Review: Etude House Sunscreen Comparison
I have tested three of Etude House sunscreens this past summer and I’m here with reviews.
Etude House Soon Jung Mild Defense Sun Cream SPF 49 P++
Let me begin
by saying that I had very high expectations for this one but it did not deliver
at all. It is a physical sunscreen that targets people with sensitive skin and is
formulated with a minimum of ingredients.
I have dry
skin so imagine the disappointment when it left my skin drier then it was
before application. Besides the texture was of a liquid cream but very
difficult to spread and apply to the face. The white cast on this product is no
joke so I will not recommend unless it’s used as a tone up cream or a primer.
I ended up
using it on my hands and neck or when my skin was not cooperating and needed a
much gentler sunscreen.
Etude House Sunprise Leports Water Proof SPF 50+ PA++++
Another
physical sunscreen but without the horrible white cast. Out of the three, this
one is my favorite. This product is for people who work out a lot or spend way
too much time on the sun.
The texture
is very liquidy, which makes it easier to apply but does not last very long.
The bottle was interesting because you have to shake it, before using it, for
the product to blend.
The fragrance is there so be careful if you’re sensitive. It does contain lots of alcohol so be advised.

I liked
using this particular sunscreen, but I will not buy it again.
Etude House Sunprise Natural Corrector Light SPF 50+ PA++++
This is where
it all went wrong, I made the purchase thinking that the "light" in
the packaging meant light in terms of texture or the feeling on the skin. It
turned out that they meant light as in skin tones. My bad.
The texture
is thick and a bit hard to spread if you apply a lot. The product itself is
pink hence the corrector part.
It has a
floral scent, so check the ingredients carefully if you are sensitive.
This product
is better used as a make-up base rather than a sunscreen. It's brightening but
with a horrible white cast. It could work, though, for people with fair skin
tones.
I've only
used it twice as it's a bit dry for my skin.
