Enjoy the sun and protect your skin with these top Korean sunscreen products.&nbsp;

In the last year, the buzz around <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/10-step-korean-skincare-routine-kbeauty-vitamin-c-serum-korean-moisturizers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Korean skincare</a> and Korean sunblock has skyrocketed, making them viral sensations across the globe. Beauty lovers have been drawn in by the proven results of Korean beauty and skincare products, their cutting-edge innovations, and the fact that influencers and celebs have embraced these skincare rituals.
In particular, Korean sunblock has emerged as a standout product category within the skincare industry. People are finally understanding how crucial it is to shield their skin from the sun to avoid aging too fast and lower skin cancer risks. They want sunblocks that feel light, not sticky, and protect against all kinds of UV rays. Korean brands are nailing it with sunscreens that check all these boxes &ndash; they're high in SPF, feel great on the skin, and work with any skin type, even under makeup.
Dermatologist Alok Vij explained more to <a href="https://health.clevelandclinic.org/korean-skincare-routine" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Cleveland Clinic</a> on why Korean sunscreen is beating out U.S. products in every aspect.&nbsp;
 &ldquo;The FDA is notoriously slow when it comes to approving sunscreens,&rdquo; Dr. Vij said. &ldquo;In the U.S., we&rsquo;re still living on products that have were approved 20 to 30 years ago. And we haven&rsquo;t made a lot of progress in new approvals.&rdquo; Meanwhile, Asian countries are continually trying and producing new suncare products, including SPF++++.&nbsp;
L'OFFICIEL has rounded up some of the best and most efficient Korean sunsblocks for you to purchase this season.
