Beauty of Joseon Dayscreen Tinted Sun Cream SPF50+ PA+++

Sells for ₩20,000 (40ml, with a 10ml gift tube in one bundle option) on Olive Young Korea, 28% off at ₩14,400, checked 2026-09-04. Beauty of Joseon's own Korean site confirms SPF50+ PA+++. Unlike Beauty of Joseon's chemical-filter Relief Sun lines, this is a purely mineral formula — Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide are its only two UV filters, both on the FDA's OTC sunscreen monograph, per Olive Young Korea's ingredient disclosure. Beauty of Joseon's own official US site sells what appears to be the identical formula (matching INCI order) as "Tinted Mineral Dayscreen SPF 30" ($20.00, 40ml) — but rated SPF 30 rather than Korea's SPF50+, a real labeled-protection gap between the two versions despite the matching ingredient list.

Specifications

• Volume: 40ml
• Form: cream (tinted)
• Dictionary-listed actives: Adenosine: rank 31 of 34
• Vegan certified: Not verified
• Contains petrolatum: No
• Korea launch: unknown
• Renewal history: None recorded
• Korea vs export: Sold as a separate product/SKU in export markets — see product page. Same declared ingredient list and order in both versions: Olive Young Korea's mandatory disclosure and Beauty of Joseon's official US product page ("Tinted Mineral Dayscreen SPF 30," beautyofjoseon.com) both list Water, Zinc Oxide, Dimethicone, Methyl Trimethicone, Titanium Dioxide... in the same order, with Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide as the only two UV filters in each — both already on the FDA's OTC monograph, so this isn't a non-FDA-filter swap like most other Korea/export gaps on this site. What does differ is the labeled protection level: the Korea version (Olive Young, beautyofjoseon.co.kr) is rated SPF50+ PA+++, while the identical-looking export version sold on beautyofjoseon.com and YesStyle (as "Tinted Mineral Dayscreen," 15 shades) is rated only SPF 30 (PA+++ per YesStyle; the US site does not print a PA figure). Since a published INCI list doesn't disclose ingredient concentrations, it can't be confirmed from public disclosures alone whether this reflects a genuinely lower active-ingredient concentration in the export version or a difference in SPF-testing/labeling standard between Korean MFDS and US practice — only the labeled-protection gap itself is confirmed, checked 2026-09-04.

Is the Korean version of Beauty of Joseon's Dayscreen Tinted Sun Cream different from the export version?

The declared ingredient list matches — both versions list Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide as the only UV filters, in the same disclosure order. But the labeled protection differs: Korea's version is rated SPF50+ PA+++, while the export version sold on Beauty of Joseon's own US site and YesStyle as "Tinted Mineral Dayscreen" is rated only SPF 30. Since ingredient lists don't disclose concentrations, it isn't possible to confirm from public data whether this comes from a lower active-ingredient concentration abroad or a different SPF-testing standard — only the labeled gap itself is confirmed, checked 2026-09-04.

Does this use chemical or mineral UV filters?

Mineral only — Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide are the sole UV filters declared in Olive Young Korea's ingredient disclosure, with no organic (chemical) filters, unlike some of Beauty of Joseon's other sunscreens (checked 2026-09-04).
