Sun Protection

Korean sunscreen is daily sun protection made to feel light on the skin, often with skincare-style textures and a non-greasy finish. This collection holds mostly sunscreens, plus a few cushion foundations, foundations and face primers that carry SPF.

Brands include Hera, Cell Fusion C, Innisfree, CLIO, Kahi, Dr.G, SKIN1004 and Pyunkang Yul. Examples are the Dr.G Green Mild Up Sun, the Tiam B3 Niacin Sunscreen, the Dear Klairs All-day Airy Sunscreen, the Goodal Calming Mineral Filter Sunscreen, the Ohui Day Shield Tone Up SunBlock and the CellFusionC Laser UV Defense Sunscreen.

SPF shows UVB protection and PA shows UVA protection, so look for both on the label. Choose a gel, lotion or light serum texture if your skin is oily and a cream or tone-up formula if it is dry. Apply a generous amount as the last step of your morning routine, and see PA++++ vs SPF 50: What Each Sunscreen Label Tells You for the details.
