Island Tribe Kids Spf50 Sun Protection Stick Clear Gel 30ml

R 100.00

✅ What it is

  • The product is a clear-gel sunstick with SPF 50 — a compact, stick-format sunscreen.

  • It’s part of the “kids” range from Island Tribe, designed for children’s delicate skin — but also usable by adults.
  • Waterproof / water-resistant: it’s advertised to be water-resistant up to 4 hours, which makes it suitable for swimming, beach or water-sports, or for children playing outdoors.

🌤️ What it offers / What it’s good for

  • Broad spectrum UV protection (UVA + UVB) with SPF 50 — helps protect against sunburn and longer-term UV damage.

  • Easy to apply — because it’s a stick / gel, you can quickly apply (or re-apply) especially in spots that are easy to forget (e.g. nose, cheeks, ears). That’s useful for kids who fuss or don’t sit still long.
  • Practical for on-the-go — compact size and stick format makes it convenient for carrying in a bag for outings, beach/pool days, or holidays.
  • Non-irritating / dermatologically tested — the product listing notes that it is “dermatologist approved and irritancy tested,” suitable for sensitive skin (common concern for kids)

⚠️ Limitations / What to watch out for

  • As with many chemical sunscreens: the gel includes typical chemical UV filters (e.g. octocrylene, avobenzone etc.) — some individuals with very sensitive skin or chemical-sensitive skin may prefer mineral-based sunscreens.

  • Volume / coverage limitations — because it’s only 30 ml and in stick form, you may need a fair bit more (or multiple sticks / applications) if applying to larger body areas (arms, legs, torso) — it’s likely best for face, neck, small exposed areas, or quick top-ups.
  • As with all sunscreens — you need to apply generously and evenly, and re-apply after swimming, heavy sweating, or towelling to maintain protection.

🎯 Good Use Cases

This sun stick is especially good if you want:

  • A handy face/ear/neck sunscreen for kids (or yourself) — quick to apply, less messy than lotion.

  • On-the-go re-application (e.g. during outdoor play, pool visits, holidays) — especially for children, who may recoil at lotion.

  • Water-resistant protection for swimming or beach/water sports — helpful if kids are active outdoors.

  • A compact, travel-friendly sunscreen you can toss in a bag or backpack easily.
