I’m Enamored With Beauty of Joseon—and It’s More Than Just Their Sunscreen

This article from Allure features a detailed review of several K-beauty products from the brand Beauty of Joseon. The review includes a personal account from Allure commerce editor Sarah Han and showcases the effectiveness and affordability of various skincare products, including:

1. Revive Eye Serum: Ginseng + Retinal – Priced at $17, it’s highlighted as a budget-friendly option among retinol eye creams. It’s noted for its affordability and endorsement by Allure Korea as a 2023 Best of Beauty editor’s pick.

2. Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics SPF 50 PA++++ – This sunscreen is praised for its lightweight, nourishing formula that offers high UV protection without a white cast. Sarah prefers the original Korean formula for its fluid consistency and moisturizing properties, which allows her to skip an additional moisturizer.

3. Glow Replenishing Rice Milk – A toner-essence hybrid that balances combo skin without causing makeup pilling. It is favored for its soothing and hydrating properties, beneficial for mature or sensitive skin.

4. Ground Rice and Honey Glow Mask – An affordable and gentle physical exfoliator that leaves the skin noticeably soft, aimed at those with combination or oily skin.

5. Radiance Cleansing Balm – A cleansing balm that effectively removes makeup and sunscreen without leaving a residue. Recognized for its gentle formula that doesn’t cause eye irritation.

Sarah also includes practical advice for using these products, such as application routines and compatibility with different skin types, all part of her continuous exploration and love for Korean beauty products.
