Korean beauty brands excel in creating sunscreens that provide top-notch sun protection, feel great on the skin, and offer skincare benefits. The Beauty of Joseon sunscreen stick is a fine example with soothing ingredients like panthenol, centella asiatica, hyaluronic acid, artemisia capillaris, and green tea extract, making it a great choice for sun protection and skin care.
If you’re new to my blog, you may not know that I am a big fan of the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen. So naturally, when they released their new sunscreen stick, I had high expectations. In this blog post, we’ll look into the key features of the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen stick, examine its application, performance, and suitability for various skin types.
BRAND CLAIMS
Introducing our engineered sun stick featuring a matte formula that glides smoothly, delivering a non-clumpy, non-greasy finish, even when applied over makeup. We have harnessed the power of sebum-control silica powder to regulate oil production, providing an adherence boost and a velvety, matte texture. Enriched with artemisia capillaris and green tea extracts, it not only enhances skin texture but also keeps it adequately hydrated.
Enjoy the benefits of a non-greasy, matte sun stick that eliminates any oily or sticky sensations. Its convenient stick format allows hygienic application without the need for hands, making it perfect for on-the-go use anytime, anywhere. Thanks to the porous sebum-control silica powder, your skin will experience a smooth and soft-rolling sensation, free from any unwanted greasiness.
PACKAGING
The sun stick is presented in a compact, twist-up tube format, which I find adorable. Although it’s smaller than I imagined, its performance more than makes up for the size.
The sun stick comes in a rectangular design. This unique shape offers convenience during reapplication, easily reaching all parts of the face without any difficulty.
FRAGRANCE
The Beauty of Joseon sun stick is fragrance-free, making it a suitable choice for sensitive skin.

BEAUTY OF JOSEON SUNSCREEN INGREDIENTS
Beauty of Joseon sun stick is formulated without the 6 controversial UV filters, opting for safe and modern UV filters instead. This makes it a safe and suitable choice even for use during pregnancy. What I like most about this sun stick is that this sun stick lives up to its claim of being matte and is exceptionally budget-friendly. Beauty of Joseon sun stick not only meets its claims but also stands out as an affordable and safe choice, addressing the issues I encountered with other sunscreens.
REVIEW
Skin Type – Normal Sensitive
The formula is matte and contains soothing ingredients like centella asiatica, panthenol, and hyaluronic acid. While the size is a bit smaller than I initially expected, its budget-friendly price and frequent sales make up for it.
TEXTURE | WHITECAST
At first touch, it feels a bit waxy. Upon application, it feels soft and smooth on the skin without any irritation or residue. There is no fragrance or white cast which makes it perfect for my sensitive skin. The sun stick’s non-oily and non-greasy formula effectively controls oiliness throughout the day.
BREAKOUTS | SKIN IRRITATIONS
I rely on heavy moisturizers (occlusives) to soothe my sore, peeling skin caused by retinol use. The sun stick initially doesn’t make my skin feel tight, at least for the first couple of hours. But, after the third reapplication, my skin tends to feel tight and stretched. The good thing is that it hasn’t led to any clogged pores or breakouts, which makes it suitable for all skin types.
SWEAT RESISTANT | WATERPROOF
The sun stick works well for daily use and doesn’t come off with sweat. Do note that the brand doesn’t advertise the sun stick as waterproof or sweat-resistant.
SOOTHES REDNESS?
It could be just my personal experience, but I’ve noticed that whenever my sensitive skin looks flushed and feels warm after massaging the primary sunscreen, applying this sun stick over it brings a calming effect within 5-7 minutes. If you have sensitive skin, like me, I strongly suggest giving this sun stick a go.
NEGATIVE POINTS🤔
The product is smaller than I’d prefer, but I am okay with that because of its other good qualities. However, the matte finish could make makeup shift more than with other sun sticks. If you have dry skin, this might not be the best choice since the matte texture can worsen dryness. Sadly, it is not safe for fungal acne, which is such a let down.
