As the sun finally returns to our lives, it is high time to choose the sunscreen that will accompany us all summer!
Even if we constantly tell you that you need to wear SPF treatment all year round, we know it very well: some people resist and only use sunscreen in the summer. And as the summer period quickly approaches, sales of sun protection are exploding. The problem ? Choose one sunscreen adapted to your skin, to their needs and their lifestyle is not always easy. So, if you’re a Yuka fan and only swear by the products rated Excellent on the app… We think we’ve found the perfect sunscreen for you!
Mineral or chemical sunscreen… Which one to choose?
There are several factors that come into account when choosing an SPF treatment: the texture, the protection index, the protection spectrum or even if it is a treatment mineral or chemical. Mineral protection is made up of microparticles which remain on the surface of the skin and which allow it to reflect UV rays like a mirror. Chemical sunscreens contain organic filters that absorb UV rays and transform them into heat before releasing them into the skin. Also note that this protection takes between 20 and 30 minutes to fully activate.
The sun care product that arouses our curiosity thanks to its excellent rating on Yuka is a broad-spectrum mineral protection from Beesline. It protects against UVA, UVB and even infrared rays, with SPF30. In addition to its score of 86/100 on Yuka, we like this sun protection for its stick format. It allows easy and even application to all areas of the face, is ideal to carry in your handbag and allows quick touch-ups throughout the day.

Composed of 90.5% ingredients of natural origin, this sun cream is dermatologically tested and, with an ultra-light texture, is suitable for all skin types. Other advantages ? It is respectful of the oceans, with a formula concentrated in water. Also, its 18 gram stick is equivalent to 54 grams of liquid sunscreen!
A composition combining protection and care
A real treatment integrated into your daily skincare routine, the Beesline sun stick has a ideal composition to pamper our sweet face:
- Zinc oxide without nanoparticles to create a mineral filter 100% of natural origin. It forms a protective barrier which allows UV rays to be reflected from the surface of the skin.
- Vitamin E and rosemary extract, two active ingredients known to be powerful antioxidants. They protect the skin from free radicals generated by UV rays (but also by pollution, blue light, wind, cigarettes, etc.). They thus help prevent and protect photoaging and hyperpigmentation.
- Honey and sunflower oil, a duo of humectant active ingredients that deeply hydrate and nourish the skin. They thus help prevent the dryness and dehydration that the skin can experience when it is very hot.
