this one contains a few oils and T-Butyl alcohol (swipe for full ingredients list), though my skin never react badly to this, it’s something worth noting. 

if you’re like me with oily skin and in a constant hunt for a non-greasy and actually WATERPROOF korean sunscreen, look no more besties… i got you! 💪🏻 prior to receiving this sunscreen from @facerepublic.sg, i’ve seen quite a number of promising reviews about it and true enough, i’m in love. 😍

the Purity Sun Essence is a sunscreen with a physical filter, namely zinc oxide, which claims to be waterproof with a lightweight, non-sticky finish. not all brands would have the confidence to put “without white cast” on their sunscreen packaging, but @facerepublic deliver on their promises. 👌🏻 it has a lightweight, lotion-like consistency that is easy to spread, no white streaks and leaving behind zero white cast on me. it has a pretty strong milky, typical sunscreen smell which i have no issue with, but it might not be for everyone. the scent goes away quickly after application. 

now, it does take time to absorb so i won’t suggest to apply on damp skin or you’ll look like a hot shiny mess. once it dries down, it leaves a nice, dewy finish that is not too shiny on my oily skin. ✨ it doesn’t feel greasy throughout the day even after reapplication and under the hot weather here, but my skin does look a little bit more shiny after (still on acceptable level 😂). 

its texture and finish are HIGHLY similar to Isntree’s and BOJ’s (i’ve reviewed both) but this one wins my heart solely due to it being waterproof (i have no problem working out with this on) and its price point - $18.90 for 50ml at Shopee SG. it’s a no brainer that i will purchase it myself once i run out. 🤩 love the slim tube packaging too, making it convenient to bring anywhere. 

overall, i would recommend this to all skin types, except super oily skin AND sensitive skin. oily skin like myself can get away without moisturizer and dry skin peeps can apply a light layer of cream underneath for extra moisture. 


contains alcohol denat (4th on inci list) which we all know may dry out the skin and even damage skin barrier for some. not the most ideal for very sensitive skin, though personally i never had any bad reaction towards alcohol in skincare. with that in mind, it’s up to you to decide if it’s something you would like or avoid. 

it is also not sweat-proof which is a bummer, but it doesn’t sting my eyes when i sweat! 

most korean sunscreens i’ve tried are way too greasy/heavy for my oily skin & the humid tropical weather here, but @b_lab_global came through with their new SPF and my faith in k-sunscreens is slowly restoring. 🤩 here’s why. 

☀️𝗧𝗘𝗫𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘: light milky gel.
☀️𝗦𝗖𝗘𝗡𝗧: typical sunscreen smell with a bit of alcohol scent, goes away sometime after application.
☀️𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗜𝗦𝗛: natural dewy, semi-matte finish. not oily/shiny.

I’M IN LOVE with this baby! it ticks almost all i ever wanted from a sunscreen - no white cast, spreads easily, absorbs crazy fast, semi-matte finish, non-sticky, and most importantly it keeps the shine off my oily skin throughout the day! there’s a cooling, tingly sensation after initial application which doesn’t bother me, but it might sting a little on compromised area. it gives a slight sheen at first but when dried down, it just leaves a natural healthy glow on the skin which feels hydrating but not oily or greasy at all! 

i didn’t experience any pilling but it also depends on the products you layer underneath. it’s lightweight too which make reapplication a breeze. i’m not sure how it will do under makeup as i don’t wear any. 

💰𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗜 𝗣𝗨𝗥𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗦𝗘? heck yes! priced as low as $6.90 for 50ml, it is super value for money! not only affordable, it works so beautifully on my skin too. their SPF rating has also been verified  so we can all have a peace of mind. if you’re still on the fence, please just try it out! 🥺 i’d recommend for all skin types except those who are sensitive with alcohol. 

i’d recommend this for all skin types, except maybe super oily skin. 

🍚𝗧𝗘𝗫𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘 & 𝗦𝗖𝗘𝗡𝗧: has 2 separated water and emulsion layers, so you gotta shake it before use. the consistency is light and watery with just a little bit of body to it. no discernible scent. 

🍚𝗞𝗘𝗬 𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗗𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗦:
• 77.8% rice extract - brighten and moisturize skin.
• niacinamide
✅ no alcohol, fragrance & EOs.

i love the way this applies on my skin! it has a nice slippery feel which makes it glides across the skin so smoothly. it also doesn’t leave any sticky and tacky residue when layered. i usually do up to 2 layers, more than that i find it way too greasy for my oily skin and the products i put on next will not absorb properly. with that said, i prefer to use it at night as it might be too much for daytime, especially under the hot and humid weather here. 

it absorbs well, leaving my skin so moisturized and soft to the touch. i’m not kidding when i said that i could instantly notice the brightening effect. 🤩 it gives a beautiful healthy glow on the skin and it didn’t cause me any irritation/breakouts. it also layers well with my other products. 

💸𝙒𝙄𝙇𝙇 𝙄 𝙋𝙐𝙍𝘾𝙃𝘼𝙎𝙀? yes! dry dehydrated skin will be the most suitable demographic for this toner, especially if you live in cold climates. oily skin worry not, due its light consistency, it moisturizes just enough and won’t be heavily suffocating for nighttime use. i recommend 1-2 layers but dry skin can definitely do more. i’m in love and won’t hesitate to purchase in the future. 🥰

it does look greasier when you reapply throughout the day. do note this is not waterproof as well which is a bummer. 🥲

this is a chemical sunscreen from @beautyofjoseon_official with its SPF 50 certified in Korea & Spain, so we all can have a peace of mind especially after all the controversies. it contains 4 new-generation UV filters that give the highest photo-stable absorption compared to all currently available UV filters (swipe to see full ingredients list), in which you rarely find in most Korean sunscreens! other main ingredients being 30% rice extract & grain probiotics complex are included to help strengthen the skin barrier. it’s also free of alcohol, fragrance & EOs! 👍

y’all know how i feel about korean sunscreens for my oily skin (+ under hot tropical weather here) but i gotta say this one managed to impress! 🤩 it has that typical korean sunscreen’s thick creamy texture, but it feels surprisingly lightweight & not heavy at all! it spreads easily, no white streak & absorb fast with zero white cast on me. it feels very moisturizing yet non-greasy. 😲 it does give you an initial glazed-donut look aka very dewy, but it subsides after fully absorbed, leaving a nice healthy glow on the skin. ✨

this doesn’t make my face feel heavy & suffocating at all under the crazy hot weather outside. it doesn’t make me look like a walking disco ball too which is very much appreciated (unlike isntree’s 👀). i didn’t experience any pilling. 

i would recommend this to all skin types, except maybe super oily skin. dry-combo skin types will enjoy this most as it’s very moisturizing. oily skin peeps like me would love this too, but i’d suggest to skip moisturizer. if you live in cold places, you may choose to apply a thin layer of light cream underneath for extra moisture. overall, this is a pretty solid sunscreen and i can see myself emptying this tube. 😍

now, if you’re looking for a wash-off mask to use while mutitasking, sorry to disappoint but this is not it. the thick texture turns runny and watery on the skin, so you gotta lie down while at it. even when lying down, i still had some dripped down into my mouth and all over my neck and chest. 😖 the key is to apply a thinner layer to reduce the dripping. 

💸𝙒𝙄𝙇𝙇 𝙄 𝙋𝙐𝙍𝘾𝙃𝘼𝙎𝙀? nope. this is not necessary for my routine. the results are not permanent, and i can achieve the same, if not more from my serums and creams. however, it’s good to have in your stash whenever your skin needs extra pampering! i think all skin types will easily enjoy this, except those who are sensitive with fragrances & heating products. 

🪵𝗧𝗘𝗫𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘 & 𝗦𝗖𝗘𝗡𝗧: caramel, translucent syrup that is thick & viscous. it looks & smell more like honey than the Honey Mask itself imo. 😳 

🪵𝗞𝗘𝗬 𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗗𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗦:
• 3.97% red ginseng extract - for antioxidants. 
• panax ginseng seed oil - act as an emollient.
• amurense bark extract - anti-inflammatory and soothing.
• glycerin & HA - moisturize the skin.
⚠️ contains fragrance.

this wash-off mask claims to purify the skin, improve elasticity and get rid of dead skin cells + excess sebums. the mask warms up as you massaged it into the skin, but nothing too overwhelming. in fact, i find it very theurapeutical! 😌 it also spreads smooth & easily with no tugging involved. 

i usually leave it on for 15 mins as instructed. i love how fuss-free it is to rinse. it removes easily with water without leaving any residue. my skin feels soft & smooth afterwards. it doesn’t dry out my skin too! i can’t attest to its anti-aging claims yet but i noticed brighter complexion and smaller pores after each usage! 👍
