Key ingredients

OCTINOXATE

Also called Ethylhexyl Methoxycinammate. The most commonly used chemical sunscreen is a clear, oil-soluble liquid that provides UVB protection (280-320nm). However, it does not protect against UVA rays, so it is advisable to use products with other sunscreens. Exposure to sunlight can reduce its effectiveness over time, losing 10% of its SPF protection ability in 35 minutes. Combining it with other sunscreen agents, such as Tinosorb S, can increase stability and provide broad-spectrum protection.

ENSULIZOLE

Also called Phenylbezimidazole sulfonic acid. This chemical sunscreen provides strong UVB protection (in the range 280-320nm). Unlike other sunscreen agents, it is water-soluble, making it ideal for creating light, oily skin compatible formulas. It is also photostable and can be used to enhance the stability of other UV filters in a formula, such as avobenzone. It is approved worldwide and can be used up to 4% in the US and up to 8% in the EU.

TINOSORB

Also called Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, one of the best sunscreen agents known today. This chemical oil-soluble sunscreen agent provides broad-spectrum protection across the UVB and UVA range (280-400 nm). Unlike older UV filters, it is highly photostable, deteriorating very little in the presence of UV light. It is also useful for stabilizing other, less stable sunscreen agents and has great safety profile. 

AMYLOXATE

Also called as Isoamyl-P-Methoxycinnamate. A chemical sunscreen ingredient, soluble in oil, protects against UVB radiation (290-320 nm) and some additionally in the UVA II (320-340nm) rang. It is a newer generation UV filter that is approved up to 10% in the EU.

TITANIUM DIOXIDE

It's one of the two members of the sunscreen group called physical sunscreens. Titanium dioxide is highly stable and gives bright UV-protection: it's very good in UVB and UVA II range, and less good at UVA I range. Regular sized Titanium Dioxide also has a great safety profile, it's non-irritating and is pretty much free from any health concerns.

ALOE ARBORESCENS

Aloe arborescens, also known as the krantz aloe, is a species of aloe plant that is native to southern Africa. Aloe arborescens contains a variety of beneficial compounds, such as polysaccharides, anthraquinones, and amino acids, that can have positive effects on the skin. These compounds are believed to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and moisturizing properties that can help to soothe and nourish the skin.

Doctor’s note
  • If you are overwhelmed with many skincare steps, use this sunscreen as your moisturizing step.

This is not medical advice; if you have any medical conditions, consult your doctor.

COSRX Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF50 PA+++ is a moisturising Korean sun cream with aloe for daily face protection. I suggest it for normal to dry skin that likes sunscreen to feel like a comfortable last skincare step rather than a dry, matte fluid.

It combines chemical UV filters, including Tinosorb S, with titanium dioxide. Aloe extract and glycerin support the moisturising feel. The formula contains fragrance and alcohol, so it is not my first choice for very reactive skin.

🔬 Does sunscreen really prevent skin aging?

903adults in the trial
4.5years of daily use
24%less skin aging

In a randomised trial in Australia, adults under 55 who used sunscreen every day showed 24% less skin aging after 4.5 years than those who used it only when they felt like it.1 It is one trial, done in a very sunny place, but it is large and long, which is rare in skincare research. The important word is daily: a texture you enjoy is what makes daily use realistic.

Questions about COSRX Aloe Soothing Sun Cream

Does it leave a white cast?

It contains some titanium dioxide, so a slight white cast is possible on deeper skin tones, depending on how much you apply.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

It contains fragrance, including fragrance allergens such as limonene and linalool, as well as alcohol. If your skin reacts easily, try it on a small area first, or choose a fragrance-free sunscreen.

How much should I apply?

About two finger lengths for face and neck. The protection on the label is only reached with a generous layer.
