PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Aqua-Fresh: Rice + B5 is the upgraded, ultra-lightweight version of the iconic Relief Sun — designed for those who love the feel of the classic sunscreen but prefer a lighter, more watery texture with intensive hydration. The new formula combines SPF50+ PA++++ broad-spectrum chemical protection with 30% Rice Seed Water and Panthenol (Vitamin B5) — a unique combination that nourishes, soothes, and strengthens the skin barrier while providing sun protection.
A characteristic of the formula is its rich composition of next-generation UV filters — Ethylhexyl Triazone, Drometrizole Trisiloxane, Terephthalylidene Dicamphor Sulfonic Acid (Ecamsule), Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate (DHHB) and Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine (Tinosorb S) — most of which are not approved in the USA but are available in Europe and Asia, offering superior photostable UVA & UVB coverage.
The formula is further enriched with Ceramide NP, Phytosphingosine, Beta-Glucan, Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopherol, Ferulic Acid and Rice Oligopeptide-1 — ingredients that transform this sunscreen into a complete skincare step. No white cast, no sticky residue, dewy finish. Clinically proven to be non-comedogenic and suitable for sensitive skin.

TEXTURE & USER EXPERIENCE
Its texture is a fluid lotion — watery, refreshing and light, significantly more lightweight than the classic Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics. Spreads easily and evenly, without white traces upon application. It takes a little time for complete absorption — 1-2 minutes — but the result is worth it: dewy, fresh, radiant skin without a heavy feel. Ideal as the last step of a morning routine and as a makeup base. Fragrance-free — suitable for the most sensitive skin types.
