NO-AD Sunscreen Stick Review

It is summer OFFICIALLY now so you can expect to see summer-themed posts quite frequently around here. :) One thing that I have been focusing on is sunscreen and it is so important for us to take care of our skin. Last weekend, our family enjoyed some much-needed time together and we went to the zoo!! Woo! I love going to the zoo and it has been some time since our last visit. Our younger children had never been before so it was such a treat to experience that with them! Before we even hit the park, I made sure all of the children had sunscreen on them...especially on both of my sons' ears. Their poor little ears get burned SO easily...I make sure they are well covered during any outdoor activities during the summer. By the way, did you know that you can get sunburned during the winter too?? The sun reflects off the snow and you can get some pretty powerful UV rays even though it is bitter cold out. Just thought I would throw that out there.

Anyway, enough talk about the snow and cold...lets talk about the summer sun! I have review NO-AD products here before and they are one of my favorite brands. They have recently introduced a brand new member to their family of sun care products and I wanted to tell you about it today. The NO-AD Sunscreen Stick is here just in time for the heat of the summer and I LOVE it. In case this company is new to you, here is a brief overview of their history...

NO-AD Sun Care was introduced in 1962 with the concept of providing consumers with quality sun care products that are twice the size as national brands for the same price – all with “no TV ads”, no hype and no gimmicks. NO-AD has also been named a “Best Buy” by one of the leading consumer publication five years in a row (2010-2014). 

NO-AD launched the first of its kind, most complete body skin care for 365 days a year, in 2015, providing consumers with the most complete anti-aging body care line on the market. NO-AD Skin Care not only provides maximum moisturization that lasts 36 hours, but adds powerful anti-aging anti-oxidants and ingredients to help repair skin, all while providing broad spectrum SPF 15 UV protection to help prevent future photo-aging caused by UV light. NO-AD Skin Care is Dermatologist Tested and Recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation for Daily Use. 

When it comes to value and common sense, NO-AD has no competition.

I was dumb as a teenager and didn't use sunscreen at all but now that I am older and a bit-------------ahem-------------wiser, I use it whenever I am outside. I also have Lupus and being in the sun is a huge no-no for me so I use sunscreen to protect my skin from getting burnt or I REALLY have problems.

For this review, I was sent two sun care products from NO-AD, but I will focus on one of them. I have reviewed the Kid's sunscreen here before so for today, I will be telling you about my experience with the Sunscreen Stick.

The first thing that I love about this sunscreen stick is that it is compact and small. I carry a mammoth diaper bag with me wherever I go so I have to have things that will fit into it along with everything else. This stick is the perfect size to stick in my diaper bag and will also fit nicely into a pocket, purse, glove box, first-aid kit, etc. Smaller doesn't always mean less. :)

If you want to know what the sunscreen itself looks like, just imagine a stick of deodorant. It looks exactly like that. Solid, no cream or gunk to get all over the place, no mess and no hassle. Just what a busy mom like myself needs!! I clean up enough messes and don't need any additional ones. This sunscreen stick is amazing and makes applying sunscreen a super neat project.

The last thing that I love is that this sunscreen goes on clear. I rubbed it onto my skin multiple times and as you can see above, there is absolutely no evidence that anything is there. Sometimes, while I love the cream-based sunscreens, they can just be so messy. This one keeps my hands clean and doesn't get my skin sticky or greasy. I can get used to that. 

You can find this NO-AD Sunscreen Stick (along with other products from NO-AD) at Wal-Mart, Target, CVS, Walgreens, Rite-Aid, Kroger, Publix, Winn-Dixie, HEB, BI-LO, www.wal-mart.com, www.drugstore.com, and other retail and online stores throughout the USA. 

So, before you head out to enjoy some fun in the sun, make sure you have the skin protection that you need. NO-AD has you covered. Literally. :)
