The Beauty of Joseon one is my #1 and it changed my mind about sunscreen. I hated every U.S. one I’ve ever tried, and was prepared to die young rather than use it.

I watched one of Dr. Drays videos around this time last year where she discussed the vast difference between the ingredients in american vs. the rest of the world’s sunscreens and how the chemical filters used in places like Europe and Asia provide better protection for your skin. I then read an article that echoed the same information. Now I bulk buy my sunscreen from Amazon UK and Stylevana. She’s right. The European and Asian brands are better.

[@stephaniemarie3587]

I commented this on her short of the Skin 1004 tone up SPF video, but I absolutely *LOVE* this sunscreen. I have tried at least 4 of the SPF’s in this video and many many American, Korean, Japanese sunscreens and this one is by far my favorite.

that skin aqua uv super moisture milk is great! as doc said, it's oil free. it doesn't have stearates and stearic acids; doesn't have any ferments; in short, it's safe for those of us who worry about "fungal acne" recurrence. it's also waterproof. now the only cons are that it's only 40ml and so liquidy you have to make sure it's going where it's supposed to; and it's not matte (though it's not too shiny either). i'm southeast asian and maybe a fitzpatrick 4-5 and the whitecast is hardly noticeable. like maybe i'll notice it if i stare too long.

Hi Dr. Dray! Love you content! I’ve really upped my skin care routine/protection with your videos. Have you thought of making a video for pregnant women🤰🏻? Heard they’re supposed to stay away from AHA/BHA, retinoids etc. What is safe and what is not. Also, I think a video on efficacy of commonly used sunscreens using the sunscreen detecting cameras would be a treat for the viewers. This will also show how important it is to apply enough sunscreen and commonly missed spots. Thank you!

[@SHFMIA]

I love the Skin Aqua Milk. However, my only concern is that some influencers on Instagram say it doesn’t spread evenly and looks patchy when viewed under a UV camera. On the other hand, dermatologists advise not to rely on UV cameras. The question is whether those cameras are truly based on a scientific approach or if we should place more trust in a large Japanese pharmaceutical company with extensive research and Japanese regulatory backing.

[@psylegal]

Skin 1004 Tone brightening tone up sunscreen sounds too good to be true! it looks like it's supposed to leave a white cast, kind of like an Asian aesthetic. I've noticed the white tint of mineral sunblock works for me. Also, I feel like you read the comments. Wonder if I'll get hooked on this sunscreen, which i just ordered (we'll see). i was looking at old pictures of myself from 10 years ago when i was a runner, and i had more damaged looking skin than i do now...sunscreen is important!

The Beauty of Joseon spf is my favorite Asian sunscreen so far. Admittedly I've only tried 3-4 different brands, but just loved the Beauty of Joseon so much I stopped looking.

I'm having such a difficult time finding a sunscreen that doesn't irritate my skin or make me break out.

All US approved chemical suncreens make me nervous, and BOJ and Round Lab broke me out with little tiny bumps all over my face. Every mineral sunscreen I've used dries me out or stays super oily and sticky looking. I'd love to find a sunscreen that I could apply multiple times/day without feeling anxious.

Have you tried hybrid sunscreens? I don’t tolerate the BOJ sunscreen or any US sunscreens with Avobenzone, but the Drmtlgy spf 45 (untinted for me) is suuuuuper gentle. As in, I can apply it with my extremely compromised skin barrier from tretinoin. It has a combo of zinc and octinoxate.

And so far I haven’t found any sunscreen that works for me without breaking me out except Nivea Sun Protect Super Water Gel Sunscreen Pump Bottle SPF50 PA+++ (Japanese), and my favorite used to be Rohto Skin Aqua Super Moisture Gel SPF50+ PA++++ before they reformulated it and added green tea which my skin can’t handle. I prefer the milky sunscreens as they are matte, but after ruining my skin and now have Rosacea those break me out.

Tone up sunscreens are always going to have a pale cast. That's what they're for. They're sort of like the asian equivalent of US tinted bronzers. Asians prefer pale skin, so they have tone up sunscreens that make you look paler. US prefer tanned skin, so our tinted sunscreens tend to be bronzers.

I use the one produced in Indonesia for Indonesian market, so maybe it's slightly different to the Japanese one. because my only grip with it is that it feels like it doesn't set on my face. like even after a few hours, i can still feel it if i touch my face, like it doesn't just "disappear". and sadly, since last year i think, it kinda stings my eyes. it used to be very safe for my eyes. i think it's bc i can't tolerate chemical filters even more nowadays. but it's really cheap here, about 3 USD i think.

ada rekomendasi ss kak?

[@palalabu]

@@heilauu7348 skin aqua spf 50 (the blue one), azarine tone up (whitecast di awal), azarine yg lain jg oke, tp kynya agak pilling, the aubree daily sunscreen (agak perih di mata sy)

Thanks for reviewing the skin 1004 sunscreens. I have been using their skincare brand because they work for me but my sunscreen is from Foodaholic and I am unsure whether Skin 1004 sunscreen is better for me. I might give it a try. Thank you!❤

[@melp8175]

Skin 1004 is new to me. I just bought it and love it and it was 9 .❤❤

[@JavaBeanJean]

I looove the Haruharu sunscreen, even if I have an eczema flare up it never stings and my skin always looks more hydrated and rested after applying it. I have medium/tan skin and it doesn’t give me a white cast.

[@tjodine2433]

What is your skin type? I was waiting for a try on but she missed that one…I am combo T zone with some dry patches and wonder if it would work for me

[@manzoor2378]

Sad that the Centella air fit Sun cream white cast looks terrible even on your fair skin

[@zoeberry33]

You forgot Scinic!

[@Kay2be2mr]

I prefer the chemical version of the Haruharu sunscreen.

Anyone else having a problem getting the discount code to work?

[@VaLilly740]

Be aware too that Stylevana has terrible reviews 😢😢

[@highaloft]

I have a darker (SE Asian) skintone, and the Rohto Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Milk has been my HG sunscreen for a few years now. *Zero cast.* And there's never been titanium dioxide listed on the packaging. Something to note: The ing. list for this on stylevana has a disclaimer at the end saying that it includes ingredients from any possible iterations of this product, so perhaps some long-ago version had titanium dioxide? But the Japanese list on the packaging itself has never shown titanium dioxide.

[@mtmg3648]

Scinic super mild sun essence is my absolute favorite I have the madagascar centella, but it is SO watery I question the level of protection. Beauty of Joseon is good, too, but Scinic is the best hands down.

[@AmyOfEarth]

Thanks for showing the three pumps on the hand with the skin1004! I was not sure how to measure it with the pump as I usually do finger method.

[@neoroj]

Haha! Waited for weeks for you to get your hands on haru haru. I think I managed to be one of the first to get it 😂. Was well excited.

Not related to the topic of the video, but it would be great if you reviewed the skincare products at Aldi. They even have a water gel dupe.

[@sct4040]

I tried Stylevana, prices were good, but I didn’t realize they are located in HongKong and it took 1 month to get to New York City. 😢 BTW, Cosrx Aloe sunscreen is my favorite for the summer. Please try and review. ❤

[@cstewart3759]

Yes, I’m in Atlantic Canada and the shipping is always 3-4 weeks. I’ve come to just accept it, place my orders in advance and then it feels like Christmas when the box finally shows up. 😂

[@caseyfaist7204]

Skin1004 Hyala-cica and Rovectin sensitive skin are the only sunscreens I've tried that don't slide off my eyelids into my eyes, and the Skin1004 leaves much less of a white cast

[@lyrapeach1827]

Sucks so much that my skin can't tolerate niacinamide. So many wonderful products I can't try 😢

[@robertlouisebaker-hyde1267]

The Skin1004 Hyalu-Cica Sun serum is my holy grail Korean sunscreen. Best overall xD

[@ramcess6075]

Have you tried the BOJ one?

[@robertlouisebaker-hyde1267]

@@ramcess6075 I did. It burned my eyeballs xD

[@Emmazz1412]

Does it sting ur eyes?

[@amberqureshi2310]

Dr. Dray, thank you for continuing to create such informative content. I wanted to see if you can recommend a Korean sunscreen suitable for sensitive skin. In my understanding, Korean sunscreens don't clearly label if a sunscreen is mineral, and due to extreme sensitivity to chemical sunscreens, I don't want to try anything that would produce an adverse effect. I am currently using Drmtlgy spf 46 mineral sunscreen. Thank you! Amber

[@DrDrayzday]

The haruharu one is great for sensitive skin

[@silvahawk]

Not sure why but the Haru Haru sunscreen stung my face when I first put it on, happened both times I used it, so I ended up using it for body only

[@vittoriafisher]

Also felt kinda stinging. Did it dry you out?

[@silvahawk]

@@vittoriafisher for me it's pretty hydrating, no drying just stinging

[@emilyhilburn9584]

Dr. Dray! I think it might be important to note that tone up creams in Korea and other Asian countries are meant to be skin whitening or leave the appearance of a lighter skin tone for beautification purposes. Kind of like make up..

[@lesleyhenry7999]

I’ve learned not to stray from the Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel. Doesn’t burn my eyes and dries back not shiny on my oily skin. Great under makeup, too.

[@patsRN]

Beauty of Joseon, Biore Light Up Essence and Anessa are my go to sunscreens…

[@cp4184]

Any of the Dr. G sunscreens are great. Thanks for the K / J beauty sunscreens. I think they are superior to American brands.

[@chrisanndunn8814]

Love the Skin Aqua, works very well with my oily skin. Happy Friday doc.
