Beauty of Joseon sunscreen has quietly become the most searched K-beauty SPF on the internet, and for good reason. Rooted in Korean hanbang (traditional medicine) philosophy, every Beauty of Joseon formula pairs modern UV protection with ingredients your grandmother would recognize: rice, ginseng, mugwort, camellia. The result is a lineup of sunscreens that protect without the heavy white cast, the tight sting, or the pilling that plagued a generation of American SPF.
At Mirai Skin we stock the full Beauty of Joseon sunscreen range, shipped fast from within the US, so you can skip the customs wait and the gray-market resellers. Below is an honest guide to every Beauty of Joseon sunscreen we carry, who each one is for, and how to choose the right one for your skin.
Why Beauty of Joseon sunscreens went viral
There are hundreds of K-beauty sunscreens on the market. Beauty of Joseon broke through for three reasons. First, texture: the Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics formula (and its successors) set a new standard for how light a chemical SPF could feel on combo and dry skin. Second, the price: under $20 for 50ml of SPF50+ PA++++ protection made it impossible to ignore. Third, the ingredient story: rice extract, grain probiotics, ginseng, and mugwort gave dermatology-literate buyers something to point to beyond "Korean = glow."
The collection has since expanded into tinted fluid veils and matte sun sticks, which is exactly what a mature sunscreen category looks like. You no longer pick a single BOJ SPF and call it a day; you pick the BOJ sunscreen that matches your skin type, your outfit, and your makeup.

Beauty of Joseon Daily Tinted Fluid Sunscreen (Veil Cover) SPF50+ PA+++
This is the BOJ tinted sunscreen everyone has been waiting for. A weightless, skin-tone-adapting fluid that blurs pores, evens tone, and locks in SPF50+ PA+++ UV filters, without the gray mineral cast of older tinted sunscreens. It layers under makeup without pilling and wears alone as a "no-makeup makeup" skin veil for running errands. Ideal for combination, normal, and oily-dehydrated skin types.
Beauty of Joseon Matte Sun Stick: Mugwort + Camelia (Double Set)
A true matte finish sun stick built for reapplication. The mugwort stick calms redness and is great for sensitive, breakout-prone skin; the camellia stick locks in hydration and glow. Together they cover SPF50+ PA++++ for body, hairline, and touch-ups over makeup. Keep one in your bag for hikes, beach days, or anywhere you cannot be bothered to rub in a cream.
How to choose the right Beauty of Joseon sunscreen
- Dry to normal skin, no makeup: Daily Tinted Fluid Veil Cover.
- Oily or acne-prone skin: Matte Sun Stick (Mugwort) for a shine-free finish.
- Reapplying over makeup at lunch: Matte Sun Stick (Camelia) glides on cleanly.
- Tone correction and glass-skin glow: Daily Tinted Fluid layered with a drop of face oil.

How to layer Beauty of Joseon sunscreen in your routine
Sunscreen is always the final step of your morning skincare routine, applied after moisturizer and before makeup. Use two finger-lengths of a fluid sunscreen, or four passes of a stick, for the full SPF50+ protection on the label. Wait ninety seconds before layering makeup to avoid pilling.
Reapply every two hours outdoors and every four hours indoors near windows. Beauty of Joseon stick formats are engineered for touch-ups because they glide over existing makeup without disturbing it.
Pair your Beauty of Joseon sunscreen with the right base
Beauty of Joseon sunscreens perform best layered over a hydrating, non-occlusive moisturizer. For oily and combination skin, pair with a lightweight gel cream. For dry skin, a rice-based lotion such as Anua Rice 70 Intense Moisturizing Milk complements the rice-family scent and feel of BOJ formulas.
