Editorial verdict

Innisfree Daily UV Defense Sunscreen SPF 36 PA\†\†\† is formulated as a lightweight daily sunscreen, designed to offer broad-spectrum protection. Its blend of chemical UV filters, including Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Homosalate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, and Octocrylene, effectively shields the skin from UVA and UVB rays. The inclusion of green tea extract and orchid extract suggests an antioxidant benefit, aiming to protect the skin from environmental stressors. The product has a light citrus scent from orange peel oil, which may be pleasant for some users but could be a concern for those with fragrance or essential oil sensitivities. Its lightweight texture makes it suitable for daily use as the final step in a morning skincare routine, providing a natural radiant finish without feeling heavy on the skin. This sunscreen is best for those seeking a comfortable, everyday protective layer that incorporates some botanical extracts, particularly individuals who do not have sensitivities to fragrance or essential oils.
