Korean Sunscreen This or That! BOJ, Isntree, SKIN1004 ep. 19 | AD

[@SaraHungary]

Chemist here 😁 tButyl alcohol is actually a solid in room temperature (it has a melting point at 26 °C) so it is not that easily vaporable like ethyl alcohol (alcohol denat.). I think tButyl alcohol is mostly a cosolvent in formulations, it helps dissolving components which don't usually dissolve in water.

Thank you for sharing this info!!

Skin1004 is the one that works for my extremely oily skin.. Hydrated but never greasy .. i love the Boj too . But skin1004 just gave me oil free grease free skin.. And i use it with isntree green tea toner..

[@mrunalpatel6729]

Hi :) Could I ask do you use any moisturiser beneath it? If so which one?

[@Emmazz1412]

Is skin 1004 & BOJ eye stinging because the skin 1004 mineral ones really hurt my skin and eyes..?Is it greasy on combo dehydrated sensitive skin?

[@cmnguyen221]

I purchased the SKIN1004 sunscreen last month on a whim even though I couldn’t find any reviews on it. I LOVE it for all the reasons you gave. Trying to find sunscreens that give a more matte/natural finish for oily skin has been so difficult and this product came at the perfect time

[@KellyDriscoll]

Oh wow, I'm so glad to hear you're loving it too!!

[@Dasming]

Hi Kelly skin 1004 is actually pronounced skin chun-sa. 1004 is pronounced as “chun sa” in Korean which also happens to mean angel so you’re really saying skin angel 😇

[@mcappperspective6099]

For those looking for alternative the SCINIC ENJOY SUPER MILD SUN ESSENCE is another korean brand that deserves more attention because it also has nice ingredients and better overall UV filters than Isntree, skin1004 and BoJ. Key Ingredients: Anti-acne: Niacinamide Antioxidant: Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract Skin-identical ingredient: Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate Soothing: Panthenol *UV filters: Uvinul A Plus, Tinosorb S, Parsol SLX, Tinosorb M, Uvinul T 150, Uvasorb HEB Parsol Slx and Tinosorb S is missing from BoJ and Skin1004 while Isntree has no Uvasorb HEB. thus, scinic should be better in terms of UV protection and also less expensive than those 3 sunscreen mentioned in the video.

[@KellyDriscoll]

Sounds so good, thanks for sharing!

[@heyj207]

and its water resistant too so u need to double cleanse

[@job7604]

the isntree was an absolute oil slick on me. i needed 3 oil absorbing sheets just to feel comfortable enough to relax in my own house. i dont even have very oily skin. BOJ not nearly as oily although i dont use moisturizer under sunscreen and it is sometimes a bit too radiant for my taste. it's one of if not my favorite though. recently tried skin aqua super moisture milk and it's fantastic. might beat out BOJ even. very little if any radiance - pretty much just a natural finish but not drying at all

[@hollyhuffman244]

which skin aqua milk? What was it that you liked about it? Have you tried any of these under makeup? :)

[@Emmazz1412]

Hada Labo has some good ranges of sunscreen..The premium whitening one doesnt really make my combo dehyrated skin oily but the quantity is too small

[@Mindmint93]

From my experience the following sunscreens are very similar in texture (and smell) Isntree = Goodal Calming (less moisturizing) Round Lab Birch = Beauty of Joseon (less moisturizing) But Goodal has exact same filters as Beauty of Joseon I haven’t tried Skin 1004, will definitely give it a try tho

How is it

[@Iron_Sea]

Thanks, Kelly! My issue with all these sunscreens is that each of them have niacinamide in it. I love niacinamide, but last couple of months my skin reacts badly on it. And I wish to try BOFJ and Isntree sunscreens but I have my doubts.

[@ashleylamb1000]

I use my sunscreen as my moisturizer & have been loving the Hero Sunscreen, but it is only SPF 30. With my autoimmune disease...SPF 50 or stronger is really what is suggested for me to use. It is just really hard to find an SPF 50 that is comfortable on my skin as the rash I get can be very painful. The Skin1004 sounds like a blessing to me, & with my combo skin, it looks like it just may work. I am going to have to add it to my cart! Thank you for this & for all you do to help us on our skin journey. We all truly appreciate you!

[@masonjeq4261]

Fantastic review as usual and while I've only tried the BoJ sunscreen the others look like good options. I've also tried the Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Air-Fit sunscreen (mineral based I believe) and though it has a slight white cast its definitely one of the best mineral sunscreens I've tried so I imagine their chemical version is even better as I normally prefer chemical.

[@KellyDriscoll]

Oh nice! SKIN1004 has expanded their range of SPF's recently, I'm testing a few more now and they are impressive!

[@tedoymisojos]

With shipping these dont end up being more affordable. I was upset at the creeping prices of Paulas Choice sunscreens, now at $35 per 2oz(60ml), but even at that price they are actually cheaper per ml than my other regular' the Hero spf 30 sunscreen at 1.7oz (50ml) per $20. 😑. Sunscreen that isnt greasy is becoming more and more a luxury.

[@mignonalverson655]

I've noticed that over the last year with sunscreen becoming more of a luxury then a need. It's stressing me out too.

[@Radjehuty]

Are you ordering from Stylevana? They're free shipping on orders $48 or more. I just stock up using them when they have a sale. I grabbed 3x BOJ for $7.50 each and a couple other sunscreens I haven't tried and didn't pay any shipping at all.

The skin angel 😇 one sounds good I like the thought of not feeling it I still haven't found a sunscreen I like more the canmake mermaid essence I just ordered the crazy expensive Tatcha one but they came out with a mini size for 25$ so I thought that would be the best way to try it and not go broke spending 60$ on it and maybe not liking it or even worse liking it then really wanting it in my routine at 60$..lol I have the BOJ one I need to try it out again because I don't think my skin was having it the first time but now that my skin is doing good I should give it another try. I have heard great thing about the isntree but it's the HA that gets me it's in everything and it's not my favorite ingredient alot of it tends to dry out and make my skin feel like it's burning so I am alittle scared that could be the case with the isntree islf it has high amounts in it .

Kelly, I have a question for you. When a product you are trying irritates you and your skin feels sensitized, what are the products that save you and how long does it take you to return to normal?

[@lorainemcgillivray77]

Hi Kelly I tried the BofJ spf after seeing all the hype. Unfortunately on patch testing (as I do with all new products) I developed a rash from it, so it's really not for me. Normally the newer generation filters are better on me (despite having both rosacea and eczema) and although not something my skin tolerates well on an everyday basis, I can usually use them a few days a week (I also use mineral spf's on an incidental sun basis). This one was a firm no from me and my skin isn't keen on a lot of HA, so the Isntree is not something I think would work either (both due to the HA and the older filters used). I haven't really gone back to K beauty spf's after all the issues with the purito spf I used prior to the debacle, but dipped my toe in the water with the BofJ and had to give it away. I have spf's my skin tolerates from both a European chemical spf and some mineral spf's, so I don't really need to keep trying things my skin isn't happy with tbh. I have started to hear positive things about the skin 1004 spf and may try it at some stage, but I have very dry skin and probably need something a bit more emollient. Best wishes.

[@KellyDriscoll]

Definitely no need to test out new stuff if you have spf that works, especially with very sensitive skin, it's always such a gamble!

[@mignonalverson655]

Your skin sounds EXACTLY like mine! I have tried COUNTLESS sunscreens. They all end up irritating my face and eyes or one over the other. Mineral sunscreens DRY my face out so bad. My face is NOT having any American sunscreens whatsoever. 😭. I'm at total loss and seriously ready to give up. I can't keep wasting money on sunscreen and getting my hopes up. Even Korean and Japanese sunscreens have irritated my face. Rosacea sucks. Dry skin sucks. Sensitive skin sucks. 😭. I totally understand what you're going through.

[@lorainemcgillivray77]

@@mignonalverson655 Yes they do. The least drying mineral spf's I have tried are: Paula's choice calm spf30 (available in a 15ml mini size to try) Colourscience original spf50 Avene mineral spf50 The most hydrating of all is the skinceuticals mineral spf50 lotion. I hope that helps and I too have had A LOT of trial and error. Under each of them I use my whole skincare routine including moisturiser. I allow that to settle down and then apply the spf. I can’t use any of these without my moisturiser underneath. I find mineral less irritating than chemical but it is drying due to the zinc. I do wear it but my other products compensate for the slight drying effect even these have (despite being the least drying I have tried). It’s so important for rosacea to wear it that l work around it. X

Just stick to mineral. Try beplain mineral sunscreen. It's really moisturizing though it takes a bit of time to absorb if you're planning to apply makeup right after.

[@KellyDriscoll]

Oh no! It's possible one of the sunscreen filters just don't agree with your skin, it helps to keep track of the ones that didn't work and maybe compare to ones that do work for you. It's a process of elimination but can help you figure out what ingredients work or don't work for your skin.

[@lonerebeI]

If you have sensitivity around the eyes, do NOT buy the Isntree sunscreen

The older generation chemical filters in that SPF can cause sensitivity in the eye area, best to go with mineral or try the new generation chemical filters in those cases.
