Our verdict

Sunscreen is the most important anti-aging step, and both of these are cult, affordable, no-cast Korean SPFs, so you cannot really go wrong. Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun is the internet's darling: a rice-and-probiotics SPF50+ with a beautiful lightweight, slightly dewy finish and a famously low price, and one of the most reviewed sunscreens anywhere. Medicube's sunscreen brings its own no-cast, glow-friendly finish with a skincare-forward angle (collagen or PDRN depending on the version). Both wear well under makeup. If you want the proven, ultra-affordable cult pick, Beauty of Joseon. If you want Medicube's skincare-led finish and already like the brand, its sunscreen delivers. Whichever you pick, apply a generous, even layer daily.
