Sun Protection Skincare Sticks

Hera Homme's UV Defense Stick Offers Shine Control and Freshness

Hera Homme was launched as a modern skincare range for the busy man, which provides multifunctional solutions for everything from cleansing and anti-aging to sun care, as seen in the brand's UV Defense Stick.

Unlike many sun care sticks that are only designed to offer UV protection, this one from Hera Homme is also packed with skincare-like properties, such as shine control and freshness. The product is packaged in a roll-on format, much like a deodorant stick, which is familiar and exceptionally convenient for on-the-go use.

Heatwaves in various parts of the world have increased the demand for sun sticks, as they can easily be applied during a hot summer day for protection and relief. Cosmetics Business reports that "the convenient format’s success is also due to use on the golf course."
