#1 For Dry & Combination Skin – Every Sun Day™ Fluid Korean Sunscreen SPF 50+ for Face
Skin need: Dry or combination skin that craves hydration and a radiant finish
Our pick: Every Sun Day™ Fluid Korean Sunscreen SPF 50+ for Face
Why we love it:
This light liquid Korean sunscreen leaves no white cast behind — just a hydrated, healthy-looking finish.
The fluid texture glides on easily, giving skin a radiant look rather than a heavy matte feel. On our Sun & UV Protection page, this version is specifically noted as ideal for dry and combination skin.
How to use: After your day moisturizer, apply a dime-size amount as the last step of your morning routine.
#2 For Oily & Acne-Prone Skin – Every Sun Day™ Mineral Korean Sunscreen SPF 50+ for Face
Skin need: Oily, acne-prone, or sensitive skin that prefers a matte finish and non-greasy texture
Our pick: Every Sun Day™ Mineral Korean Sunscreen SPF 50+ for Face
Why we love it:
This mineral (physical filter) sunscreen contains Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide to deliver broad-spectrum protection.
It provides a matte finish and works for all skin types, including sensitive skin. If you experience oiliness or shine, this lightweight texture helps keep your skin balanced and comfortable.
How to use: Apply as the final step in your morning routine. In humid or sweaty conditions, its matte finish helps control excess shine.
#3 For On-the-Go Reapplication – Every Sun Day™ Invisible Korean Sunscreen Stick SPF 40
Skin need: All skin types, especially when you need easy, portable protection throughout the day
Our pick: Every Sun Day™ Invisible Korean Sunscreen Stick SPF 40
Why we love it:
This travel-friendly stick features SPF 40 protection and includes Hyaluronic Acid to help keep skin hydrated. It offers a weightless, invisible finish that glides seamlessly over makeup.
Because SPF should be reapplied every 2–3 hours, this convenient stick helps you stay protected wherever your day takes you.
How to use: Keep it in your bag, desk, or car, and reapply after outdoor exposure, sweating, or when your protection starts to fade.
#4 For Sensitive or Barrier-Weakened Skin – Cicapair™ Soothing Color Correcting Treatment SPF 30
Skin need: Redness, sensitivity, or a compromised skin barrier
Our pick: Cicapair™ Soothing Color Correcting Treatment SPF 30
Why we love it:
This hybrid tinted treatment delivers SPF 30 while supporting skin’s barrier and helping reduce visible redness.
It’s ideal when your skin feels sensitive or reactive — offering both calming care and daily UV protection.
How to use: Apply when your skin looks red or feels sensitive. It doubles as a color-corrector and protective base under makeup.
#5 The Everyday All-Rounder – The Every Sun Day™ Collection
Skin need: All skin types looking for a hydrating sunscreen to wear comfortably every day
Our pick: The Every Sun Day™ Korean Sunscreen Collection
Why we love it:
Our Every Sun Day™ collection features three distinct textures:
- A fluid formula for a radiant finish
- A creamy mineral formula for a matte finish
- A sunscreen stick with Hyaluronic Acid for invisible, on-the-go protection
If you’re unsure which is right for you, this collection lets you explore your texture preference and finish — because SPF should feel as good as it protects.
How to use: Compare the fluid, mineral, and stick formats to find the one that best fits your skin type and lifestyle.

- Dermatological precision: We design specific options for dry, oily, and sensitive skin, plus travel-friendly formats.

Your Hydrating Sunscreen Questions, Answered
Q1: How do I choose between mineral vs. chemical sunscreen?
Our mineral (physical) sunscreens sit on the skin’s surface and are less likely to cause irritation.
Chemical (non-mineral) sunscreens absorb into the skin and convert UV rays into heat.
If you have sensitive skin or prefer a matte finish, choose the Mineral SPF 50+. For a lighter texture and radiant finish, try the Fluid SPF 50+.
Q2: Does a hydrating sunscreen replace moisturizer?
No — hydrating SPF formulas help add comfort, but they don’t replace your moisturizer. The Fluid SPF 50+, for example, provides a hydrated finish but should be applied after your skincare routine.
Q3: How often should I reapply?
Even high-SPF formulas need reapplication every 2–3 hours when you’re outdoors, especially after sweating or swimming. The Invisible Stick SPF 40 makes this step easy.
Q4: Will these sunscreens leave a white cast?
Our Fluid version specifically notes “no white cast” and leaves a hydrated, healthy-looking finish.
If you have deeper skin tones, we recommend testing along your jawline in daylight for the best match.
