Scinic UV Expert Sun Essence Tone-Up+Repair SPF50+ PA+++

From UV Defense to Anti-Aging: Two Sun Essences from UV Experts

SCINIC UV Expert Sun Essence is a triple-functional SPF50+ PA++++ formula that offers UV protection, brightening, and wrinkle improvement. Available in two types—Tone-Up and Repair—so you can choose based on your skin concerns. The Tone-Up Essence features a pink-beige tint designed to enhance skin luminosity and radiance, while the Repair Essence focuses on strengthening a compromised skin barrier. Both deliver a watery, essence-like texture that absorbs quickly and finishes fresh, never sticky.

Clinically Proven to Reduce Photoaging

In a human application test conducted after two weeks of use, both formulas showed measurable improvements in skin brightness, elasticity, and transepidermal water loss. The Repair Essence improved skin brightness by 29.01% and elasticity by 10.10%, while the Tone-Up Essence delivered 31.77% improvement in brightness and 10.76% in elasticity. Both were also tested and confirmed to block blue light and reduce skin temperature caused by infrared exposure. Each formula contains niacinamide (a brightening functional ingredient) and adenosine (a wrinkle-improving functional ingredient).

Gentle Formulation Suitable for Sensitive Skin

Both products have completed primary irritation testing on sensitive skin and in-vitro eye irritation testing. The Repair Essence features an easy-wash design that rinses off with a single cleanse, minimizing irritation during removal. Ideal for anyone concerned about UV-induced skin aging or those with sensitive, reactive skin. Choose the Tone-Up Essence if you want a pink-toned radiance boost, or the Repair Essence if barrier care is your priority.

Use after your skincare routine

Apply 15–20 minutes before sun exposure, after finishing your serum and moisturizer. The tone-evening formula doubles as a makeup base, so it works beautifully under foundation. The repair formula is ideal as a daily sunscreen for sensitized skin.

How much to use and how to apply

Dispense about the size of a 500-won coin for the entire face. Dot it onto your forehead, both cheeks, nose, and chin, then gently blend outward from the center using your fingertips. It absorbs like a hydrating essence, leaving skin dewy and comfortable. Don't forget sun-exposed areas like your neck and behind your ears.

Which formula to choose

• Tone-Evening Sun Essence: Best for dull complexion or when you want subtle color correction before makeup. The pink-beige tone enhances skin luminosity and radiance.
• Repair Sun Essence: Ideal for skin that feels sensitized by external stressors or when your skin barrier needs support. It applies clear with no tint, leaving a fresh, lightweight finish.

Removal and reapplication

Both formulas rinse off easily with a single cleanse—no need for double cleansing. If you're spending extended time outdoors or sweating, reapply every 2–3 hours to maintain sun protection.
