What is included in the Beauty of Joseon Sunscreen Duo?
The Beauty of Joseon Sunscreen Duo is a curated sun protection set featuring two full-sized best-sellers: the Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics (50ml) cream and the Matte Sun Stick: Mugwort + Camelia (18g). This combination is designed to provide a perfect hydrating base in the morning and a convenient, matte-finish option for reapplication throughout the day.
How do I use the Relief Sun cream and Matte Sun Stick together?
For maximum protection, apply the Relief Sun cream as the final step of your morning skincare routine. Its lightweight, lotion-like texture melts into the skin as a base layer. Every 2–3 hours, glide the Matte Sun Stick over your face to maintain UV protection. The stick is specifically designed for mess-free reapplication and helps control excess oil that builds up during the day.
Does the Beauty of Joseon Sunscreen Duo leave a white cast?
No, both products in this duo are formulated with organic (chemical) filters that are completely transparent upon application. They are suitable for all skin tones, including darker complexions, providing high SPF 50+ protection without leaving any chalky, ashy, or white residue on the skin.
Is the Matte Sun Stick suitable for use over makeup?
Yes, the Matte Sun Stick is famous for its "non-greasy" and "no-clump" formula, making it ideal for use over makeup. It contains silica powder to absorb sebum, which helps mattify the skin and prevents your makeup from smudging or looking oily during reapplication. It is recommended to glide it gently over the skin to avoid disturbing your foundation.
What are the benefits of Rice and Probiotics in the Relief Sun cream?
The Relief Sun cream contains 30% Rice Extract and Grain Fermented Extracts (Probiotics). Rice is a traditional Korean beauty ingredient rich in vitamins and minerals that help brighten the skin. The probiotics help balance the skin's microbiome and strengthen the moisture barrier, ensuring your skin remains hydrated and healthy while protected from the sun.
Is this duo good for oily and acne-prone skin?
Absolutely. While the Relief Sun cream provides a moist, "glass skin" finish, the Matte Sun Stick is perfect for oily skin types as it uses Mugwort and Camelia to soothe the skin while the silica powder controls shine. Both products are lightweight, non-comedogenic, and designed to prevent the "suffocating" feeling often associated with traditional sunscreens.
Why is the Matte Sun Stick formulated with Mugwort?
Mugwort is a staple Hanbang ingredient known for its powerful anti-inflammatory and cooling properties. When used in the Matte Sun Stick, it helps to soothe skin that has been heated by UV rays and environmental stress. This makes it particularly effective for those who experience redness or sensitivity when spent in the sun for long periods.
