Beauty of Joseon Daily Relief Sunscreen for face Sun moisturizing with Broad Spectrum SPF 40 Korean sunscreen skincare 50ml, 1.69 fl.oz

I grew up despising sunscreen because of how it felt on the skin, but I've become something of a fanatic in the last few years. I've tried dozens upon dozens, possibly reaching into the hundreds, and my favorites tend to be from Korean and Japanese brands. The original Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun has become a staple for me due to its protection (SPF 50, PA++++), wearability (lightweight, comfortable, doesn't sting my eyes), finish (slightly dewy), and price point (under $15, sometimes under $10). I was excited to try this version made for the North American market. I hemmed and hawed a little in determining how to rate this. Compared to the original, it's not quite as good. It's a little heavier, a little shinier, doesn't offer quite as much protection, and costs a few dollars more. However, a lot of that is due not to the product itself, but to FDA regulations that limit US consumers' access to the best and newest sunscreen filters; the US hasn't had a new filter approved in literally decades, while European and Asian brands continue to innovate. With that in consideration, this product is still leaps and bounds better than 95% of American sunscreens I've tried. It dries down fairly well, not too sticky or greasy, although I can still feel it if I touch my face (which is true for most sunscreens, even those from overseas). It leaves a bit of shine but not anything egregious even on my oily skin; it makes me look glowy rather than oilier, and has no white cast. A matte finish would be preferred for me, but most US sunscreens make me go full disco ball so I'll take what I can get. It didn't run into my sensitive eyes, although I haven't worn it directly on my eyelids yet, nor have I tried it under makeup. Overall I would say that this is a really good product by US standards, and definitely worth trying if you live in North America. If you buy exclusively overseas brands it might not be your absolute favorite, but if you're used to what we normally get in the States, I think you'll love it.

🌞 Perfect for daily use – Lightweight, hydrating, and non-irritating This sunscreen exceeded my expectations. It has a light texture, no white cast, and absorbs quickly. Perfect for sensitive skin — no stinging or irritation. I love that it contains calming ingredients and layers perfectly under makeup. A true Korean skincare gem! ✔️ Lightweight formula ✔️ Great for sensitive skin ✔️ No white cast ✔️ Hydrating, non-greasy Highly recommend. Would repurchase with no hesitation. 🙌🏽

How is this SPF?! So insanely lightweight and moisturizing. Feels lighter than air on my skin but leaves a really nice and subtle glow. For reference I’m SUPER sensitive and with very reactive skin and have never had an issue with this. Best SPF I’ve found and such a good price.

Lightweight and hydrating, this sunscreen blends in easily with no white cast, which I love. It feels more like a moisturizer than sunscreen and works great under makeup. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that it can leave my skin a bit shiny on some days and has a faint sunscreen smell. Overall, a great daily option.

I usually don’t leave reviews, but I have tried so many different sunscreen brands, spent so much money trying to find one that worked for me. I’ve been let down by every overpriced, overhyped sunscreen that I’ve tried. But, this one is the ONE! I’m so happy to have found an affordable sunscreen that sits so beautifully on my skin. It goes on so smooth, silky, no white cast, and doesn’t pill! Leaves no streaks, and doesn’t sit on the top of my skin looking greasy, and gross. This one actually seems to absorb, is so moisturizing, and looks, and feels amazing all day long. Best sunscreen literally ever. Buy it now!

The Beauty of Joseon Daily Relief Sunscreen is amazing. It feels very lightweight on the skin and absorbs quickly without leaving a white cast. It doesn’t feel greasy or heavy and works well under makeup. My skin feels moisturized and calm after using it, and it doesn’t cause irritation or breakouts. This sunscreen is perfect for daily use, especially for sensitive skin. I will definitely repurchase.

This is the best facial sunscreen I could find! I have highly sensitive skin and I am picky about what goes under my makeup, but this truly feels like you are wearing almost nothing! It does not leave your skin greasy and does not have a white cast when you wear it. Best for everyday sunscreen!

If you have oily or combination skin, I'd recommend staying away from this one. It felt nice when I first put it on but it kind of sits on top of the skin and made my skin look greasy. I also felt like I was getting sunburnt despite wearing it.
