additional antioxidant support, while the stick's powder-containing base helps create a smooth, fresh finish without excessive stickiness. The formula is designed to glide comfortably over the skin while minimising visible white cast. 

The compact stick format is particularly useful for sunscreen reapplication throughout the day. It can be carried in a handbag, backpack or travel bag and applied directly to exposed areas of the face and body without needing to dispense sunscreen into the hands.
