    First things first - I don't consider myself to be a pasty man. I'm a melanated man, and I like the sun, but also don't want to die, so the brand's tagline is appealing. Speaking of the brand, I really appreciated the nicely branded mailer and tissue that the tube came wrapped in; and the sticker was a nice touch. As advertised, the product doesn't feel greasy or leave a chalky cast or residue. Another plus is that it doesn't smell like some noxious coconut nightmare - it actually doesn't smell like anything at all. I applied some before going on a 25-mile bike ride; I worked up quite a sweat and could still feel that the product hadn't all been sweated away. I am impressed!

    I am one of the founders of Pasty Man so clearly extremely biased :) With that being said I wanted to upload some videos featuring some applications to show just how well our mineral formula comes on. A lot of folks out there are worried about white cast when it comes to zinc based sunscreens. For guys, we also want to know that it does not leave white residue in beards etc. So here's some videos that show Pasty Man Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 being applied on some hairy body parts.

    Just got mine the in the mail and have been using it the past few days as a daily sunscreen (it’s July), It goes on easy and rubs in nicely. I’ve only used it on my body, not my face, but I’ve really enjoyed it so far. I’m a runner and it hasn’t rubbed off or transferred to my clothes like other sunscreens have, so that’s a big win for me. As others have mentioned, there’s no odor either, so that’s a plus in my book too. If you’re looking for a great daily mineral sunscreen, I’d recommend it.

    I’ll be completely honest: I’m no sunscreen expert. That whole sunscreen aisle completely confuses me. This, however, felt refreshingly straightforward because, like the brand says, I don’t want to die from the sun. Plus, it looks insanely tight. Big fan of the branding. Excited to see where Pasty Man goes.

What is Pasty Man?

Pasty Man creates clean, broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen specifically marketed towards men

In their own words

For Men Who Love the Sun but Hate to Die. Pasty Man is a premium, high-performance, mineral-only shield designed to put a physical wall between your skin and the sun. It feels good to wear, stays matte, and won’t make your eyes sting. The sun care industry has a man problem. Most sunscreens ignore them. The rest sells them outdated masculinity, tropical clichés, and junk chemicals. Meanwhile, twice as many men die from melanoma than women. PASTY MAN is from New York City. We don’t do cliches, and we don’t do synthetic chemical filters.
