Hampton Sun SPF 45 Mineral Face Stick

Breakdown

1 ingredient to avoid

Hampton Sun SPF 45 Mineral Face Stick scores 51/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Hampton Sun SPF 45 Mineral Face Stick lists 15 ingredients, starting with Zinc Oxide, Butyloctyl Salicylate, Butyrospermum Parkii Oil, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate and Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 51/100 Hampton Sun SPF 45 Mineral Face Stick lands mid-scale — below the typical score in sunscreen, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in sunscreen is Tallow & Zinc Sunscreen at 97/100.
