FAQs

What is a Zinke stick?

A Zinke stick is zinc sunscreen in stick form that provides targeted, mess-free application. Key Sun Zinke sticks offer broad-spectrum UV protection using zinc oxide as the main ingredient. It sits on top of your skin to physically block UVA and UVB rays.

How do I use zinc sticks?

To use a zinc stick, simply swipe it directly onto your skin and blend evenly with your fingers. Focus on areas that are most exposed to the sun, such as your face, ears and neck.

Are zinc sticks safe to use on lips?

Our Zinke sticks are safe to use on the lips, but they are not recommended. They are not formulated for use on the lips, so they may not provide the same level of comfort and moisture as lip-specific products.

Are zinc sticks better than sunscreen?

Both our Zinke sticks and traditional sunscreens offer effective protection against sunburn and long-term skin damage. However, Zinke sticks provide a convenient, no-mess application and are less likely to cause irritation for sensitive skin, making them a preferred choice for many, especially for facial use.

How often should I use/reapply zinc sticks?

Reapply your zinc stick sunscreen every two hours or more frequently if you're sweating heavily or after swimming to ensure continuous protection throughout the day.
