Japan's portable UV defense stick — SPF50+ PA++++ protection with a light-diffusing formula that brightens as it protects.
About this product
Japan's on-the-go sun protection upgrade — KOSE SUNCUT Pro Defence Light Up UV Stick delivers maximum SPF50+ PA++++ protection in a no-hands stick format that makes reapplication fast, clean, and practical in any situation — commuting, outdoors, or between meetings. Beyond UV defense, the 'Light Up' formulation contains optical brighteners that reflect visible light for a subtly illuminated, even-toned complexion rather than the matte or white-cast finish of traditional UV sticks. The solid stick format eliminates the mess and transfer risk of lotions and sprays, and the compact 20g size fits easily in any bag or pocket. Designed for the Japanese UV-conscious consumer who will not compromise on SPF and refuses to choose between sun protection and looking good.
How to use
- Apply before sun exposure as the final step before makeup.
- Glide directly onto exposed skin: face, neck, décolletage, and ears.
- Use circular motions to blend evenly across all covered areas.
- Allow 5–10 minutes to set before applying makeup over it.
- Reapply every 2 hours during prolonged sun exposure.
