Curated, not stocked.
Daily SPF is one of the most evidence-backed steps in any skincare routine, and the reason many people skip it is texture. Beauty of Joseon addresses that directly — a probiotic and rice extract base that supports the skin barrier while delivering SPF 50 protection. We stock it because good compliance with sunscreen is as much about formulation as it is about awareness.
About this product
Beauty of Joseon Rice Sunscreen
Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice and Probiotics is a Korean SPF 50 sunscreen that combines sun protection with a skin-calming formulation. Rice extract — a long-standing ingredient in Korean skincare — is used here for its ability to brighten and soothe the skin's surface, while probiotics are included to help support the skin's natural barrier. The result is a daily sunscreen that does more than block UV rays; it works with the skin rather than against it.
This formulation suits a wide range of skin types, including sensitive or reactive complexions that often find mineral or chemical sunscreens irritating. The texture is notably lightweight, which makes it a practical final step in both morning routines and layered skincare regimens without leaving a heavy residue or pronounced white cast — a common concern with SPF products.
Beauty of Joseon has built a reputation in the K-beauty space for accessible, ingredient-led formulations that prioritise skin health over novelty. Their sunscreens in particular have attracted consistent attention from both skincare communities and dermatologists for their cosmetic elegance without sacrificing broad-spectrum protection. For anyone who has historically skipped daily SPF due to texture or finish, this is a considered alternative worth trialling.

Common questions
Frequently asked
Is this suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
The formulation includes probiotics and rice extract, both of which are generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin types. That said, individual responses vary — patch-testing on a small area first is always sensible if your skin is prone to reactions.
Does it leave a white cast?
Beauty of Joseon's rice sunscreen is widely noted for a lighter finish compared to many SPF products, though experience can vary depending on skin tone and the amount applied. It is designed to minimise the white cast associated with many sun creams.
Can I wear this under makeup?
Yes. Apply it as the final step of your skincare routine and allow it to settle for a minute or two before applying makeup. Its lightweight texture makes it a practical base.
How does this differ from a standard sunscreen?
Beyond UV protection, this formulation incorporates rice extract and probiotics — ingredients associated with skin-soothing and barrier-support properties. It is closer to a hybrid skincare-SPF product than a functional-only sun cream.
How much should I apply to get the stated SPF protection?
As a general guide, a full teaspoon (around 2.5ml) spread evenly across the face and neck is the standard recommendation for achieving the labelled SPF. Using too little is one of the most common reasons sunscreen under-performs in practice.
