/ Kevin Liang At this point, you're probably well aware of the importance of wearing SPF every day—yep, even in the winter. But just to make sure we're on the same page, it's a must for keeping your skin healthy and preventing sun damage, which can lead to fine lines, discoloration, dark spots, and even skin cancer . A great sunscreen is one that someone wants to apply generously every single day and reapply when needed, confirms Claudia Christin, MBBS, Ph.D., a skincare content creator and medical advisor at K-beauty retailer Picky. As you may already know, Korean skincare is taking the Western cosmetics world by storm. While it dominates many categories, K-beauty really shines when it comes to sunscreen. Whether you haven't found the right one yet or are a sunscreen stan and want to expand your horizons, we're confident that there's a K-beauty option that'll strike your fancy. From multitasking products with soothing and hydrating ingredients to gels, sticks, and creams, there's something for everyone. To compile this list, we spent hours researching the best Korean sunscreens on the market, evaluating their active ingredients, sunscreen type, and SPF rating. We also scoured reviews from customers and consulted experts to get their recommendations. After considering dozens of formulas, we landed on these top-rated picks.

The creamy, moisturizing-yet-lightweight texture absorbs quickly into your skin. Christin is a fan of Cosrx's sunscreens, and we can see why. The hydrating formula provides optimal broad spectrum protection and can be used on its own or under makeup. And thanks to an ample dose of aloe vera, it soothes irritation and protects the skin from environmental damage. Who It’s For This is a great formula for virtually anyone, but the fact that it doesn’t leave a white cast makes it a winner for deeper skin tones. We love the consistency, hydration, and the high SPF protection it offers. Best Budget Missha Soft Finish Sun Milk Amazon View On Yesstyle.com $13 View On Oo35mm.com What We Like Lightweight Sweat-resistant Great for sensitive skin What We Don't Like Can leave a white cast on darker skin tones Type: Chemical and mineral hybrid | Key Ingredients: Titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, octinoxate | SPF: 50 | Size: 2.4 ounces | Water-Resistant: Yes | Cruelty-Free: No Korean sunscreens aren't usually exorbitantly expensive, but Missha's Soft Finish Sun Milk is $10 to $20 cheaper than most other options we reviewed. As the name suggests, this SPF 50 formula has a milky texture and a lightweight finish, making it perfect for those who live in hot, humid environments where perspiration makes thicker formulas feel unpleasant. Oily skin types will jive with this formula as well, as it won't increase shininess throughout the day. Another benefit: It's water and sweat-resistant. Our one criticism is that it can leave a white cast on deeper skin tones. Who It’s For Those in search of an effective Korean sunscreen that’s on the cheaper end of the price spectrum will love this product. It’s also got a milky consistency which will appeal to anyone who prefers lightweight sunscreen formulas. Best Chemical Formula Isntree Watery Sun Gel View On Stylevana.com View On Yesstyle.com $19 View On Oliveyoung.com What We Like Formulated with eight types of hyaluronic acid No white cast on all skin tones Absorbs quickly What We Don't Like May be too shiny for oily skin types Type: Chemical | Key Ingredients: Ethylhexyl salicylate, homosalate, hyaluronic acid | SPF: 50 | Size: 1.69 ounces | Water-Resistant: No | Cruelty-Free: Yes In case you’re not familiar, chemical sunscreens contain UV filters that safely absorb the sun’s rays and turn them into heat. Unlike mineral sunscreens, which sit on top of the skin and deflect UV rays, chemical sunscreens tend to be more transparent and lightweight. Korean beauty expert and YouTube personality Kelly Driscoll recommends this formula from Isntree for those who prefer chemical formulas. This has a texture that's easy to spread and dries down quickly so you can apply your makeup over it easily in the morning, and it doesn't leave any white cast on the skin, she says. That said, this sunscreen can leave a shiny finish—something to keep in mind if you prefer a matte base. It's also a personal favorite of 's editor-in-chief and GM Hallie Gould, who loves the sunscreen's soothing and moisturizing properties. It feels lightweight and offers a beautiful glowy finish, she says. I also love that it incorporates all my favorite skincare ingredients—centella asiatica, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid—for a formula that feels good on my face while it protects from the sun. Who It’s For If you prefer the feel and look of a chemical sunscreen (aka lightweight and cast-free), this expert-approved formula is a top option. Best for Oily Skin Suntique I'M PURE Perfect Cica Suncream StyleKorean View On Laboratory-k.com View On Caretobeauty.com What We Like Lightweight Absorbs quickly Matte finish What We Don't Like Has an unpleasant scent Type: Mineral | Key Ingredients: Titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, centella asiatica | SPF: 50 | Size: 1.69 ounces | Water-Resistant: No | Cruelty-Free: No Folks with oily skin may get frustrated with how many shine-inducing sunscreens there are on the market today. But Suntique's I'm Pure is different— it’s non-sticky, fast-absorbing, and delivers a matte finish. It also contains cica (better known as centella asiatica), a natural ingredient with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. The only downside is it does have a strong, unpleasant scent when first applying—but it does fade once the product has absorbed. Who It’s For If your skin tends to be oily and you're always looking for mattifying products, this fast-absorbing formula will help keep that unwanted sheen under control.
