What is Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun?

It is a Korean face sunscreen. It feels like a light cream. It guards your skin from the sun and cares for it at the same time. This is why people use it every day, not just on trips.

Beauty of Joseon sunscreen ingredients, in simple words

What it does not have: no added scent. No zinc oxide, which is what gives a white cast.

What SPF 50+ PA++++ means: SPF 50+ blocks about 98% of the rays that burn. PA++++ is the top rating for UVA. These are the rays that cause tan, dark spots and lines. In Nepal, the sun is strong. Many towns are also high up, where the sun is even stronger. So this level of care really matters.

Is Beauty of Joseon sunscreen good for oily skin?

Yes, for most oily skin. It is light and sinks in fast. It does not feel thick or sticky like many sunscreens. Many people with oily and mixed skin use it each day with no breakouts.

But know your skin. This sunscreen leaves a soft, dewy glow. It is not matte. If your face gets very shiny by noon, you may see the glow more.

Tips if you have oily skin

1. Use a light gel cream under it. Or skip cream in summer. The sunscreen gives enough water to your skin.

2. Use the right amount, not more. Too much is what makes skin greasy.

3. Wait 2 to 3 minutes before makeup. Let it set first.

4. Blot, don't wipe, at noon. Use blotting paper. Then put on more sunscreen.

5. Try a lighter one if you are very oily. The Beauty of Joseon Aqua-Fresh is a watery gel made for oily skin. You can also look at the Round Lab Birch Juice sunscreen. Many oily skin users like it.

Is Beauty of Joseon sunscreen good for dry skin?

Yes. Dry skin is where this sunscreen does best. The rice and probiotics add water to the skin. So your face does not feel tight. It also sits well on dry patches. It does not flake.

In Nepal's dry winter, it can feel like a cream and sunscreen in one. Is your skin very dry? Then put a cream on first. Try a cream like Dr. Althea 345 Relief Cream or Purito Mighty Bamboo Panthenol Cream. Let the cream sink in for a minute. Then put on the sunscreen.

Is Beauty of Joseon sunscreen good for sensitive skin?

For most people, yes. It has no added scent. Scent is a common cause of sting and redness. The probiotics and niacinamide also help calm the skin.

Still, it is a chemical sunscreen. A few very touchy skins can react to it. Is your skin very sensitive? Or do you have a skin problem? Then do a patch test first:

1. Put a small amount behind your ear or on your jaw.

2. Leave it on for 24 hours.

3. No redness, itch or burn? Then it is likely safe for your whole face.

For very sensitive skin, you can also try the SKIN1004 Centella Hyalu-Cica sunscreen. It is made to calm red skin.

Is Beauty of Joseon sunscreen good for men?

Yes. Sunscreen is not just for women. Men's skin also tans, burns and ages in the sun. Many men skip sunscreen. They say it feels oily or looks white. This one does neither. It goes on clear. It has no strong smell. It feels light under a helmet or cap.

Tip for men: put it on after you shave. Wait for your aftershave or cream to dry first. Don't forget your ears and the back of your neck.

Is Beauty of Joseon sunscreen safe in pregnancy?

This sunscreen does not have oxybenzone. This is the sun filter most people worry about in pregnancy. Its filters are new ones. They are used a lot in Europe and Asia.

But it is still a chemical sunscreen. Many doctors suggest a mineral (zinc oxide) sunscreen in pregnancy, just to be safe. Each pregnancy is different. So please ask your doctor before you use any new skincare while pregnant or breastfeeding. Show them the list on the box.

Beauty of Joseon sunscreen: which skin type is it for?

How to use Beauty of Joseon sunscreen (the right way)

Most people use too little sunscreen. Then they get only half the care on the label. Follow these steps:

1. Wash your face in the morning.

2. Put on toner, serum and cream if you use them. Wait one minute for them to sink in.

3. Use the two-finger rule. Squeeze sunscreen along your first two fingers. That is the right amount for your face and neck.

4. Dot it on your forehead, cheeks, nose, chin and neck. Then spread it gently.

5. Put it on 15 minutes before you go out.

6. Put on more every 2 to 3 hours. Do this if you are outside, if you sweat or after you wash your face.

7. Use it every day. Use it on cloudy days too, and indoors near windows. UVA rays pass through clouds and glass.

8. Take it off at night. Use a face wash. If you wear makeup, wash twice.

Sunscreen is always the last step of your morning skincare. It goes on before makeup.

Common problems and how to fix them

Beauty of Joseon sunscreen before and after: what to expect

Sunscreen does not change your skin in one night. It guards your skin. You see the results over weeks, because it stops new harm.

• Day 1: Skin feels soft and fresh. It has a soft glow and no white cast.

• After 2 to 4 weeks of daily use: You tan less. Skin tone may look more even.

• After 2 to 3 months: Dark spots and acne marks fade faster. This is even better when you also use a serum like Skin Deva Vitamin C or Anua Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4%.

Without sunscreen, even the best serum can't do its full job. The sun just keeps making new dark spots.
