The Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun is an organic sunscreen designed for individuals seeking effective, broad-spectrum UV protection with added skincare benefits, particularly those with sensitive skin. Its key win is providing SPF50+ PA++++ protection with a non-sticky, moisturizing finish thanks to rice extract and probiotics. A minor caveat is that while generally beneficial for sensitive skin, the product contains various fermented extracts that some specific skin types might need to test for individual reactions.
