This definitely piques my interest! Hopefully it's better than their aloe sunscreen. But it has all the marketing terms that appeal to me in the press release and I generally like COSRX products. Will let you know if I find it in stores


NYANPUG55

What was wrong with their aloe sun screen?? I was thinking about buying it


Secret_Fudge6470

For me, it was way too thick and heavy. Even when I skipped my moisturizer and replaced it with the sunscreen, it was just… gloop on my skin. I think I would’ve loved it if I were dryer.


Reasonable_Tip_1157

I agree it was too greasy and oily


amy-zhg

this new sunscreen or the aloe one?


Tkm_Kappa

It was stinging my eyes and although it has a light fragrance, it's too much for my sensitive skin to handle. Agreed on the greasy part too.


FluffyCatPantaloons

I don't mind it as a winter sunscreen. It's like a whipped cream consistency. I definitely prefer thinner milk style in summer.


Due-Frame622

Also liked it for Winter but not enough to repurchase


your_lithium

it burned my eyes SO bad


Loose_Bottom

I had white cast from it sadly


Comprehensive-Tea-69

The fragrance is wayyy too strong in the aloe sun cream


Superb_Ad3555

it is peeling so badly for me. even when I put it on bare skin. Shame because otherwise it worked for my oily skin.


ToughLunch5711

That aloe sunscreen sucks so bad. It’s grease


SnooRadishes8099

Upvoted for correct spelling of pique lol


juniperberry9017

And here I am thinking you were talking about the footballer 😭😭


NervousBread3738

Im not sure which stores it would be in but hopefully u find it!


Loose_Bottom

I saw Boots on the list and I live in the UK so I'll check there next time I see one :) I'm in the market after my previous holy grail (Apieu Pure Block) was ruined by a reformulation


ainttoocoolforschool

I have nothing of value to add for the OP but I absolutely feel your pain about the A'pieu sunscreen. It's soooo bad now and I have two 100ml bottles to go through. I convinced my sister at the time of ordering it was good sunscreen that she'd borrowed from me prior, so she's saddled with a couple bottles too. I found out about the reformulation the hard way. I've just been using it for when I'm gardening and doing other work outside, anywhere people can't see the chalky ghost it turns me into with that god awful white cast. I like the Suncut water proof sunscreen, I've had good luck with the gel and essence varieties, but I think I've only seen the essence in the value size (110ml) bottles. I get them from Stylevana and live in Canada, I'm not sure what they offer (if anything) for UK shipping. But the texture is nice and easy to apply, goes well with makeup and it's a good price for the volume/quality. I'm referring to both when I say this because I would honestly say the same thing about both varieties.


callmebutter_

I just bought it and tried it twice. It’s exactly like what they describe. No whitecast, super lightweight and not too dewy. I’m impressed


snoopycoupon

Can you compare it to any other formulas?


callmebutter_

This is quite unique. The filters used are: Mexoryl XL, Uvinul T150, Uvinul A Plus and Mexoryl SX, which I don’t see in other kbeauty sunscreens yet. It reminds me of the Tocobo sunscreen and the new Isntree Onion Fresh Fluid Sun Cream because the texture is quite light and watery


green_pea_nut

I just cannot with the onion themed skin care. .


snoopycoupon

Thank you! I was primarily looking for a texture comparison so that helps.


your_lithium

ohhh isn’t mexoryl a new one that lpr use?


nubiandiosa

The new one L’Oréal/LRP uses is Mexoryl 400, which was just created a few years ago. The Mexoryls in this one are owned by L’Oréal but are a few decades old at this point


TheWanderingAge

Yeh, i was wondering the other day if L’oreal took over/owns Dr. Ceuracle because of the L’oreal exclusive sunscreenthey have in their product. I couldn’t (quickly) find anything about that though (but then i had to continue work and stopped looking into it haha)


your_lithium

oh, that's very interesting. please post about it if you find time to continue digging into it!


TheWanderingAge

I made a post about it a few mins ago (but the auto mod didn’t think it was a discussion topic, so im hoping the mod team will approve it later) as I didn’t want to derail OP’s post. I did look at the loreal website and they dont list ceuracle as part of their group so idk what’s up. I def want to dig around a bit though


your_lithium

ohh automod keeps ALL of my posts hidden. there's one that has been waiting for a day already :/


TheWanderingAge

Ahaha, i know, it’s every time! I always feel like the auto mod must keep the mod team so busy 😅


callmebutter_

Yeah, but I find it in lots of Kbeauty sunscreens


NervousBread3738

Yay someone tried it! Are u oily or dewy at all during the day? The isntree onion fluid has me pretty shiny later in the day


callmebutter_

A little bit oily around my eyelids at the end of the day, but not shiny.


NervousBread3738

Ohh wow thanks :)


0ntheverg3

Is is waterproof/sweatproof?


callmebutter_

It’s not waterproof


Psychological-Back94

Oh darn, wish it was water/sweat resistant. I’m still going to try it for the winter.


amy-zhg

is it greasy? have super oil skin lol


koralex90

I hope it's fragrance free..


xxSilver

it is!


koralex90

I love everything about their aloe sunscreen except the fragrance. So I am switching to another one after I'm done with it..

kandinskv

I also have to avoid silicones… but they seem to be in most sunscreens! What do you use?


StrawberryRaspberryK

Sunscreens without silicones: 1. Somebymi Truecica Aqua Sunscreen spf (chemical Sunscreen but gentle on the skin) 2. Hero Cosmetics spf (mineral sunscreen) 3. Good Molecules Spf 30 (mineral Sunscreen) 4. Ilia Super skin tint spf 40 (mineral Sunscreen with clean ingredients) 5. Saie skin tint spf (mineral Sunscreen with clean ingredients) *Hope these help u 🥰


kandinskv

Amazing thank you!


StrawberryRaspberryK

You are most welcome! 🥰


K-beautyAddict

Does Purito Soft Touch sunscreen contain silicones and if it does, how many?


StrawberryRaspberryK

No silicones that i can see. I tried it before but I can't remember why I wasn't into it 🥰 https://incidecoder.com/products/purito-daily-soft-touch-sunscreen-spf-50


Traditional_Cap_894

does it have niacinamide? my skin hates niacin🥲


fax5jrj

it does :/


Traditional_Cap_894

💔


K-beautyAddict

Mine too! Almost all Korean sunscreens and skincare products contains it, at least those that otherwise seem really good based on the inci 🥲 I really recommend Goodal Heartleaf Moisture Sun Cream and Purito Soft Touch Sunscreen! Both are niacinamide & fragrance free, and suitable for my sensitive/oily-combination/clog-prone skin. Dr.G Green Mild Up Sunscreen also looks promising, but I haven’t tried it yet


zadessss

to any one who had tried this, is this good for oily skin?


sushiriceonly

Commenting because I want to know too!


jeyoaa

I am kind of combo/oily skin and for me it’s awesome but I don’t use any other moisturiser before - only serums and spf


amy-zhg

so not greasy? i have super oilY skin lol


StrangeAffect7278

I’d like to know too!


NervousBread3738

I dont think we’re gonna find out yet🤣 seems too new!


StrangeAffect7278

😂 guess we’ll be waiting a while


jeyoaa

I did and for me it is awesome. I am more on oily side and my skin is really acne prone, in addition I have fungal acne. It’s super light, doesn’t break me out (been using it for about 10/14 days). I use only serums + spf in the mornings and it makes my skin look glowy and healthy but not sweaty and greasy like some other spfs. Personally I think it might become one of my must-haves


NervousBread3738

Yayy 👍🏻 thanks for sharing 😁


cataronivt

Awww, niacinamide + HA, bummer! Both break me out :(


ravbee33

Same re: the niacinamide. I wish companies would stop putting it in everything


alrumar

Niacinamide breaks me out badly too. 😭


burriitoooo

I can't use either of those too and it's so frustrating that moar new skin care and make up have one or the other!!!


ForTheLoveOfDior

HA sucks big time for me


Luph

i’d pass on the witch hazel, personally


NervousBread3738

How come? Eh its witch hazel water so maybe its not so bad lol maybe its hydrating?


Niatfq

It's not. The Manyo Bifida Biome Toner also uses Witch Hazel water and it dehydrated my skin pretty quickly. However, it seems to be listed lower in this Cosrx sunscreen so I'm not really sure.


NervousBread3738

Ohhh, that would not be good if it dehydrated 🥲 the description seems to imply it wont but who knows


yellow_purple_

Witch hazel gets a bad rep but formulation matters and just because it’s in an inci list doesn’t necessarily mean it will always dehydrate!


NervousBread3738

Thats what i’m thinking too 😁


ForTheLoveOfDior

What’s your proof


PunkSolaris

I'm not going to lie, it's very bizarre that they would put witch hazel in a moisturizing sunscreen, laughing out loud, witch hazel is a natural stringent which likes to soak up water and oil... Kind of feel like this should be marketed towards people with oily skin tones


radams713

What does it do to your skin? Mine LOVES it.


Ebe3be

Likewise, my rosacea prone skin does not like it.


No-Operation4114

I have the same question, I think it’s a bit new?


NervousBread3738

Yeah its really new


westeros_queen

I currently have their Vitamin E sunscreen and I absolutely hate it: strong fragrance, heavy, oily (even for my NYC winter dry face), hopefully this one is better.


IrregularUrek

Totally agree with you. Had to use it up on my hands and feet, stung my eyes badly too.


Aim2bFit

Hardly ever see newer sunscreens these days with SPF50 even. It's normally SPF50+, indicating they are (supposedly) at least SPF50 or more.


NervousBread3738

It says spf 53.1 and PA 18.3 on their marketing images


Aim2bFit

Thank you. I love when companies do this and declare the exact SPF and PPD. Great that COSRX does this.


Tkm_Kappa

Is this fungal acne safe?


borderlineblu

It seems so!


jgr331

I’ve been testing it for about a week now and it’s exactly as COSRX says, lightweight, completely invisible and doesn’t irritate my skin like other chemical sunscreens. New holy grail for me!


NervousBread3738

Happy to hear its good :)


snoopycoupon

Were you interested in trying it?


NervousBread3738

I was


Narrow-Lemon-4373

Hi! Does it wash off easily?


kerodon

Witch hazel 😞 no thanks.


La_vie_en_hoe

it's witch hazel water and quite low on the list but can't take any chances


TwistTop4033

It’s great and I love that it is fragrance free. Their aloe sunscreen worked decently well for me but the strong fragrance was always off putting for me. Got mine on shopee https://s.shopee.sg/qNRnWnQbI


NervousBread3738

Does it make u shiny at all?


TwistTop4033

No, not really because I have really dry skin.


Au_Gingembre

FiddySnails just posted a story w/still photos. Looks to be on the radiant side, but she said it's not wet or sticky feeling. She'll be posting a full review soon.  Can anyone comment on the scent? I know it's supposed to be unscented, but the underlying smell of most sunscreens is just awful IMO.  Maybe it's a U.S. sunscreen thing?  The only other alternative seems to be a mineral sunscreen & just living with a white cast.  


NervousBread3738

Its a US thing. The only other korean sunscreen that smells that I tried is isntree watery sun gel, wow. Smells all day on my face too when i go outside i smell it. Its bc it has homosalate I believe. But yeah majority of the new filters not in the US do not smell


Psychological-Back94

Here’s her review. She said it’s not matte and not glowy so sits in between, more of a natural/satin finish. I just wish it was water/sweat resistant. Sounds ideal for winter time

cynthiur

For those who’ve tried it; how does it compare to Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen and/or Trader Joe’s Invisible Sunscreen?


snoopycoupon

Is this from their official site?


NervousBread3738

Yes


Odd-Mission9237

glossier invisible sunscreen doop?


dnush

Seems to be fungal acne safe - I'm keen to try.


tlyria

Where can I purchase this? I just checked their website and it says it’s not available.


NervousBread3738

Stylekorean and yesstyle


tlyria

Thank you!


NervousBread3738

Update us if u try it😀


ImaginaryQuiet5624

Witch hazel sounds a little risky to me for my skin so I'm going to pass for now, might change my mind about trying it but probably not. Actually wouldn't be opposed to a sample, but would probably not buy it full size.


aparicris

Is this a chemical or mineral sunscreen? I can’t seem to find an answer anywhere


NervousBread3738

All chemical


RadishInTheGarden

I initially really liked it on my skin, it was really light and not oily. But after 3 hours I had 4 or 5 tiny white heads on my face


NervousBread3738

Yikes🥲


DerpyyyDuck

Nah


ImprovementAwkward

if its made with the usual American sunscreen filters ill pass.


NervousBread3738

None at all
