At this point, we can probably all agree that there are many, many good reasons to make sunscreen part of your daily beauty routine. From protecting skin from harmful UVA/UVB rays to preventing sunburn and premature signs of aging, the benefits of using sunscreen are endless. However, not all SPFs are created equal and you may be on the hunt for a sunscreen that covers all of your skin care bases, that will hydrate and nourish your epidermis while still providing sun protection and remaining invisible regardless of your skin tone. If that’s the case, we may have found your perfect match.
The Cosrx Vitalizing SPF 50 face sunscreen, priced at $22, is a lesser-known product from the brand behind the ultra-popular “Power Essence” snail mucin serum. Aside from delivering a strong sun protection factor of 50, this K-beauty offering features a vitamin E-enriched formula that protects the skin from damage caused by free radicals and strengthens skin. Other standout ingredients, including cacao and cotton, help to fight signs of aging and alleviate redness. And according to some of the reviewers you’ll see ahead, there’s no need to worry about sporting a white-cast post-application.
“I absolutely love this sunscreen,” one reviewer noted. “I’ve posted about how good it is, and now I’m on my 10th purchase of this sunscreen, and I will continue to say how great it is. No white cast, no dryness, just nicely hydrated skin. This sunscreen goes on so smoothly, blends in well, and gives you a nice glow. It hydrates the skin like a moisturizer. It has a very nice smell, something most sunscreens don’t have. It doesn’t sit heavy either. I’ve tried many different brands of sunscreens and this is my go-to. I also love that this has vitamin E in it because vitamin E is essential in skin care.”
