1. Refer to Korean sun protection combined with multi-step skin care
Asian skin is very susceptible to sunburn, so you must always take care of and protect your delicate skin, even during your daily skin care and makeup steps.

2. Pay attention when using sunscreen containing mineral particles
It should be emphasized again that mineral sunscreens both protect against the sun and provide nutrients to the skin, which is very good.

A simple way to overcome this is to not apply sunscreen in circular motions.
3. Choose a sunscreen substance (structure) suitable for your skin type.
Powder sunscreen (commonly known as sunscreen powder) helps add a layer of sun protection to makeup skin as well as helps absorb oil to keep skin dry.

Besides, powder sunscreen is also an effective tool that helps you easily reapply sunscreen without smudging your makeup (Similarly, some colorless spray sunscreens also have this ability).
4. Limit exposure to mid-day sunlight
If you intend to sunbathe, consider the time when the sunlight is gentle – early morning is ideal (still provides vitamin D directly to the body and the temperature does not burn the skin).

5. Sunscreen can be stored in the refrigerator
Because extreme heat can deactivate sunscreen ingredients.

6. Don’t forget to `sunscreen your eyes` and the skin around your eyes
Many people who have been surfing for many years are suffering from pain due to eyeball damage and deep wrinkles in the corners of their eyes.

8. Reapply sunscreen voluntarily after a certain period of time
9. Pay attention to new exposed skin areas (back, neck, ears…)

10. Hair also wants to be protected from the sun
If you leave your hair exposed to the sun to be attacked by UV rays, your hair will soon be weak, dry, brittle, aging and fibrous.
11. Is European or Asian sun protection better?
There is no better, only more suitable.
