[Asia Economy Reporter Yujin Cho] In April, when the ultraviolet (UV) index rises sharply, products that protect the skin from extensive damage caused by intense spring sunlight UV rays and infrared rays accompanied by fine dust and pollen are trending. Let's meet the products that protect our skin exposed to spring sunlight heat aging.


Nature Republic's recently launched 'California Aloe Matte Sunblock' blocks not only UV rays but also infrared rays simultaneously, protecting the skin from the sun's heat and light.


It applies the highest UV protection rating, PA++++. It also blocks infrared rays that penetrate deep into the skin and accelerate aging. It improves the whitening effect and application feel, which are drawbacks of existing physical sunscreens, helping to express natural skin and finishes matte without stickiness.


Additionally, it contains California aloe ingredients that provide rich moisture and soothe skin sensitized by UV rays. With pigment micro-dispersion technology applied, small and uniform particles spread smoothly on the skin.

The Face Shop's Natural Sun Eco line segments products considering not only the user's skin type but also the range of activities and the environment exposed to UV rays. The package design adds simplicity by using point colors that intuitively show the unique features of each product.


The representative sunscreen of the Natural Sun Eco line, ‘Natural Sun Eco Super Perfect Sun Cream EX,’ is an ‘urban sun care’ product that cares for skin concerns caused by external environments frequently encountered in city daily life, such as fine dust and blue light from electronic devices.


It has UV protection functionality of SPF50+ PA++++, along with PM2.5 and smaller ultrafine dust adsorption prevention and blue light blocking functions. With a light tone-up function, it naturally conceals skin imperfections, making it useful when you want to skip makeup, such as when wearing a mask.


‘Natural Sun Eco Super Active Sun Cream’ is optimized for various activities such as outdoor exercise, camping, festivals, and water sports. It features SPF50+ PA++++ UV protection, waterproof and activity sweat-proof functions, so it does not easily wash off with sweat or water during activities, and the sunscreen dissolved in sweat causes less irritation if it gets into the eyes.

In spring, when the temperature difference between day and night is large, the body's immunity decreases, making it vulnerable to external viruses. To reduce the skin's exposure to external environments, it is necessary to build basic physical strength like the body. The balance of the skin microbiome is key to maintaining skin health.


Lanc?me's ‘New Advanced G?nifique’ was born through microbiome science based on the existing bestseller G?nifique Essence. After 15 years of microbiome research and analysis, it contains seven prebiotics and probiotics ingredients that supply and activate beneficial bacteria to help maintain healthy and resilient skin, building the skin's basic strength.


One pump of the dropper loads a single-use dose containing 30 million extracts of seven pre- and probiotics, enabling efficient use. It applies lightly and refreshingly as if veiling the skin, absorbs pleasantly, and is suitable for use morning and night regardless of the season.


For skin tired from long outdoor activities and mask-wearing, a home care mask pack full of nutrients is recommended.


Lanc?me’s ‘G?nifique Sensitive Hydrogel Dual Melting Mask’ contains the nutrition of one bottle of G?nifique Double Drop Ampoule in a single mask sheet. With antioxidant ampoule and probiotic ingredients, it helps provide deep moisture and strengthen the skin barrier. In addition to the two probiotic extracts of G?nifique Probiotic Essence, the synergy effect of ‘Lactobacillus ferment’ soothes skin sensitized by spring sunlight.



Especially, the ‘G?nifique Sensitive Hydrogel Dual Melting Mask’ is a product where the ampoule is first evenly applied to the face, then the hydrogel mask coated with nutrients is applied on top. The dual action of the antioxidant ampoule and hydrogel mask provides an upgraded home care treatment that makes the skin clear and elastic.
