The Ultimate Guide to Mastering Beauty of Joseon: Relief Sun and Aqua-Fresh
Share
Inspired by the age-old beauty secrets of the Joseon Dynasty, we have incorporated natural ingredients such as rice, ginseng and herbs, combined with the most advanced skincare technologies.
Among our favorite products, we are proud to present our Relief Sun , a nourishing and versatile sunscreen, and the all-new Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh , light and fast-absorbing.
These two sunscreens, formulated with rice and probiotics or B5, are designed to meet the needs of different skin types.
This guide will help you better understand the differences between these two formulas so you can choose the one that best suits your skin.
Know your skin before choosing your sunscreen
Before choosing your favorite sunscreen, it's essential to know your skin. We encourage you to identify your skin type—oiled, dry, combination, or sensitive—as well as your main skin concerns: acne, dryness, hyperpigmentation, aging, enlarged pores, etc.
For example, if you have dry skin and sun damage, we recommend our original Relief Sun. If your skin is oily, acne-prone and prone to dehydration, Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh will be ideal for hydrating your skin while protecting it from the sun without clogging pores.
Relief Sun vs. Aqua-Fresh: What's the Difference?
Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics is a chemical sunscreen with SPF 50+ PA++++ protection, formulated with rice extract and probiotics. It deeply hydrates, soothes, and nourishes the skin with antioxidants, making it an ideal option for dry, sensitive, or normal skin, providing both sun protection and hydration.
Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh: Rice + B5 , also with SPF 50+ PA++++, is formulated with rice extract and vitamin B5 (Panthenol). Its light, non-sticky texture and ability to absorb quickly provide a cooling effect on the skin. Its transparent, non-greasy finish makes it particularly suitable for oily, combination and acne-prone skin, providing sun protection without clogging pores.
The results of the panel test
To assess the real-world effectiveness of Relief Sun and Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh sunscreens, we conducted a test with a panel of customers, primarily those with oily or acne-prone skin. Participants used both products and shared their results in photos. Our goal was to highlight the sheer finish of Aqua-Fresh and the rich texture of Relief Sun , to provide a clear comparison based on real-life experiences.
Here's what some of our testers said:
- alyzzasiraj : "Aqua-Fresh is so light, it feels like you're not wearing anything on your face, which I love."
- glamwith.zee : "I've been using Relief Sun for years, but Aqua-Fresh has become my new favorite. Its texture is ultra-light and refreshing to apply."
- breinabae : "Relief Sun gives a natural luminous effect, while Aqua-Fresh offers a transparent finish, perfect for oily and acne-prone skin."
Generally, people with oily skin preferred the hydrating, yet light and absorbent texture of Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh .
Which product is right for you?
Whether you need the intense, nourishing hydration of Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics for dry, sensitive skin, or the lightweight, sheer finish of Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh: Rice + B5 for oily or acne-prone skin, both formulas offer exceptional sun protection. Each product is enriched with rice-derived ingredients and additional beneficial components, such as probiotics and panthenol.
By better understanding your skin's needs—whether it's hydration, oil control, or soothing—you can choose the sunscreen that's best for you. Take the time to assess your skin type and its specific needs, and let our products enrich your skincare routine with effective protection and radiant results.
