I'm a bit late to the game, but I just saw Olive Young’s email about halting US shipping because they're opening a domestic warehouse. It’s a total bummer, Korean sunscreens are my absolute holy grail and I haven’t looked back since I started using them.
I have acne-prone, combination skin and I’m currently using Tretinoin and Dapsone gel, so finding the right formula is crucial. Right now, I’m using the Beauty of Joseon Aqua-fresh, and I frequently rotate through (or stock up on):
• House of Hur Weightless Sun Fluid
• FROMRIER EGF Cica Water Sun Ampoule
• SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum
I’ve been considering the House of Hur (Glowy) version, but I’m worried it might leave a white cast on my medium-tan skin.
Two questions. What are some sunscreen recommendations you might have outside these or your routine. I ask this because of all these are beautiful but sometimes I feel like it can look a little heavy before makeup. Has anyone tried the American versions of these sunscreens? Also, is it worth stocking up now from Olive young? I know YesStyle and Stylevana are options, but the delivery delays are so unpredictable that I usually have to 'order and forget it,' which isn't ideal for essentials!
