Description
The Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Stick is a convenient, high-protection sun stick designed for face and body, offering broad-spectrum SPF 50+ (PA++++ in K-beauty context) in a compact stick format. The formula emphasises birch sap (Betula platyphylla japonica juice) harvested from Korea, which helps hydrate, soothe and strengthen the skin barrier.
It delivers a lightweight, non-white-cast, balm/cream-stick texture with a cooling and comfortable finish — suitable for on-the-go re-application and for skin that prefers a more hydrating feel under sun protection.
Size: 19G
Skin Type
All skin types, including normal, dry, combination and sensitive skin — especially those that need frequent reapplication of sun protection in a non-messy form.
Skin that tends to feel dry, tight or irritated by typical sun lotions — because this stick offers additional hydration and barrier support via birch sap and humectants.
People who use make-up or sunscreen and need a sun stick that can be applied over makeup or on exposed zones (cheeks, nose, ears, neck) easily
Key Benefits
High-level UV protection: Offers SPF 50+ broad spectrum, making it effective for everyday use and outdoor exposure.
Hydrating & soothing finish: Birch sap + humectants + peptides/minimal irritants help maintain moisture, reduce tightness and support barrier health.
Convenient stick format: Ideal for quick application and re-application (even on top of makeup or in travel/outdoor situations).
Lightweight texture + minimal white-cast: Good for both face and body, and for tones where white cast is undesired.
Cooling/comfort effect: Noted in reviews as “cooling effect” stick, which is a bonus for sun-hit or exposed skin.

Pregnancy and Nursing Safe
YES
While the product contains safe ingredients, we recommend you consult your healthcare professional before introducing new skincare products as every pregnancy is unique.
How to use
Finish your skincare routine (moisturiser or barrier-repair cream) in the morning.
Twist up the sun stick (raise just a small amount ~ 5 mm) and apply directly to face and exposed areas such as cheeks, nose, ears, temples, neck and arms if used for body.
Spread evenly by gently gliding the stick or using fingers to pat/blend coverage. Because you have flaky dry patches, if some patches feel dry you may lightly pat over with your finger to ensure even coverage.
Re-apply:
Every 2-3 hours if outdoors or under strong sunlight;
Immediately after sweating, swimming, towel-drying;
On days with makeup you can reapply over makeup or use it for touch-ups (stick format is convenient).
At the end of day, remove thoroughly with your usual cleansing routine (since stick may leave residue and you have a weakened barrier—cleanse gently but thoroughly).
Tip for your skin condition:
Because your barrier is weak and you have flaky dry patches + occasional cystic acne: ensure you apply the sun stick after your repair/moisturiser step and then immediately as the last layer.
On very dry patches, you might first apply a light layer of your barrier cream then apply the sun stick over it (to provide extra comfort).
For your occasional cystic acne: ensure the application covers all exposed areas and re-apply often, because unprotected sun exposure can worsen post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation.
