Troiareuke Seoul Ectoin Tone-up Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++

Troiareuke's Seoul Ectoin Tone-up Sun Serum (50ml, SPF50+/PA++++ per the brand's own packaging photography) sells on Olive Young Korea for 36,500 KRW list / 31,000 KRW sale (15% off), 1,010 reviews, rated 5.0, checked 2026-09-07. Missed by this project's original "크림" name-filter because of its "선세럼" (sun serum) name, but its own product photos show a thick, pigmented, dollop-holding-shape swatch typical of a tone-up cream — not a thin, runny liquid meant to layer under a separate sunscreen — and usage instructions apply it directly to sun-exposed skin as the finishing step. Uses a mixed (hybrid) UV filter system — one mineral filter (Titanium Dioxide) plus three organic filters — per Olive Young Korea's own mandatory ingredient disclosure; the same filter combination appears in several other tone-up sunscreens already catalogued in this project. Sold internationally through resellers (e.g. ecoshop-usa.com, at around US$59.59 sale / US$88.88 list) under a similar "TROIAREUKE Seoul Ectoin Tone-Up Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++" name, but no reseller publishes a full ingredient list for comparison against Olive Young Korea's own mandatory disclosure, so a formula match could not be confirmed either way, checked 2026-09-07.

Specifications

Is it OK for sensitive skin?

Declared facts only, not a suitability verdict: fragrance is declared; no labeled fragrance allergens declared; no denatured alcohol listed. No irritation-related fact here implies suitability for any skin type.

How much of the key actives does it contain?

Niacinamide: rank 9 of 51; Ectoin (named in the product title): rank 26 of 51; Adenosine: rank 29 of 51.

Can I buy it outside Korea?

No international-shipping channel verified in our sources (checked 2026-09-10); Sold in Korea only: Olive Young Korea; Shipping scope unverified: Troiareuke official store (troiareuke.co.kr), ecoshop-usa.com (reseller); Global price: US$59.59 sale / US$88.88 list (ecoshop-usa.com reseller).

Is the Korean version different from the export version?

Not confirmed either way. A US reseller (ecoshop-usa.com) lists this exact product under a matching name, but does not publish a full ingredient list, so it could not be compared against Olive Young Korea's own mandatory disclosure. Treated as unresearched rather than guessed, checked 2026-09-07.

Is this really a cream, or a thin liquid serum meant to layer under a separate sunscreen?

Despite the "sun serum" name, the brand's own product photography shows a thick, pigmented dollop that holds its shape rather than running flat — a texture typical of a tone-up cream, not a thin liquid. Olive Young Korea's mandatory disclosure describes usage as applying it directly to sun-exposed areas, not as a layering step before a separate sunscreen, checked 2026-09-07.

What's the ratio of mineral to organic (chemical) UV filters?

Olive Young Korea's mandatory disclosure lists one mineral filter (Titanium Dioxide) alongside three organic filters (Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Ethylhexyl Triazone, Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone); no exact ratio is disclosed on the label, checked 2026-09-07.
