What the gurus are saying

This tinted sunscreen delivers both protection and coverage, though the tackiness and need for powder to set it are real drawbacks. Robert Welsh praises the formula and shade range as thoughtfully suited to a tint, while No BS Beauty finds it works best layered over a chemical sunscreen rather than worn alone on very sunny days, and warns that the silicone content may pill over silicone-heavy skincare. The ceramides and iron oxides earn points for those with melasma, and there's no fragrance.

"This new Beauty of Joseon Dayscreen tinted sunscreen has about 17% zinc oxide with a decent range of tints, though nowhere near as many shades as an actual foundation. The shade 23N is a pretty decent match for my skin, maybe one shade lighter would be ideal, but it's close. Applying it with just my fingertips looks a little cakey up close, and I don't think I'm applying it liberally enough to actually be getting the full SPF 30, so I wouldn't rely on this alone for full sun protection on a very hot sunny day, maybe on a cloudy winter day. I think I'd get better results applying it with a beauty blender over my regular chemical sunscreen. [...] It's very tacky and sticky, which I don't love, and I had to set it with powder, though even after that it still felt a bit tacky and it seemed to emphasize my pores a little [...] around my nose. On the plus side there's no fragrance, and [...] it has ceramides, vitamin E, lactobacillus rice ferment, and iron oxides, which can be good if you have melasma. It also has a lot of silicone, so I have a feeling it might cause pilling if you use it over a silicone-heavy moisturizer or serum. Overall it feels okay, but that tackiness is still there so I understand why some people didn't like it."

"A skin tint sunscreen and moisturizer all in one, delivering hydration, tone correction, and SPF 30 protection in 15 natural shades. I think I need this, I love their tinted sunscreen. Their other sunscreen is SPF 50, this one is SPF 30, it's not a BB cream with SPF, it's an SPF with a tint to it, so it's an effective sunscreen. I love these, I love their formula, I love their skincare in general, I think they are stunning. The shade range looks minimal, but with a skin tint you don't really need the full range because it's a tint, it shouldn't be such heavy coverage that going a shade lighter or darker makes a crazy difference. I'll be really excited to try this. I'm putting it at number three."
