I love this sunstick. It has a very minimal whitecast and has a bit of a hydrating effect. I also love that it has zinc oxide as I can't really use any chemical sunscreens/sunsticks. If you have visible dry, flaky skin however, I would recommend exfoliating and doing your full skin care routine before applying this as it can catch on the flaky dry skin and make it look patchy. Other than that, it's really good.
