What the gurus are saying

This lightweight, no-white-cast sunscreen gets split reactions: some prize it for everyday office use and as a budget layering option, but others find the SPF 36 too low (K-beauty typically starts at SPF 50) and think the formula feels dated. The pleasant fragrance is fairly strong, something to keep in mind if you're sensitive to scents. For those spending significant time outdoors, reach for SPF 50 instead.

"This SPF 36 is a classic, super lightweight, and great for layering under makeup, with a texture that's relatively elegant for a daily wear product. There's no white cast, and I truly think it's a great entry point K beauty SPF for everyday use. If you're outdoors a lot and actively managing hyperpigmentation, I'd probably go higher than SPF 36, but it's good for office days and general protection overall. It's my pick for best budget entry, a solid daily SPF, just go higher if you're outdoors often."

"My least recommended from Innisfree is probably the Daily UV Defense SPF 36 Sunscreen. This is a product that in the past I've liked but not loved. It's SPF 36, which is pretty low SPF for K beauty usually. You know, SPF 50 is the standard. This is a little meh in the SPF protection. It's always used the older generation chemical filters, so nothing has been tweaked here. This is what the formula has always been. It does have some fragrance that is pleasant but fairly strong in my opinion, and I'm not a big fan of that. It's not as elegant in the texture. It's more elegant than maybe something you might get at the drugstore in the United States, but it's not as elegant as other K beauty sunscreens are. It's just kind of somewhere in the middle."

"This is the daily UV defense sunscreen from Innisfree. This one is a no white cast, glowy finish, and it's a chemical sunscreen with active ingredients including enzacamene, homosalate, and octisalate. Innisfree makes some really good sunscreens. They feel very good on the skin, very smooth, and just like the Ranovat, this one is available at Sephora as well."
