Thank you so much for talking about how noticeable a sunscreen is on your face! For me the #1 reason I skip sunscreen some days is I just don't feel like feeling my sunscreen that day 😂 sometimes I can handle feeling product on my face but some days I really am just like "I'd rather hide in the basement and not see the sun than put that goop on my face 😭" and I don't think I've seen other skintubers really acknowledge that before. New to your channel but liking it so far, LabMuffin beauty science recommended you to us ☺️
I just wanted to comment how SO very thankful I am for this video!! I am always searching for a few very specific things with sunscreen- 1. All or mostly all new generation filters 2. No obvious fragrance included (like essential oils, limonene, “fragrance” etc.) 3. No alcohol. It is SO hard to find sunscreen that fits all of those parameters, and if you don’t have a list or starting point it is incredibly daunting because even if you cut out all of the other continents, there are SO many Asian sunscreens alone to sift through! Anyway, your fantastic video provided me not one but three to try! (maybe four? I have to go back and watch the segment of the 4th one because I had something distracting me during that bit lol). But I love that you’ve given me 3 that fit my preferences perfectly, and in three different finishes! Neutral/matte, moisturizing and dewy, and “feels like you’re wearing nothing”. I seriously feel as though you made this video just for me 😂 I’m so glad I caught it! Thanks again love 🙏 Edit- ooh bonus question: do you know of any SPRAY sunscreens that also fit my three requirements above? That has been an even tougher struggle for me! I’d love to find one to do touch ups on top of makeup throughout the day.
I have sensitive, dry, acne prone skin. Just tried skin1004 yesterday and really loved it, its cruelty free , moisturized me all day, didn't break out, and no whitecast and hardly any dew. I did try Scenic and Beauty of Joseon (cruelty free), but prefer to buy Skin1004 again over the other two because its cruelty free, feels good and less dew. 😊
I used to love the Isnt Tree but just as you said, that “dewy” look of it wasn’t for me. Since then, I switched to Skin1004 Hyaluronic Cica Sun Serum and absolutely loved it. My new holy grail sunscreen xD
The Skin1004 is the best sunscreen I’ve ever tried! Most of the ones you mentioned which are super popular are too dewy for me but Skin1004 created perfection and I’m not irritated to wear it daily 😊
The fact that you ranked them! (because I'm always thinking "ok but which one out of those is your favourite, or top 3??") So THANK YOU for the ranking!! I'm surprised the Purito Soft Touch didn't make it on the list. I've been wanting to try the Skin1004! *adds to cart* 🥰 xx
The Skin1004 sunscreen is my favourite sunscreen! And I’ve tried a fair few. The Isntree one stung my eyes a LOT. I liked the BOJ one but it worked better for me in the winter because it’s moisturising. I have my eyes on the Goodal and Scinic ones now.
I really loved this video Kelly! I have, or rather my skin has issues with niacinamide, so I really appreciate the fact that you added the Goodal SPF to this list! I'd love it if you could do a video with sunscreens that are ALL niacinamide free.
YAY A RANK!!🌈💕🦋✨ I’m team BOJ for combo acne prone skin!!! Nobody asked, but… Krave matcha cleanser + Peach Slices Snail Deep moisture cream + BOJ spf + Loreal tinted hyaluronic serum = you will not be sorry 🤩 This video got me thinking how BOJ spf isn’t just the product itself but how it plays so well with others especially that Loreal skin tint! And thanks to videos like this, I have come so far in discovering the most superstar knock it out of the park textures, all acne friendly and affordable, that all fit seamlessly together into a routine. I am so thankful 💛
I recently discovered Goodal H. Cordata Calming Sun Cream and you are right about it being semi-matte. On the left side of my face, I applied Benton Air Fit Sun Cream and Goodal on the right side, Goodal side was slightly matte. I love both though.
The Skin1004 sunscreen - it is amaaaazing! I have oily skin and super sensitive eyes. It is as you said - invisible. I forget as well that I applied it. It immediately sinks in, because it is so light. No greasiness or heaviness. And it is the FIRST sunscreen I have used that does not sting my eyes. I ruined my eyes years ago, when contact lenses had low % of water and they lasted for a whole year. But they were harmful for the eyes. I think this is why my eyes are to this day so sensitive to bright light, sunscreens etc. So happy I found this sunscreen!
Even "daily" sunscreens must be at least water-resistant to be able to wear them in the summer. Otherwise, they will melt off in the heat/humidity just by being outside in the heat. Even if you don't exercise - you can just stand still outside, and the heat will make it drip off. I don't get how people can wear any of these in the SUMMER. Any other season, yes, but in the summer I find that they tend to melt off. I'm still looking for a sunscreen that is "grippy" enough for the summer. So weird how all sunscreens tend to be advertised as moisturizing. Not a lot of people need moisture in 90% humidity.
These are great picks overall! I can't do Isntree at all (far too much shine and it moves around and gives me eye burn). BoJ is middle of the pack, if a bit too much in the summer. But the rest are gold. My top 5 would also include iUNIK (all year) and Klairs (for the winter). Round Lab is also decent (BoJ level), but it's so much more expensive than the rest. If you want value, Scenic is really hard to beat (you can get it for less than $8 most of the time!). UPDATE: I finally tried the Goodal sunscreen and there will not be a need for me to buy a different sunscreen ever again. The PINNACLE.
I’m a devotee of BOJ sunscreen. It’s so light on the screen and easily to reapply. I have recently tried the Isntree water sunscreen, I find this is slightly thicker than the BOJ. And another con is that it smells like sunscreen. Whereas the BOJ doesn’t have much of a scent at all.
SKIN1004 is my absolute favorite! It's so lightweight, a little moisturizing, and feels like almost nothing on the skin. I have a few others but it helps me stay consistent and I actually look forward to putting it on. Thank you for this video!
I've been using the Skin1004 sun serum recently and I love it. It's cruelty free, vegan, doesn't have anything I'm allergic to (nut oils), and it doesn't break me out/cause hives. I'm also very particular about sunscreen/lotion texture. I don't ever really moisturize my body because I hate the texture of normal lotions. I tried the isntree and beauty of joseon sunscreens, but I didn't enjoy the texture... I can't explain it! But, I do love the Skin1004 sun serum and its texture. It's great under makeup! My go to was the canmake sunscreen, but it's not vegan, so I'm glad to find a good vegan sunscreen!
Haven't tried the goodal or scenic so I'm excited to try them! In my collection I also have iunik, benton, and cosrx. I have combo skin. Cosrx is a bit too dewy for me, but makeup calms that down. I'm loving the iunik and benton though. Also want to try the round lab sun cushion.
With so many great Korean sunscreens, it must have been tough to rank just 5. My favourites also include Scinic, BoJ and the SKIN1004 one. I also like the Bellflower Blueberry sunscreen, Etude House Soon Jung mineral sun cream and the Dear Klairs All day airy essence. I'll put the goodal one on my list, as I liked quite a few Goodal products.
I love the BOJ sunscreen for every day, but with summer beach days coming what are your favorite outdoor sunscreens? Would love to see a video about that.
Ive been dying to try to Isntree. I was unsure about the Skin1004 but now that it’s getting warmer im really liking it. BOJ is def a go to for me and i want to try all the others you’ve mentioned. Thanks Kelly ❤
Tinosorb M, an ingredient of boj and skin1004 sunscreens mentioned, is both a physical and a chemical sunscreen ingredient. Hence, the slight white cast (According to incidecoder)
Thank you so much for this video! I was wondering if you would consider doing some videos on water resistant sunscreens and also body sunscreens. Thank you very much!
Thank you for your lost! I have a few of these already and I couldn’t agree more! I’ve struggled for years with mechanical filters and certain chemical filters that make my eyes water for hours after application :) Leave it to Korean brands to fix a big problem 🙏🏻
I love all of these. I recently tried one Japanese one from Anessa (Shiseido) in a pink bottle and it has a very cool technology where it is incredibly sweat resistant fragrance free and the technology somehow when sweating it gets 20% stronger or something like that I know I’m not using the correct wording here but it was very comfortable I wore on a run with my dog and was amazed I didn’t swear it off my eyes didn’t get irritated it was perfection! I’m not near it but when I get home if I remember I’ll put the name down. It’s sooo good!
What an outstanding video!! You cover the ingredients, texture, etc. I really rely on your information, descriptions and opinion. Thank you so much for being so knowledgeable and helpful.
really really love the texture of the Isntree, but it is too shiny and makes my skin a little bit tight few hours after which is surprising despite the shiny finish.
I actually use different sunscreens on different parts of my face. I use Australian Gold on my forehead and nose because it’s a bit mattifying and pore blurring. I use Colorescience Sunforgettable on the rest of my face. The AG feels too thick on the parts of my face that move around a lot and the CS makes the tip of my nose break out. The CS would be too dewy for my forehead, but I need all the hydration/moisture I can get on the sides of my face. Thankfully, they match, because I don’t wear foundation. With sensitive skin, I’ve been reticent to try anything beyond physical filters, but I’m waiting for my first YesStyle order, getting ready to dip my toe into the realm of new age chemical filters.
Tried Isntree, Beauty of Joseon and Scinic, by far my fave is the Beauty of Joseon, surprised how it's moisturizing enough by itself for my dry skin! Now tho, my go-to sunscreen is from Benton Air Fit UV Defense sunscreen. But it does contain EO, I believe it has Rosemarry Oil. The green tint is what hooked me cause it evens out the redness on my cheek! And now I'm waiting my Skin1004 sunscreen to arrive! 😂
I just open a tube of Isntree Sun gel today. Its texture is much lighter than I expect. I have tried (1) Beauty of Joseon - I think its texture is quite thick for me (2) Roundlab - not very watery but I like its texture (3) SKIN 1004 - not very watery, still thicker than Isntree. So, based on my feeling, Beauty o f Joseon = the thickest texture Isntree = the thinnest texture I don't feel the result from extra ingredients from SKIN 1004, Round lab.
I’ve tried 4 of these 5 and 3 of them would give my skin a slight stinging sensation, especially when my barrier is compromised. Tried 2 Scinic samples, eyelid was burned both times. BOJ definitely stung here and there. I stuck with the Skin1004 for the gorgeous finish, but it indeed does sting occasionally tho luckily it does go away. There’s something about the formula they share (I doubt it’s niacinamide bc I’m fine w niacinamide stuff in my routine) and they’re def not the mildest sunscreens out there. Texture and application are always really good tho!!
Hey Kelly, Loved this video! Scinic sunscreen is my favorite! I’ve just come back from Seoul and bought a toooon of skincare including Goodal sunscreen and I can’t wait to try it! Unfortunately my sensitive skin hates HA so I can’t try sunscreens including that. Why don’t you make a video about waterproof or sweat resistant favorite sunscreens for summer? We all need your recommendations ❤
My absolute favorite is Beauty of Joseon but out of all those that you mentioned, the only one I didn't try is 1004. I buy Beauty of Joseon as a 2 pack on sale for $20. It's hard to beat $10 sunscreen that works great especially since we use so much
I would definitely give SKIN1004 Centella Madagascar sunscreen a try. Everyone was raving about BOJ so I got it but then I also got the SKIN1004 and I rarely pick up the BOJ anymore unless I'm not caring about the feel or looks that day and just try to finish using it. (dry, sensitive skin, lives somewhere hot)
I love the BoJ and have repurchased too . I'm currently loving Japanese Sunscreens - Skin Aqua Gold Top and Biore Aqua Watery Sun Gel . Also loving MadAboutSkin spf50 5* very High UVA protection as I love Altruist Sunscreens too . Great Content , Thanks 👏😊🇬🇧🇪🇺
for me the boj sunscreen was a miss. it *did* feel heavy for my skin. which is weird because I'm an ex-accutanee so I'm a dry skin girl for sure. it also irritated my skin a lot. stung upon application and made other products sting as well. no clue why! love your vids, thanks for promoting so many options. nothing fits everyone :))
Haven’t tried Goodal yet, though I’m curious to. Scinic I’m hesitant about because of the thickness reviewers describe. (I have however tried Scinic’s mineral foundation-skip spf; it’s a great finish but in usual mineral spf style, it sucks for reapplication.) BOJ is a classic and longstanding favorite, the sunscreen I wear when I want comfort and absolutely zero skincare shenanigans. The Skin1004 is excellent and keeps alternating with BOJ for a position in my heart. The Isntree one I’ve fallen out of love with over time - it feels great on my skin but it’s just sooo shiny and the eye sting is too much for me.
Hi Kelly.. can u recommend heavy duty water resistant sunscreens for hot nd humid summers wch r also elegant enuf to wear daily?? Dese korean ones r vry elegant but will melt off wid my sweat in dis humid weather!!
Hey Kelly I loved your video and appreciate the hardwork you put into the video I just wanted to know that I have much oily skin and used the BOJ sunscreen but it is not sweat or water resistant so can you recommend me a k-beauty or any other sunscreen which doesn't makes me feel greasy and gives matte finish and which could also be affordable can you recommend me? Btw lots of love 💕
I’m wearing dear Klair’s. I like it a lot but I have several others that I bought to try. I have also tried the reformulated Purito and I like that as well.
This is so helpful--thank you! I've been wanting to try a product with next-gen filters because the US chemical filters irritate my skin. I'm going to try one of these!
Just sunsreens i was looking for!! Im gonna try beauty of joseon and skin1004, although i have combo skin, always look for your videos before i try something new, thanks❤
Amazing and in depth sunscreen reviews as always! Will definitely need to try the Scinic one. Have you tried the Hyggee vegan sun cream before? I couldn't find it on your channel. I'm wondering your thoughts on how lightweight it feels on the skin compared to the others in this video.
I love the Skin1004 sunscreen too, and I have been using it for a few months after wining 2 bottles from stylevana and it’s great, definitely a favorite. But I just bought the Scinic sunscreen after seeing you recommend it, and it was only $7.50 on stylevana so I bought 2, and I Love It! It absorbs quickly, it’s slightly moisturizing which is great on my dryish skin and I think its fantastic! Great recommendation for sure. I do like the BoJ sunscreen as well, but I haven’t tried the Goodal or Isntree sunscreens yet, but after this video the Goodal sounds great so that might be my next try! Thanks for another great video Kelly!
I'm currently using the kiss me mommy water resistant sunscreen and kiss me mommy sunscreen that comes in a bear bottle. Those are 2 of my favorite sunscreens
Can you recommend some sweatproof and waterproof sunscreens whose shipping is available to India and which are affordable with a matte finish for a sports person ?
As someone who deals with living in super hot & humid most of the year, SE Texas, I really need something that is super light weight sunscreen particularly in the summer. Pretty much everything mentioned I only use Fall & Spring. I have 2 summer faves I’ve found post 2020. Lagom Cellus Sungel (drawback 1.35 oz/40 ml tube) or the Klavuu UV Protection Fresh Sun Gel. Both are hydrating and refreshing feeling and don’t feel like anything on my skin. While I’m mostly a normal skin person, summer means I don’t want to feel that layer of sunscreen on my face. I use moisturizers most would view as oily skin friendly because even w normal skin I don’t want anything heavy or super moisturizing, I want light, airy & refreshing & these 2 do that. I do like the Hyggee Vegan Sun Cream as a moisturizing winter sun screen when I tend to be dryer. I do really like the Skin1004 Centella for the day after Trentinoin.
Hey Kelly, I’m wondering if you have any recommendations on Korean BODY sunscreens? I drive alot and am always looking for a cosmetically elegant one for the rest of the body. I did find one from illyoon that’s in a 5 Oz pump tub thing I might try but I disklike fragrance and em that one has a scent
It's really hard to find spf much bigger than 80ml in k-beauty unfortunately! Swanicoco has an spf that's 150ml (light fragrance). Jbeauty has a nice offering with the nivea sun protect water gel. It had a pump and refills!
I was really glad to find out about the Goodal sunscreen through this video and am really enjoying it so far! I'm a little concerned because it seems to now be out of stock on a number of sites -- I hope they aren't discontinuing it. :(
Sadly most korean options are not available where I live or are too expensive for me (I won't pay more than 15€ for a 40ml sunscreen). Thankfully great european options are readily available.
yea u guys in Europe are very lucky to have Evy which would be my go to for summer sunscreen. such amazing technology verified by independent 3rd party testing. I unfortunately can't get it in the US as most retailers won't ship aerosols. You guys also have La Roche posay formulas with 2nd gen filters we don't get as well as a garnier one I saw for 10 pounds. so you def don't have to go to asian sunscreens.
I use skin 1004 while on accutane it's hydrating moisturizing but it does irritate my sensitive cheeks where i have scars and pigmentation. Idk why but it does, i haven't seen any review where someone mentioned this issue.
I recently finished up the BOJ sunscreen and was excited to use the Skin1004 one. I was disappointed. There was a slight stinging feeling upon application and I did not like how it felt on my skin. 😢 I really like the isntree sunscreen. I think I’ll try the Goodall one this time! P.S. when will you be reviewing the new BOJ ginseng sunscreen?? ☀️🤔
Hey im very confused. The goodal sunscreen that you have linked in the description is called heartleaf sunscreen and the one u mention in the video is H.cordata. It isnt the same is it? Even on reddit people seem to be interchanging the names and reviews.
It was rebranded within the last year to be called heartleaf instead of houttuynia Cordata, which is way easier to pronounce and remember! Houttuynia cordata is the scientific name for heartleaf, the ingredients did not change with the name!
I have such a different experience with the isntree ha spf. I have dry skin and this one makes me look sooo greasy like I have a thin clear mask on. I have to blowdry my face with this one and lots of powder which annoys me. I’m not sure why I seem to be the only one
I like the texture of the skin1004 but for some reason it kind of sting on some parts of my face for a short while everytime I put it on. Slightly stinging but I still use it and almost done with it. Not sure why because I don't hear people experiencing this but I really like the texture
hello! question here, i've been using the cosrx snail cream & im looking for a sunscreen & wanna try the boj one but a chemist said that snail mucin makes you sensitive to ferments? i really wanna try it and their ginseng essence (that has ginseng ferment filtrate) but is it safe to😭
I've never heard that snail makes your skin sensitive to ferments, sounds more anecdotal than fact based. The only way you'll know if your skin is sensitive to an ingredient is to try it out, the ferment in the sunscreen is very low, tbh.

I have a few of these already and I couldn’t agree more!
I’ve struggled for years with mechanical filters and certain chemical filters that make my eyes water for hours after application :)
Leave it to Korean brands to fix a big problem 🙏🏻
I love all of these. I recently tried one Japanese one from Anessa (Shiseido) in a pink bottle and it has a very cool technology where it is incredibly sweat resistant fragrance free and the technology somehow when sweating it gets 20% stronger or something like that I know I’m not using the correct wording here but it was very comfortable I wore on a run with my dog and was amazed I didn’t swear it off my eyes didn’t get irritated it was perfection! I’m not near it but when I get home if I remember I’ll put the name down. It’s sooo good!
Anessa is some next level spf! 👍
I will look for this. I need some thins sweat resistant.
do you mind sharing where you got it from or a link? I saw a few of this on yes style but never a pink bottle and never fragrance free
What an outstanding video!! You cover the ingredients, texture, etc. I really rely on your information, descriptions and opinion. Thank you so much for being so knowledgeable and helpful.

I just open a tube of Isntree Sun gel today. Its texture is much lighter than I expect. I have tried (1) Beauty of Joseon - I think its texture is quite thick for me (2) Roundlab - not very watery but I like its texture (3) SKIN 1004 - not very watery, still thicker than Isntree.
So, based on my feeling, Beauty o f Joseon = the thickest texture
Isntree = the thinnest texture
I don't feel the result from extra ingredients from SKIN 1004, Round lab.
I was waiting for this video. Thanks! Please do a video on sweat proof sunscreen .
I’ve tried 4 of these 5 and 3 of them would give my skin a slight stinging sensation, especially when my barrier is compromised. Tried 2 Scinic samples, eyelid was burned both times. BOJ definitely stung here and there. I stuck with the Skin1004 for the gorgeous finish, but it indeed does sting occasionally tho luckily it does go away. There’s something about the formula they share (I doubt it’s niacinamide bc I’m fine w niacinamide stuff in my routine) and they’re def not the mildest sunscreens out there. Texture and application are always really good tho!!
My love u have quality content 😊
Hey Kelly, Loved this video! Scinic sunscreen is my favorite! I’ve just come back from Seoul and bought a toooon of skincare including Goodal sunscreen and I can’t wait to try it! Unfortunately my sensitive skin hates HA so I can’t try sunscreens including that. Why don’t you make a video about waterproof or sweat resistant favorite sunscreens for summer? We all need your recommendations ❤
Hey what are your opinions about goodal’s sunscreen if you’ve tried it??
@@Dilara-ny4vq hi! I haven’t tried it yet because I’ve other sunscreens already open and I want to finish them first ☺️
My absolute favorite is Beauty of Joseon but out of all those that you mentioned, the only one I didn't try is 1004. I buy Beauty of Joseon as a 2 pack on sale for $20. It's hard to beat $10 sunscreen that works great especially since we use so much
I would definitely give SKIN1004 Centella Madagascar sunscreen a try. Everyone was raving about BOJ so I got it but then I also got the SKIN1004 and I rarely pick up the BOJ anymore unless I'm not caring about the feel or looks that day and just try to finish using it. (dry, sensitive skin, lives somewhere hot)
I love the BoJ and have repurchased too . I'm currently loving Japanese Sunscreens - Skin Aqua Gold Top and Biore Aqua Watery Sun Gel . Also loving MadAboutSkin spf50 5* very High UVA protection as I love Altruist Sunscreens too . Great Content , Thanks 👏😊🇬🇧🇪🇺
Does MAS leave you dewy?
for me the boj sunscreen was a miss. it *did* feel heavy for my skin. which is weird because I'm an ex-accutanee so I'm a dry skin girl for sure. it also irritated my skin a lot. stung upon application and made other products sting as well. no clue why! love your vids, thanks for promoting so many options. nothing fits everyone :))
Which ones do you prefer?
Haven’t tried Goodal yet, though I’m curious to. Scinic I’m hesitant about because of the thickness reviewers describe. (I have however tried Scinic’s mineral foundation-skip spf; it’s a great finish but in usual mineral spf style, it sucks for reapplication.) BOJ is a classic and longstanding favorite, the sunscreen I wear when I want comfort and absolutely zero skincare shenanigans. The Skin1004 is excellent and keeps alternating with BOJ for a position in my heart. The Isntree one I’ve fallen out of love with over time - it feels great on my skin but it’s just sooo shiny and the eye sting is too much for me.
I have Skin1004, BOJ and Instree and love them all! Great video!
Currently wearing Mad About Skin Protect and Hydrate. Anxiously waiting for the new Purito and Skin 1004 Hyalu water sunscreen.❤🎉
Korean & Japanese Sunscreens are innovative , new generation filters with very high UVA protection and really affordable . 👏😊🇬🇧🇪🇺
Can’t wait for the new Isntree sunscreens!
Hi Kelly. I'm a new subscriber to your TH-cam channel. I'm living in France. I use Korean skin care, too. Love your content 😊. See you soon.
Hi Kelly.. can u recommend heavy duty water resistant sunscreens for hot nd humid summers wch r also elegant enuf to wear daily?? Dese korean ones r vry elegant but will melt off wid my sweat in dis humid weather!!
Hey Kelly I loved your video and appreciate the hardwork you put into the video I just wanted to know that I have much oily skin and used the BOJ sunscreen but it is not sweat or water resistant so can you recommend me a k-beauty or any other sunscreen which doesn't makes me feel greasy and gives matte finish and which could also be affordable can you recommend me? Btw lots of love 💕
I’m wearing dear Klair’s. I like it a lot but I have several others that I bought to try. I have also tried the reformulated Purito and I like that as well.
I need to try the new Klairs SPF!
This is so helpful--thank you! I've been wanting to try a product with next-gen filters because the US chemical filters irritate my skin. I'm going to try one of these!
Such a good roundup and overview of pros/cons/differences. Thank you! 🙇🏻♀️
You always nail it! Scinic is my current fav and a re-buy! About to try their compact for “top up”.
Love the Skin1004. OMG status!❤😊
Agree!! 💖
Just sunsreens i was looking for!! Im gonna try beauty of joseon and skin1004, although i have combo skin, always look for your videos before i try something new, thanks❤
Amazing and in depth sunscreen reviews as always! Will definitely need to try the Scinic one.
Have you tried the Hyggee vegan sun cream before? I couldn't find it on your channel. I'm wondering your thoughts on how lightweight it feels on the skin compared to the others in this video.
Right now my favorite is the Round lab Birch tree juice moisturizing sunscreen
Hi Kelly I love various K tone up sun screen too!
You really sold me on the Goodal and Skin 1004...I can't wait for my next Style vana haul lol..Already added these in my cart lol
Love yours videos ,kelly 🎉 ❤ xx
Great selecion Kelly! Thank you 😊
Goodal and Scinic, sound interesting. Love your content💟
I love the Skin1004 sunscreen too, and I have been using it for a few months after wining 2 bottles from stylevana and it’s great, definitely a favorite. But I just bought the Scinic sunscreen after seeing you recommend it, and it was only $7.50 on stylevana so I bought 2, and I Love It! It absorbs quickly, it’s slightly moisturizing which is great on my dryish skin and I think its fantastic! Great recommendation for sure. I do like the BoJ sunscreen as well, but I haven’t tried the Goodal or Isntree sunscreens yet, but after this video the Goodal sounds great so that might be my next try! Thanks for another great video Kelly!
Haven't tried it, but I've seen that the RoundLab sunscreen is a fave with Koreans and Korean influencers!
I'm currently using the kiss me mommy water resistant sunscreen and kiss me mommy sunscreen that comes in a bear bottle. Those are 2 of my favorite sunscreens
That isehan spf is so good! 👍
On my way to try beauty of josean sunscreen 🤞 . Great picks kelly
Used Mermaid Skin all winter but will probably go back to the Isntree for summer
Watching this while putting on my skin1004 sunscreen ❤ just the best!
I really need a sports/active sunscreen list.
I look to European sunscreens for active SPF, avene very high protection worked for me during a hot and sweaty Greek summer!
Thank you so much!!❤❤ I can't wait to try the scinic because it's so affordable! I'm praying my skin loves it 😭🙏🏼
Can you recommend some sweatproof and waterproof sunscreens whose shipping is available to India and which are affordable with a matte finish for a sports person ?
As someone who deals with living in super hot & humid most of the year, SE Texas, I really need something that is super light weight sunscreen particularly in the summer. Pretty much everything mentioned I only use Fall & Spring.
I have 2 summer faves I’ve found post 2020. Lagom Cellus Sungel (drawback 1.35 oz/40 ml tube) or the Klavuu UV Protection Fresh Sun Gel. Both are hydrating and refreshing feeling and don’t feel like anything on my skin. While I’m mostly a normal skin person, summer means I don’t want to feel that layer of sunscreen on my face. I use moisturizers most would view as oily skin friendly because even w normal skin I don’t want anything heavy or super moisturizing, I want light, airy & refreshing & these 2 do that.
I do like the Hyggee Vegan Sun Cream as a moisturizing winter sun screen when I tend to be dryer.
I do really like the Skin1004 Centella for the day after Trentinoin.
I love the Etude House Director's sunscreen
Hey Kelly, do you have any big sunscreen recommendations?
Hey Kelly, I’m wondering if you have any recommendations on Korean BODY sunscreens? I drive alot and am always looking for a cosmetically elegant one for the rest of the body. I did find one from illyoon that’s in a 5 Oz pump tub thing I might try but I disklike fragrance and em that one has a scent
It's really hard to find spf much bigger than 80ml in k-beauty unfortunately! Swanicoco has an spf that's 150ml (light fragrance). Jbeauty has a nice offering with the nivea sun protect water gel. It had a pump and refills!
How about the Make Prem?
if you are in the US banana boat light as air is exceptional very light weight fast absorbing, water resistant and cheap as chips!
Love your recommendations ❤
Great Video Kelly
Thank you!💖
I use the BoJ one as eye contour, because I don't tolerate any sunscreens around my eyes (I'm not even talking eyelids)
I was really glad to find out about the Goodal sunscreen through this video and am really enjoying it so far! I'm a little concerned because it seems to now be out of stock on a number of sites -- I hope they aren't discontinuing it. :(
Not sure if you are still looking, Style Korean has it and Blooming Koco has it if you're in the States!
Thank you for the ranking! What about Goodal vitamin C have you ever tried?
Kelly, I really can't find any info on K beauty tinted sunscreens:( Do you have any suggestions or the video on it?:)
I love the skin1004 sunscreen so so much
Very few mineral sunscreens are up to par with the chemical ones, still, sometimes my skin craves mineral every once in a while
Sadly most korean options are not available where I live or are too expensive for me (I won't pay more than 15€ for a 40ml sunscreen). Thankfully great european options are readily available.
yea u guys in Europe are very lucky to have Evy which would be my go to for summer sunscreen. such amazing technology verified by independent 3rd party testing. I unfortunately can't get it in the US as most retailers won't ship aerosols. You guys also have La Roche posay formulas with 2nd gen filters we don't get as well as a garnier one I saw for 10 pounds. so you def don't have to go to asian sunscreens.
I use skin 1004 while on accutane it's hydrating moisturizing but it does irritate my sensitive cheeks where i have scars and pigmentation. Idk why but it does, i haven't seen any review where someone mentioned this issue.
YesStyle has the Scinic on sale! It’s about $7 so I grabbed 2
great video. So curious with the goodal. Have you tried any abib sunscreen?
I recently finished up the BOJ sunscreen and was excited to use the Skin1004 one. I was disappointed. There was a slight stinging feeling upon application and I did not like how it felt on my skin. 😢 I really like the isntree sunscreen. I think I’ll try the Goodall one this time! P.S. when will you be reviewing the new BOJ ginseng sunscreen?? ☀️🤔
So informative
Hey Kelly, great review! Do you also have your favourite mineral sunscreens or you don't like them for some reason? (potentially white cast... :)
Check the sunscreen playlist on my channel, I've done some individual reviews on mineral SPF's. I like the ones from Isntree and Avene!
I have tried both chemical and physical sunscreens but my skin react to both I don't know what to do what to use anymore😢😢😢......
Would love to know any tinted sunscreen!
I love BOJ and skin 1004. I would like to try Scinic next. Any suggestions for lip spf? I find them so drying and can’t find one I like. Thanks Kelly!
Check out MD Solar Sciences, they have a nice SPF lip product, or Rhoto Melty cream Lip on Stylevana or Yesstyle, both are nice balms not drying!
@@KellyDriscoll Thanks! You are the best 💙
Hey im very confused. The goodal sunscreen that you have linked in the description is called heartleaf sunscreen and the one u mention in the video is H.cordata. It isnt the same is it? Even on reddit people seem to be interchanging the names and reviews.
It was rebranded within the last year to be called heartleaf instead of houttuynia Cordata, which is way easier to pronounce and remember! Houttuynia cordata is the scientific name for heartleaf, the ingredients did not change with the name!
I have such a different experience with the isntree ha spf. I have dry skin and this one makes me look sooo greasy like I have a thin clear mask on. I have to blowdry my face with this one and lots of powder which annoys me. I’m not sure why I seem to be the only one
You're not the only one, a lot of people find it too shiny!
I like the texture of the skin1004 but for some reason it kind of sting on some parts of my face for a short while everytime I put it on. Slightly stinging but I still use it and almost done with it. Not sure why because I don't hear people experiencing this but I really like the texture
hello! question here, i've been using the cosrx snail cream & im looking for a sunscreen & wanna try the boj one but a chemist said that snail mucin makes you sensitive to ferments? i really wanna try it and their ginseng essence (that has ginseng ferment filtrate) but is it safe to😭
I've never heard that snail makes your skin sensitive to ferments, sounds more anecdotal than fact based. The only way you'll know if your skin is sensitive to an ingredient is to try it out, the ferment in the sunscreen is very low, tbh.
skin1004 is just top tier.
Is goodal sunscreen good for combination and sensitive skin?
Yes imo it is!
First
Glad you enjoyed it!💗
