This was SUCH a disappointment and I'm still angry about it. This is a unique sunscreen stick that has a relatively small profile so it's easy to get around the eyes and in any nooks and crannies. It does feel a little heavy going on and does leave a glow. The scent of this is fairly floral and doesn't linger, but it's noticeable. No eye stinging, but this did leave a bit of a cast on me! There's titanium dioxide in this, so I'm not surprised, but I'm still mad. Not terrible by any means, but watch out for the cast if you have darker skin.
