Coppertone sunscreen stick.

I found this at Walmart. At less than an ounce (It says .46 ounces)I thought it was worth putting in my pack. No oily sunscreen on my hands. I don’t always need it but on high country hunts I get burned.

I have had 6 basil cell spots removed in the last 4 months. Whatever sunblock weighs, it is worth it. Cream works best on your face because you can cover your ears and get into the contours of your face. I had two spots removed from behind my ears. Dr. said around and inside the ears is a neglected area that they work on frequently, fwiw. I now have a great selection of sun block and it goes on before I leave the truck and I always have a tube in my pack. Reapply frequently.

This is what I carried last year. Probably similar to the Coppertone.

.53 oz for $5.99

Creamed Multi-Floral New Zealand Honey

There's a real buzz about this honey...

I think the small stick is a great idea. Weighs next to nothing and you don't have to worry about leaking lotion.

Just as an FYI, Neutrogena makes Sensitive Skin products. One benefit to the SS products is they are scent free, which I prefer. I normally put lotion on my face, neck and back of hands before I leave in the morning, to get a base going. This is what I use fwiw.

Good advice right there! I can feel your pain, as I've had multiple Basils and one Squamous cell removed over the last 15 years or so. I'm sure that stick of sunscreen weighs over an oz. in the packaging, but worth it's wt. in gold for sure.

I would bet it weighs close to 2 ounces. This is what I use. It weighs 0.46oz with packaging. Works well and is only slightly bigger then a stick of chapstick.

I also wrap my Luekotape around it, to use as needed.

Dang my Neutrogena stick is 1.5 oz...it is wider and SPF 70 though...I'm sitting here laughing because I'm probably going to spend $7 to cut 0.9 oz from my pack

Live with sunscreen here too much fun in the sun decades ago and as with others a couple of visits to the dermatologist protect yourself

I use this in my fishing pack...scrub it on my face, it's thicker more like a soft wax, super light.

So a reality check on sunscreen, my 1.5 oz neutrogena stick was actually 2.95 oz. I ordered the smaller kids 70 spf neutrogena stick that says 0.47 oz on it and it is 1.15 oz. The oz on the stick/bottle is the contents, not the overall weight. That’s pretty obvious but I know a lot of people look over that.

I finally put the copper tone stick on a scale. I had used it once and it weighs 438.2 grains or 1.002 oz.
