Why do you need sunscreen?
Prolonged exposure to the harsh UV rays of the sun can damage the skin’s layers and cause discolorations, wrinkles, and sagging. In some cases, too much direct UV exposure can even lead to skin cancer. This is where sunscreens step in. Sunscreens are made of different blends of ingredients that help block harsh UV rays from penetrating the skin.
In recent years, Korean sunscreens have been very popular because they are quite multifunctional. Not only do they work as sun protection, but also feature hydrating, brightening, and even anti-aging features.
How to choose the Best Korean Sunscreen for Summer
Choose a fast-absorbing formula. - Go for lightweight formulas like water-based, gel-based, or spray moisturizing sunscreens. Heavy formulas usually leave a white cast and may feel greasy on the skin.
It’s better if they are waterproof and sweatproof. - Not all sunscreens are waterproof and sweatproof but these types of formulas will save you the hassle of having to deal with a smearing sunscreen. By having your sunscreen intact, you get long-lasting sun protection without having to reapply too often.
What’s the ideal SPF level your sunscreen should have during the summer season?
Dermatologists recommend using sunscreen that has SPF 30 or higher. With how the climate is getting hotter than before, the skin is more prone to high levels of UV. This is why the higher the SPF, the better.
