Best Korean Sunscreens For Dry, Sensitive Skin | Cozy Skincare Chat | Testing a UV Camera

Hi hi 🌱 How has your week been? With summer just around the corner, I thought it would be fun to review some popular Korean sunscreens for dry, sensitive, and acne prone skin. In general, I find Korean sunscreens to be really moisturizing and calming to the skin. Today, I’m reviewing 7 of my favorite sunscreens, including both physical and chemical sunscreens, as well as a sun stick. What sunscreen have you been loving?

Congrats on 1K!!🎉

[@maizenlife]

Dahhh thank you so much!! Thanks to you! Always so grateful for your support and comments 🥰 It really means so much 🫶

[@ixchel231]

L❤ve Korean sunscreens! Love the Skin1004 one, BOJ is nice a little more heavier. My sister loves the Round Lab one, I'll be trying that next. I'm trying right now Iunik's centella calming daily sunscreen, not sure how I feel about it yet, leaves a little white cast at the beginning for me. I wanted to like the isntree one but maybe bc the first time I tried it was over a different sunscreen during the day it was too dewy and shiny for me. Gave it to a coworker with dry skin and she really liked it!😊 Will be putting the anua one on my wishlist. 😁

[@maizenlife]

Oooh I’ve never heard of the Iunik’s sunscreen - is it a physical sunscreen? I wonder if that’s why there was a stronger white cast? So sad the Isntree one didn’t work out :/ It definitely does have a dewy finish, but I also have really dry skin so I think that’s why it works so well with my skin type! I hope you like the Anua one - I find it a little less dewier than the Isntree one so hopefully it will work out 💛

[@TheRazgard]

Great reviews! I've loved using Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice and Probiotics for the last year. It doesn't add shine to my face like other options, so I don't look like a mirror in pics :) The Round Lab Sun Stick might be my perfect accessory for the upcoming summer

[@maizenlife]

Thank you so much for watching 🤗 So glad you like the boj’s relief sun - I also really like the finish it! And yesss out that sun stick! Makes reapplication of sunscreen such a breeze 😌

[@imaneyon7998]

Looving your videos, ❤im glad i found your channel since i just started my skincare journey and i love korean skincares, i also have dry sensitive skin and i just got the isntree sunscreen and im loving it so far

[@maizenlife]

Wow, thank you so much for your sweet message! So happy to hear you enjoy these videos and hope they can help 🫶 And so glad you love the Isntree sunscreen - it is my all time fav :)

[@menofmandiego]

More of these video’s please! So insightful!

[@maizenlife]

Thank you so much for watching ☺️ So happy to hear it was helpful 🫶

[@21shinaicox]

Recently I’ve been using the Skin1004 sunscreen in the winter and it was perfect with the extra moisture it provided 😊 for summer time, I’m using the Numbuzin sunscreen and have been enjoying it 👍🏻 I love Korean sunscreens 🧴 and love this video! 💕

[@maizenlife]

Thank you so much for watching Shinai 🫶 I love the Skin1004 too! Will have to try the Numbuzin one - I didn’t know they had a sunscreen 😮

[@lukastemberger]

It's extremely greasy, I was really disappointed. Everyone is hyping it, but I'm embarrassed to leave the house after putting it on. Haruharu is the only acceptable one for me after trying 7 Korean sunscreens. Even that one is a bit too greasy, but the best of the bunch.

[@maizenlife]

I still have to try the Haruharu one! Noticed a lot of good reviews about it and it seems really hydrating. I've heard it's not as lightweight as some of the other Korean sunscreens though? Was that your experience?

[@lukastemberger]

@@maizenlife Yeah, it's not as lightweight, but I don't mind that. The ones that are thinner and more lightweight leave my skin very greasy and shiny looking. Haruharu feels a bit thicker, but not to the point where it's heavy on the skin. And it just adds to moisturizing because it feels like it has more occlusives.

[@maizenlife]

@lukastemberger I’m going to have to try it! Sounds like a really nice finish!

[@erbtui]

Love your content and VERY high quality but omg what happened with the sound on this vid?

[@maizenlife]

Oh gosh - first of all, thank you for the kind words and for your feedback! It's pretty muffled, right? I upgraded to a new mic and must have gotten the settings wrong 😅 I even did a test shoot before recording so I don't know what happened there. I'm experimenting more this week and will hopefully have much better audio for the next one🤞

[@simonk8954]

I've tried all of these and although they are okay, nothing comes close to haruharu wonder (yellow tube, chemical) SPF.

[@maizenlife]

I've heard great things about that one! Wow, I'm going to have to try it 👀
