Mary & May Vegan Peptide Bakuchiol Sun Stick SPF50+ PA++++ is a powerful anti-aging sun protection stick that prevents photoaging, pigmentation, and sunburns while enhancing skin elasticity and firmness.
It smooths fine lines, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, and slows down the skin aging process. The stick also prevents dryness and leaves skin soft, supple, and well-nourished with a comfortable, non-sticky, non-greasy finish.
Its compact and hygienic stick format makes it perfect for reapplication throughout the day. The slim shape is ideal for hard-to-reach areas like around the nose and under the eyes.
Certified Vegan by Vegan® Korea, this formula is free from animal-derived ingredients and not tested on animals.
Reliable UV protection is provided by titanium dioxide, a hypoallergenic physical filter that reflects UV rays, along with modern, photostable chemical filters that last up to 8 hours in urban environments:
- Uvinul A Plus (Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate) – UVA protection
- Uvinul T 150 (Ethylhexyl Triazone) – UVB protection
- Tinosorb S (Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine) – Broad-spectrum protection
The formula contains 25 peptides, each with targeted functions:
- Anti-aging peptides (e.g., Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Copper Tripeptide, Hexapeptide-9) promote collagen synthesis, protect against oxidative stress, stimulate regeneration, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
- Botox-like peptides (e.g., Argireline, Syn-Ake®, Acetyl Octapeptide-3) relax facial muscles to reduce expression lines.
- Brightening peptides (e.g., Nonapeptide-1, Hexapeptide-2) regulate melanin production, even out skin tone, and boost radiance.
- De-puffing peptides (e.g., Dipeptide-2, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5) improve lymphatic drainage and reduce under-eye puffiness and dark circles.
Additional key ingredients:
- Bakuchiol (10,000 ppm) – a plant-based retinol alternative that smooths and renews the skin without irritation; ideal for sensitive skin.
- Tocopherol (Vitamin E) – smooths, tones, soothes irritation, heals microdamage, and restores lipid balance.
Suitable for all skin types.
