Product Description:
The ROUND LAB Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream is one of the most celebrated and widely repurchased Korean sunscreens in the European K-beauty market — a 2022 Hall of Fame award winner in the sunscreen category with a 4.59 star rating from nearly 25,000 verified reviews, beloved across all skin types for its rare ability to deliver powerful broad-spectrum sun protection without any white cast, heaviness, or the dreaded greasy after-feel that makes many sunscreens uncomfortable to wear daily. At the heart of this formula are four next-generation organic UV filters — Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate (Uvinul A Plus), Ethylhexyl Triazone (Uvinul T 150), Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol (Tinosorb M), and Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone (Iscotrizinol) — delivering broad-spectrum coverage against the full range of UVA and UVB wavelengths at SPF50+ PA++++ level. Beyond its sun protection credentials, this cream functions as a genuinely effective daily moisturiser, thanks to 1,425ppm of Betula Platyphylla Japonica (birch) juice — naturally rich in amino acids, minerals, and hyaluronic acid, working to deeply hydrate the skin and form a moisture-retention barrier for a consistently dewy, supple complexion. The formula is free from alcohol and artificial fragrance, making it suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin. This 3-bottle set offers an outstanding value for those who use this sunscreen as a daily staple — whether applied solo as a morning moisturiser-and-SPF-in-one or layered as the final step over a skincare routine before makeup.
Key Features:
The four next-generation organic UV filters — Uvinul A Plus, Tinosorb M, Iscotrizinol, and Uvinul T 150 — provide broad-spectrum protection against the longest-wavelength UVA and UVB rays, making this one of the most comprehensively protective Korean sunscreens available at this price point. The formula leaves absolutely no white cast — a direct result of its all-organic (chemical) UV filter system — and absorbs quickly into the skin to leave a smooth, naturally dewy finish that is comfortable enough to wear alone or under makeup. Birch juice and hyaluronic acid keep the skin dewy and supple throughout the day, while the formula applies naturally without any white cast, making it suitable as a makeup base as well. Dual hyaluronic acid — sodium hyaluronate and hyaluronic acid — delivers hydration at different surface depths for a plump, comfortable skin feel that lasts all day. Niacinamide adds a brightening, pore-minimising dimension that makes this sunscreen genuinely skin-improving with regular use. Allantoin and dipotassium glycyrrhizate support a visibly balanced, comfortable complexion. Glyceryl glucoside provides an additional moisture-retention dimension. Portulaca oleracea extract and artemisia annua extract contribute calming botanical properties that make this formula especially comfortable for reactive or easily unsettled skin. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and tocopherol provide antioxidant support. Adenosine supports the appearance of a firm, smooth skin surface. The lightweight, lotion-like texture spreads effortlessly across the face, absorbs within seconds, and leaves no tackiness or residue — making it easy to layer under any makeup or tinted product.
How to Use:
Apply the sun cream as the very last step of your morning skincare routine, after all other skincare products have been fully absorbed. Squeeze an appropriate amount — approximately half a teaspoon for the full face and neck — onto the fingertips or directly onto the back of the hand. Spread evenly across the face and neck using smooth, outward strokes, then pat gently with the fingertips to ensure full, even coverage including around the nose, hairline, and jawline. Allow to absorb for 30 seconds before applying any makeup or tinted product. For optimal sun protection, apply at least 15 to 30 minutes before sun exposure and reapply every 2 hours when outdoors. Can also be used as a standalone morning moisturiser on days when a lighter skincare routine is preferred. Suitable for daily use on all skin types.
