How to use Korean sunscreen correctly – 4 professional tips for real protection
Sunscreen is the most important product in your skincare routine. But even the best Korean sunscreen only provides reliable protection if used correctly. Here are the four most important rules to help your SPF work to its full potential.
1. The right amount makes the difference
Many people don't apply enough sunscreen, risking sunburn or skin damage. As a rule of thumb, apply two finger-lengths of sunscreen to the face and neck. This amount is sufficient to protect the skin evenly and effectively.
2. SPF is the last skincare step
Korean skincare follows the principle of layering. Sunscreen should always be applied at the end of your routine—after cleanser, toner, serum, and moisturizer. This is the only way to ensure the protective layer remains stable on the skin.
3. Update regularly
UV filters degrade over time. Therefore, you should reapply your sunscreen every 2–3 hours—especially during strong sun exposure or in summer. Convenient for on the go:

Conclusion
Korean sunscreen is not only light, pleasant, and kind to the skin, but also extremely effective – when used correctly. Pay attention to the amount, always add SPF to the end of your routine, reapply regularly, and don't forget to protect yourself in everyday life.
