Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++.

"I grew to love this one more though and it's geared towards more oily skin, this one's geared more towards dry skin. It feels nice on my skin. I didn't have any issues using it in Europe with no issues with sunburn, redness, or freckling. For what this promises, they promise a more hydrated version of Beauty of Joseon's best-loving sunscreen, protects all skin type users from strong UV rays, enhance skin's moisture barrier, offers instant calming effect for irritated and dry skin, gently nourish skin and promote a healthy looking and plump complexion leaving a refreshing finish without any white cast or sticky feeling. I tend to agree with most of those promises and the ingredients in this product back up those claims. It protects you from the strong UV rays. It's got skin-identical ingredients, it's got soothing ingredients, it's got skin-protecting ingredients, antioxidants, vitamin E, and ferulic acid. So I tend to agree with those claims."

"Oh here's another sunscreen the beauty of joelson I don't know I must have like thrown these in at the last minute I'm not sure why"

"I really really used to hate this stuff and this winter towards the end of this winter I found myself using it and actually not hating it. When I used it initially I thought it was kind of on the greasy side, but my skin's gotten a little bit drier in the last few months, especially with some laser treatments I've been doing at home. It does take some blending and smoothing to get it right, and it has a little bit of white cast, but overall I've ended up liking it and now I've been reaching for it lately. I love that it has no smell at all."

"This one is the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++. I loved it."

"So this one came out and I didn't even look at the ingredients list, I just ordered it, and my first test of it, it had fragrance in it, so I was a little bit disappointed by that, but everything else about it is nice. Apparently they're coming out with a fragrance free formula. They say this nourishing serum features SPF 50 plus PA plus plus plus to protect skin against harmful UV rays, infused with ginseng extract, the anti aging formula enhances skin elasticity and keeps skin hydrated, formulated with two percent niacinamide to brighten skin for a glowing appearance, and a lightweight texture that melts onto the skin without a sticky after feel. My first criteria on this one is packaging, it's just a pump bottle, very nice, although I really like a good old fashioned squeeze tube, that works too. In terms of denatured or drying types of alcohol, it does contain alcohol, it's the sixth ingredient, and apparently that's why they included the fragrance, to cover up the smell of the alcohol, which I'd rather they didn't. Alcohol really doesn't have much smell, I mean it has an initial smell but it goes away within seconds, and I'm starting to get over alcohol in sunscreens, because it does help sunscreens set better and feel less greasy."

"Beauty of Joseon came out with a new sunscreen but it looks like it uses filters and I still ordered it anyway."

"I'm retesting the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen."

"This stuff sucks, it's sad and it's depressing, but that's what we get in the US."

"I've been liking the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen up until today. It just feels like it's not friendly with this other sunscreen I'm testing. I've used it now with three or four other sunscreens and it seemed to work well with most of them, but today it just doesn't seem to love it, and I'm not exactly sure why, it might just be that my skin is particularly irritated from allergies today."

"It's worked well most of the days. I've been testing it, yesterday or the day before I didn't love the finish, it left me looking a little pink and I didn't love that. But the rest of the days it seemed to work and give decent coverage. I don't dislike how it looks over my other sunscreen, it doesn't end up looking too greasy and it doesn't look flaky, so I think it's okay."

"This one is a little more oily than Round Lab, so it's better for dry or mature skin. It's affordable and performs great. This is an easy S tier."

"I tested both the US and Korea versions of this famous sunscreen. The US one is not hydrating enough, but the Korean version is way better, great for extremely dry mature skin with a glow. Just watch out for the eye stinging thing though."

"Compared to Round Lab, about 30% of the ingredients are similar, and if I do a blind test I honestly can't tell the difference. Both are great, I love both, just get whatever is on sale, or if you've only tried one, try the other, it's great. It feels amazing, so many people in my class ask me what sunscreen this is. Just keep in mind some people are allergic to the ingredients."

"This is the original Beauty of Joseon sunscreen. It's better for more oily combo skin because it just feels like a moisturizer, though some people with oily combo skin or in tropical weather might find it a little too greasy. I had my husband, who's more oily combo skin and hates anything sticky, try it out and he definitely loved it, it goes into the skin more quickly. So I think you can try it, I like this one a lot better."

"Beauty of Joseon and Round Lab are made by the same manufacturer, a lot of the ingredients, even the order, are similar, so when I tried them side by side I honestly couldn't tell much difference, I liked both. Some reviews say the original Beauty of Joseon version is too oily, they released a new version called Fresh that's actually better, no white cast, it's a beautiful sunscreen, great to wear before makeup."

"This is my number one pick from Beauty of Joseon, their popular sunscreen. Both the original and the new version are chemical sunscreens, and if you're sensitive, some reviewers say their eyes get itchy. It's so lightweight that even if you layer it several times it doesn't peel and it absorbs well, and it's glowy after application, but it doesn't last long. You need to use a cleansing oil to remove it because it's water resistant, so it's hard to wash off with a cleansing foam. As a dry skin type, I love it and it's great under makeup. I highly recommend it if you have oily or combo skin, or if you live somewhere tropical, because the older version feels more oily while the newer one has a more watery, fresh texture. I'm pretty sensitive about scent though, and I don't like the scent on the older one, it's a lot stronger than the new one. They also upgraded the packaging, since the old tube got dirty easily, and it's easier to squeeze now because the discharge port is longer."

"This blends so well, it feels a little shiny for a few minutes and then it feels like nothing is there, so it works great under makeup and it's affordable enough to be a good gift. Compared to the other one, it is more resistant to water and friction so it lasts longer even during exercise and outdoor activities, and it has a rice extract that helps soothe my skin and protect my skin barrier. It blends in so well and is easy to reapply."

"This sunscreen is the superstar of the K-beauty products. I squeeze out a good amount, apply it, let it absorb for about a minute, then apply a little more. It works for all skin types, amazing."

"Beauty of Joseon's sunscreen is amazing for oily skin, and it's totally okay for dry to combination skin too."

"This one is great too. Compared to B Ready it's a little more moisturizing, it's amazing, I feel like a moisturizer, it feels great. It's a chemical sunscreen though, so if you have very sensitive skin it can sting your eyes."

"Whenever I use this sunscreen I can feel the alcohol in it, but I never thought it was a big deal. Makeup artists love to use it because it makes makeup application really smooth, it's a makeup friendly sunscreen, so I thought that was kind of standard. But I was surprised how many people brought up the alcohol, so be a little careful and cautious with it if that concerns you."

"This is not sticky, has no whiteness, and blends into my skin smoothly, it's really similar to Round Lab since they're made by the same manufacturer. But I don't intend to repurchase it because I found a more moisturizing and cheaper product than these."

"The viral Beauty of Joseon rice relief sunscreen, an absolute A-plus Korean sunscreen which now has a US counterpart. [...] This doesn't actually have the same SPF protection. The US one is SPF 40 versus SPF 50 plus in the Korean version. It has completely different filters and a completely different base profile. It is a completely different sunscreen but in very similar packaging designed to look the same."

"In fourth place is the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++. Loved this, I still do, still a great formulation. [...] I just think over time our opinions evolve and we try new things, and [...] the sunscreens are really evolving at the moment, so a product like this that was my favorite 18 months ago might not be my favorite now. [...] It's still [...] a really, really gorgeous sunscreen."

"If you know about sunscreen legislation really it shouldn't have been a surprise I think it just came out of nowhere which is where that shock Factor came in"

"It feels like a lot of standard Korean sunscreens, way better than thick gloopy horrible sunscreens. [...] I'd give it like a 9 out of 10. It's a great product. It's a really really good product if you can get it, definitely try it. Your skin will love it. It's really really good."

"The new version is garbage, absolute garbage. It's a range of tinted mineral sunscreens and initially it looked quite promising. I like the fact that they had multiple different tint shades so no matter what your skin tone there should be an option that you can make work for you. I like the fact that they'd put some thought behind the formulation and other beneficial skincare ingredients and I think it looked promising. Most of the reviews though have been very subpar and my own experience with it is it just balled up and peeled on the skin so bad you couldn't lay it on top to get more coverage, you couldn't reapply it, it just didn't sit right. And the tint is so sheer it might as well not exist. The tint is so sheer it might as well not exist and yet somehow it still manages to be a little bit ashy and a bit white casty on the skin. Not a good product."

"It's not my favorite Korean sunscreen, which is why it's not in the top 10, but it's good. It's really good and it's really affordable. So if you're looking for a low price point entry product into Korean sunscreens, this would be a great option for you. [...] It sinks in so quickly, it's affordable, it looks great on the skin, [...] it's fragrance-free. It ticks loads of boxes for me. I just prefer some of the other ones, [...] but I don't want anyone's takeaway to be that this is a bad product. It's not. It's still going strong four years after it launched, having yet another viral moment on TikTok. It's a good product, and if [...] there's a teenager in your life getting into sunscreen and you want to treat them to a super popular viral product, this will get them hooked."

"This is the Beauty of Joseon Rice Relief Sunscreen. It used to be my absolute favorite sunscreen, but they've just launched a new updated version. That one has so many great ingredients, like beta glucan, it's got antioxidants in there, it's got even more of that calming anti-inflammatory rice. The new version is so much better than this version. This one was already good, but the new version's even better, so I probably wouldn't buy this one. If you're currently using the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen, next time you come to buy, buy the new version because it's so much better."

"This is the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++. Over the past five years this is the sunscreen that I have used and repurchased the most. I don't actually use it as much now, there are a lot of new sunscreens I'm using and I have some others I prefer more now, but I think this was the first truly lightweight and invisible sunscreen that captured the market, and [...] in terms of sunscreens I've repurchased most over the years, this wins hands down."

"The newer Beauty of Joseon sunscreen in the slightly bluish packaging is really good and the best one for oily skin, super light. Some people have said it stings for them, though that has not always been my experience."

"Chemical you can find in K beauty products. Say Beauty of Joseon. Those are very lightweight. They have very little chance of causing a white cast. That's good for those who are acne prone who don't want a thick sunscreen that could clog up their pores."

"Beauty of Joseon has done a great job with their sunscreens as well. Go ahead and apply their Relief Rice Probiotic sunscreen during the day."

"What I like about Beauty of Joseon, that K beauty brand, is that they have come out with different shades and gone above and beyond. They've come out with 12 diverse shades, so kudos to them for putting in the time to make various shades for various skin tones. I started off with just their lighter shade, which is zinc oxide only with iron oxide, and right now it blends in quite nicely into my skin and compliments my skin tone quite well."

"Their relief Sun rice plus probiotics SPF 50 plus pa4 plus sunscreen that's gone viral and I can totally see why this is a solid one [...] lightweight definitely gives you a nice Balan look it's not matte it's not too dewy it's just a great finish to it and quite affordable"

"Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun is one of the SPFs I love the formulation of for dry skin. I find that it sits better on dry skin and doesn't leave your skin feeling stripped."

"For sunscreen, oily skin, I recommend Beauty of Joseon. Their sun serum has no oils, it's amazing for oily skin, my skin is dewy and moist, it's just everything that I've ever wanted from a sunscreen."

"The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice Plus Probiotics are the same category as the Skin 1004 sunscreens. I really enjoy them, but they have a slightly more dewy finish and are a little more hydrating, so I tend to use them more in the colder months and the Skin 1004 ones in warmer months. You don't need both."

"To finish my morning routine, sunscreen, one of the lovely hydrating options. I currently have the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ open."

"The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50 is one I keep repurchasing for the colder months. [...] I could probably do with either the Beauty of Joseon or the SKIN1004 one, but I like to have options."

"The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF50+, I've gone through numerous tubes of that. Very lovely, very moisturizing, perfect for my skin in the colder months."

"The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ is one I use more during milder weather or in winter, and I have already repurchased it."

"I also still like the Beauty of Joseon [...] sunscreen. It works well underneath makeup, it's hydrating, and it's what I reach for when I'm not outdoors exercising or sweating or at the beach."

"For the rest of the year it would be this one."

"The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ is one he enjoys, meaning we can now share a sunscreen."

"I finished one of the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ [...] and am currently using a second tube. This is one of the four I would repurchase."

"This is my favorite sunscreen from Beauty of Joseon. This is their Relief Sun rice and probiotics. Basically, this is the one for people with oily acne prone skin."

"I used this one all over my body. This is actually a sunscreen for the face, but it was too heavy for my face."

"I'm just happy to see an eighteen dollar sunscreen at Sephora, but I have to be honest, this is not the cult favorite sunscreen everyone has been asking about. It's a new FDA compliant sunscreen made just for the US market, so it's taking everything that made the original viral sunscreen so good and subtracting twenty six years of filter research and breakthroughs. That doesn't mean it's necessarily going to be a bad sunscreen, and it is water resistant, which is exciting, but what I really don't like is that I have no idea what filters they're using in it. The ingredients page doesn't list the filters, and as someone with allergies that really bothers me."

"I finished my Beauty of Joseon ginseng moist sun serum, this is that newer formulation and I really liked it. It does have some essential oils, which I know isn't for everybody, but I absolutely loved the texture. I'd put on two full finger lengths as a primer and then put my makeup on, and it sat so well. I really hope we can still get it, it was absolutely my favorite sunscreen to wear under makeup."

"This sunscreen is next level, absolutely no white cast, incredible no matter your skin tone, incredibly fast to apply, such quality sunscreen."

"There are beautiful sunscreens available for what, $10, Beauty of Joseon's new sunscreen is incredible."

"When I added this to my cart I really thought it was just the version two of Kolmar's sunscreen formula, but this is not Gen 2, this is Kolmar's Gen 3, and I absolutely feel like we have leveled up here. It has all of those lightweight characteristics, absolutely no white cast, it feels like nothing on my skin, while still having SPF50 plus PA4 plus, and I feel like this is an even better blend of filters. I feel like this is better in every single way, and it's so exciting for me to feel this way because I found myself getting a little bored of the brand, but I love this sunscreen."

"I bought another one of these and I already plowed through it. I think I might have to admit to myself that this is my favorite sunscreen, because I like it as a primer."

"This has been one of the absolute bestselling K beauty sunscreens for a while. The formula itself is great, so much more advanced than any American sunscreen, but it's not exclusive to Beauty of Joseon's product, other sunscreens use the same formula and are always less expensive. It does start off looking a bit white on the skin, and I've heard it doesn't work on deeper skin tones. I won't buy that one again because I like the newer formula, without tinosorb M in it, more."

"This is my biggest surprise of the year. This sunscreen released to a lot of controversy because Beauty of Joseon went in the direction of including both alcohol and fragrance, which they hadn't done in ages, they'd switched to a fragrance free direction and people were surprised by it. I'm even more surprised to have actually tried it though, because to me it doesn't really have much of a scent, it seems like they're using those fragrance and essential oil ingredients to help mask the smell of the filters themselves. What they ended up with is the clearest sunscreen out of all ten in this video, it truly applies like a gel and it is so fast to apply. I'm calling this my favorite sunscreen to use as a primer because it's such an interesting and different formula from everything else. I think the reason it works so well under makeup is that you don't need to take as much time with it, partially because of the denatured alcohol in the product, which helps it dry up faster, and yet it still has a bit of a moist primer like sensation on the skin that makes it so perfect for under makeup. That's the sunscreen I'm wearing today. If you're avoiding alcohol and fragrance in your sunscreens there's no need to buy this, but I'm saying this is my standout because of that speed aspect, it's perfection for rushed mornings."

"I was hesitant to buy this because it does include some fragrance and some alcohol, and I don't love that it comes in a pump instead of a squeeze tube, so points were deducted there. But when I put it on my skin I could barely smell the fragrance and it applied so fast and easily. Then I tried it under makeup and it is an incredible sunscreen to use as a primer under foundation, that surprising moist sensation is exactly what makes it work so well there. I went from concerned to now telling you I actually love this. It's not a heavy moisturizing primer, so it might be more for oily to combo skin, but that's the exact characteristic that makes it perfect for under foundation."

"For 10 bucks this sunscreen also doubles up as a nice moisturizer especially if you have dry skin it is a beautiful product can't be beat I think it's cheaper than McDonald's nowadays and it is fragrance free."

"This is an SPF 50 PA4+ and it is a beautiful lightweight, light hydrating sunscreen. In summer, I sometimes do not feel the need [...] to use a moisturizer underneath this, it gets me to where I need to go. In winter, as things get drier, yes, you can use a moisturizer underneath it. It is great for soothing your skin, reducing inflammation, and helping with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation because it has not only niacinamide in it, it also has chamomile extract. Everything I love about it is glycerin based. The filters in it are international filters, there's Avobenzone, Tinosorb S, Tinosorb M, as well as Isotropol, and this does offer a great UVA protective range. It's a hybrid of both chemical and physical sunscreens, so it's a great one. I absolutely love it. I think you guys should look into it, and it is relatively cheap and easy to get."

"Beauty of Joseon is also really nice."

"This absorbs into your skin super fast and just leaves you with the most amazing glow. I have used this so many times, I'm even using it right now. It is one of the best sunscreens that I have used. [...] It's absolutely amazing."

"Beauty of Joseon is a great chemical sunscreen with the more advanced filters, one of my all-time favorite sunscreens."

"I love the sunscreen it just gives and you don't even need in my opinion even if you have dry skin you don't really need a moisturizer with it. I just think it's one of the best. It's not great for sports, you know, it's not waterproof or anything and it is a chemical sunscreen, it's not mineral."

"The Beauty of Joseon is a beautiful sunscreen with some of the higher technology SPF filters. It's super hydrating. I definitely miss it for my winter skincare routine because it's a sunscreen that's actually even a little bit more hydrating than the Dermatology one. It's very inexpensive. It's one that kind of fell off my radar in 2023 and I'm definitely missing it and wanting to repurchase."

"If you're familiar with the Beauty of Joseon, I picked up another tube of this and it's one of my absolute favorite sunscreens of all time. I love it, and if you haven't tried it, give it a try, especially if you have dry skin, you'll love it. If you have oily skin, you might not love it so much."

"Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics launched in 2022 and was one of my absolute favorite sunscreens of that year. I kind of forgot about it while looking for my favorite mineral sunscreen in 2023, but I am going to repurchase it -- I'd forgotten how much I love it. It is a beautiful sunscreen; it is a chemical sunscreen but it has advanced filters. Absolutely fabulous sunscreen, and I'm not surprised it made it to the top sunscreen pick."

"Their sunscreen is one I love, along with their oil cleanser."

"If they're using the one that I'm thinking of, the sunscreen might be a little too moisturizing for your skin."

"Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun which I love, it's beautiful, I love it so much. It specifically says non-greasy and velvety finish. I've had such a problem with oiliness in my T-zone with other sunscreens, but [...] so far this isn't giving me any oiliness. It's great."

"I have my Beauty of Joseon sunscreen, this is the Relief Sun rice and probiotics sunscreen, it's SPF 50. The best one. So I always have one in my travel bag because I cannot live without it. It's the only one that works for my face. I'm wearing it today. It's so good."

"I applied my Beauty of Joseon sunscreen. I'm wearing SPF 50 right now."

"Beauty of Joseon is a great sunscreen, but if you look at the filters, it's different in the US market now than it is in the Korean market. It still has a great feel to it, but it's just not the same."

"They sent me the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun a while back and I have loved using it. It's a very lightweight Korean sunscreen that does not sit heavy on the skin, and I use it all the time, even all the way up over my head. It provides SPF 50 level protection without leaving a heavy feeling on the skin. This is a great option for those with acne prone skin who tend to produce a lot of oil, because it's not going to add another layer on top that feels really heavy."

"This is a really good sunscreen. It's lightweight, it's clear, it's elegant, it's very serumy, and I completely understand why people love it. But I kept comparing it to the Relief Sun, and for my skin, it just wins out every time, because the Relief Sun is slightly richer and more nourishing, and as my skin gets drier with age, I've realized I just want a richer, cushier finish. Gary actually finished this one, so this is a Gary empty."

"This is a Korean chemical sunscreen and I know people don't like chemical sunscreens but I'm telling you guys even the most sensitive skin can wear this. It has rice and grain fermented extracts that are rich in vitamins C and E, it contains niacinamide, it has amino acids, minerals, glycerin. But what I love so much about this is the hydration levels that it gives my skin. SPFs can be that kind of mandatory phase but if you can find one that leaves your skin feeling and looking the way that you want, you are onto a winner. For me this kind of gives me that glowy, that sort of hydrated look which is what I'm always forever chasing. The thing is I really layer up my SPF, I throw a ton of the stuff on, I do a very thick layer and then I go in and do another thick layer and everything just soaks in and it just leaves me looking very healthy. A lot of times I don't wear makeup at all and I don't feel that I need it and I'm getting the hydration levels that I need plus flawless under makeup. It's just perfection. [...] If you have dehydrated skin, drier skin, this is going to be really good."

"It is the SPF that got me into Korean SPFs and I did not realize how good it could be. It is so inexpensive. It is beautiful on the skin, the finish is wonderful. It is one I keep going back to, it is excellent. I think it's good for all skin types. I like hydrating formulas, but I know oily-skinned people who love it. The Korean SPFs, they're phenomenal, better than a lot of American brands without a doubt."

"I don't find it as mattifying, because I did the test myself too. I also have the one from Beauty of Joseon, and it's not as mattifying but it's less dewy than the Tocobo one."

"The Beauty of Joseon sunscreen is lovely and has not been irritating for my skin. It's fragrance free."

"Rice water has a lot of benefits for the skin. I'd say they mostly focus around hydration, soothing redness and sensitivity. [...] One of my favorite sunscreens, the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen, has rice in it. So many Korean skincare products have rice water in them."

"The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice and Probiotics SPF 50 sunscreen [...] is an awesome sunscreen. If you are wanting a little bit more of a moisturizing experience, but still that incredible Korean zero white cast lightweight experience, [...] this one is definitely a little bit more nourishing and moisturizing, and definitely better for combination to drier skin. Compared to US sunscreens, it's still really lightweight. It's an incredible sunscreen that has held up after so many years of using it. I absolutely love it."

"The Beauty of Joseon SPF 50 formula is an absolutely incredible formula and one of the main reasons is because there is literally zero white cast. It literally feels like a lightweight moisturizer. Most of the ones I've used are very lightweight on the skin and they're significantly more affordable than a lot of USA sunscreens. The only downside I would say is that they do have to be shipped internationally so sometimes they can take longer to get to you, and if you're someone who just wants to drop by Target and get a sunscreen you're not gonna find these because technically they're not legal to sell in the US. But they are the absolute best, no competition."

"The very famous SPF 50 formula that I absolutely love and I've recommended so many times on my channel. Definitely great if you're someone who has more dry, dehydrated skin and want a little bit of that extra glow."

"This is the daytime sunscreen by Beauty of Joseon. And this is actually available at Sephora. And this is using American filters. So it's got benzene and homosalate, octinoxate. It still blends really nicely because they're still applying that same philosophy around that experiential skincare that you get from any Korean brand. So, still a phenomenal sunscreen. Maybe not as elegant or maybe Dr. Maxwell doesn't love it as much, but it's still really nice."

"I like the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen a lot, actually."

"I like it, I like it. I still like the other one better, the rice probiotic one. I do like it, it wasn't irritating at all. $21."

"I think sunscreens are still their favorite. [...] I just love that rice relief sunscreen, it's been one of my favorites, go-to. I have it with me traveling, I also have it at home, at least four versions of this I use everywhere. They are known for their sunscreens, they make incredible sunscreens."

"If I had to pick one Korean sunscreen, I'm still going to go with the Beauty of Joseon. This one is just my go to, I feel like it's such a good hydrator. I still say it's better than almost 90% of the moisturizers you're going to put on your skin, especially if you have a little bit of normal to oily combination skin. I think it just lays nice. I actually picked one of these up in Europe, and I went out of my way to get the Korean version. It's one of my favorites of all time, still a go to years later."

"One of my favorite sunscreens of all time is the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice and Probiotics. This sunscreen has aged beautifully over time. There have been new sunscreens that have come out, but this is still one of my all time favorites. It blends hydrating like nothing else."

"Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++ [...] makes it into basically all of my sunscreen videos. [...] This was really the first sunscreen I ever tried that gave me that moment of like whoa sunscreen can be incredible because it's lightweight, it's moisturizing, there's no white cast on me, it doesn't aggravate my rosacea, and for that reason I feel like this is such a go-to recommendation not just for me but from so many people in the skincare community whether they're estheticians or dermatologists or creators. It's just fabulous."

"I've run through the entire tube this summer. This was in my Holy Grail skincare last year and I still love it. So many of you have tried it and say this was the first sunscreen that made me love sunscreen. The texture is incredible, it's just like a lightweight moisturizer. For many people this is the first sunscreen they've ever tried that just feels like lotion on the skin. It doesn't feel heavy or sticky like traditional sunscreen and also doesn't have that sunscreen smell."

"I love my Beauty of Joseon sunscreen. This is a Korean sunscreen, not the American version. [...] The reason I like Korean sunscreens so much is one, they have advanced UVA filters. So filters that we don't have access to in the United States that are superior and if you deal with hyperpigmentation, you are going to be more sensitive to UV than your average person. The other reason I like these products is a lot of Korean skincare routines are like 10 steps long. And so they've designed their sunscreen to layer well over a lot of products and not feel heavy. [...] What I will do with this is I will take one finger length, I will apply it, and then I will take a second finger length and apply it. And the reason I do it in two layers is because I find that if you do two at once, you're just doing a lot of smearing. And I feel like a lot of it ends up on like your hands or just like mushed around. And so I feel like you get a much better coating when you go in with two layers."

"Beauty of Joseon [...] Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++ is something I want to talk about [...] because of the way it sits under makeup and the way it goes on the skin. [...] It almost disappears on application. [...] It's not sticky or tacky. There's no white cast from it at all. This makes it the perfect prep for makeup. You can literally just use this as your moisturizer and go on top with your foundation. It works on oily skin, dry skin, dehydrated skin. You just need a good amount on each part of your face, break it down to forehead, cheeks, nose, and then tap that into the skin and your foundation is going to sit like a dream on top. There's also a ton of soothing ingredients and antioxidants in this sunscreen. So if your skin is quite sensitive, if sunscreens kind of irritate your skin, [...] this is going to be a great option for you to go for. [...] It's so lightweight. I can't even feel it. Sometimes sunscreens give you a warm feeling on the face. I can't even feel it. My dehydrated areas are smooth. My oily areas don't feel over prepped or greasy in any way."

"Um Beauty of Joan do two different options. So there's more of a lighter weight one and there's more of a medium weight one. None of them are really heavy."

"It's so, so light, and the brand has disclosed that they've used essential oils to help mask some of the raw skincare smell and some of the essence of the alcohol, just kind of creating more of a neutral scent overall, so it's not playing a heavy part in the experience of the sunscreen. The texture is a really unique gel type of texture, there's no cream or lotion involved here, this is a true straight gel texture, what you see is what you get. It spreads really evenly and beautifully and thinly across the skin. We've got a good dry time here because the denatured alcohol is really helping that process along quite well. It feels so light, so breathable, it is really remarkable how refreshing this feels on the skin. The finish I'd describe as sort of satin, but I think on certain skin types it's actually going to look a lot more dewy, maybe even a little bit more wet. My initial review was really noticing that this was more like I said, satiny, maybe a little bit dewy, but as I've played with this sunscreen a little bit more and taken in more feedback from different skin types, especially oily folks, I am finding that this is actually a lot more shiny than it first seemed in my initial testing. I also had a co-tester on this product who had more normal skin type and it didn't really show up for them, but it definitely does have a little bit more gloss to it."

"I still really like the Relief Sun. I will often gravitate towards this in the colder months, in the winter months, when my skin needs every ounce of moisture it can get, and this feels amazing on my skin. But I often put it away for the warmer months because it's a little heavy in that situation. If you're looking for something that's going to nourish dry skin, maybe be a little bit more protective in a colder climate, then the Relief Sun would be a great choice for you. I could not find many negatives, maybe the packaging, and I always think it's a negative if a sunscreen doesn't have a water resistant rating on it."

"It's SPF 50+ PA++++, it's a chemical sunscreen, and I think it offers really good protection. It's a sunscreen that feels really moisturizing. For folks who like to replace their moisturizer with their sunscreen, this is a really good one for that because it does offer a good amount of creamy moisture to the skin, and it can actually save a lot of time in the morning. I personally love it in the winter time because of that creamy moisture. I need every ounce of moisture that I can get on my skin, and our winters are really harsh. This is one of my favorite sunscreens for winter time. It has a really nice finish to it, it's not too shiny but just a little bit dewy. It works well underneath makeup for me, and I don't detect a white cast really on my skin until I layer this up two to three times."

"I do respect this sunscreen, but I cannot use it. I think it's definitely something that's going to work if you have an oily skin type, especially because there's no emolliency here, there's no wetness to it, there's no moisturization or shininess to it, so that gel texture is going to be a great match for your skin. Even combination folks are going to like this neutral finish. Yes, of course we can find this in other sunscreen products, but it's not common to get a neutral finish, especially in a Korean sun care product, because in South Korea that slightly dewy kind of finish to skin care is definitely popular, so it's hard to find a sun product that doesn't contribute to that. Just the finish and the texture alone are really impressive. I do have some greater criticism of this product that I want to share. I'm not going to yuck it for the denatured alcohol, because you really need that in order to create this type of formula. The essential oils, I'm not here to yuck anyone's yum, if you like fragrance, use fragrance. I don't think it's harmful to the skin at all, but if you're sensitive to it..."

"Beautiful sunscreen."

"I have already raved about the Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics so many times but I'm going to quickly run through it in case for those of you who are new to Beauty of Joseon. This is possibly the most raved about sunscreen online at the moment and it is my favorite sunscreen that I've tried so far. It is a Korean sunscreen that's not approved in other countries as far as I know. It is pretty lightweight but on the more moisturizing side which I have personally really appreciated. My skin is sort of oily combination but it has been drying out a bit because I've been using a lot more retinoids which are a bit drying and I've also had some hormonal changes thanks to dealing with endometriosis. The texture is really beautifully smooth and buttery. It's made by one of Korean's top sunscreen manufacturers. There is a tiny bit of white cast when I first apply it but it goes away once I leave it for about 10 minutes. [...] The downside of the sunscreen is that because it is so popular there's been quite a few fakes floating around like on Amazon so if you are planning to buy this I highly recommend buying it from an official retailer like Stylo Korean."
