Essences are a staple in Korean skin care, and are typically applied after toner as a liquid hydrating, nourishing product. But essences can also come in the form of skin care-packed sunscreen. Our new Essence Light Sunscreen provides broad spectrum SPF 50 protection in a lightweight ferment enriched formula that blends seamlessly into all skin tones for a hydrated and luminous complexion.
This must-have, year-round effortless essential features fermented sake extract to moisturize and help protect your skin from environmental stressors and a blend of ceramides, hyaluronic acid and provitamin B5 to leave skin with a dewy, radiant finish.
The skin-nourishing formula allows this barely-there chemical sunscreen to be worn alone or as a base for makeup application without pilling or cakiness. Pairs perfectly at the end of the day with our cult favorite Living Cleansing Balm to melt away sunscreen without stripping away skin of its moisture.
