Reviews mention

  • Lightweight, elegant sunscreen textures
  • Gentle, non-irritating cleanser formulas
  • Makeup-friendly, tacky sunscreen finish
  • Hydrating, glow-enhancing essence water
  • Occasional white cast under flash
  • Sometimes oily, shiny sunscreen finish
  • Pilling risk with sun stick
  • Underwhelming, mild-performing serums

Beauty of Joseon earns strong reviews for gentle, elegant formulas that often perform—especially its Relief Sun, Aqua Sun, and Matte Sun Stick, which feel lightweight, layer well under makeup, and frequently avoid white cast while leaving a dewy-to-matte, comfortable finish. Reviews also flag inconsistencies: some sunscreens run oily or shiny on combo/oily skin, occasional white cast under flash or on some tones, potential pilling with the stick if skin isn’t prepped, and several serums and eye patches feeling underwhelming or irritating to sensitive eyes.

  • It was good, but like the birch juice one, really expensive for every day use. I prefer skin1004 or tocobo instead. Although I did see one reviewer who did her own test that Joseon and Birch protected better than Tocobo or skin1004.

  • The hype on social media is accurate. The sunscreen tube and stick are as perfect as possibly made. They didn't peel, leave a white cast, feel sticky, or heavy. I'm glad I decided to purchase and would highly recommend trying it.

  • The Ginseng and Retinol Eye Serum is gentle, absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a greasy feeling- clean. I've noticed a reduction in my crows feet around my eyes after using this nightly for a few months. The price is great considering how little you need and how much the pump has.

  • The Beauty of Joseon Revive Eye Serum with Ginseng + Retinal is one of the few eye creams that actually feels like it’s doing something 🌿. It hydrates and slightly brightens my under-eye area, and I’ve noticed less puffiness in the morning. It’s gentle enough for daily use, though if you’re sensitive to retinals, start slow to avoid irritation ✨.

  • This mask is my go-to when my skin feels irritated or stressed. It’s super calming, fits well on the face, and leaves my skin soft and soothed. Perfect for sensitive days when I need a gentle reset. 🌿🧖‍♀️

  • This sunscreen stick is so elegant—velvety texture, zero white cast, and a naturally matte finish that layers beautifully over skincare. But if your base isn’t prepped well, it can pill under foundation or concealer. Still, perfect for touch-ups on the go.

  • جربت واقي الشمس Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF50+ PA++++، وكان من أفضل التجارب بالنسبة لي. تركيبته خفيفة ومرطبة، ما بيسبب لمعة أو بيض تحت الميكاب. مناسب للبشرة الحساسة ومش بيعمل تهيّج أو انسداد للمسام. لكن لو بشرتك دهنية جدًا، ممكن تحسيه ثقيل شوية بعد فترة.

  • El tónico de ciruela con AHA+BHA y el sérum de salvado de arroz fueron de los primeros productos de K-beauty que usé. Los aplico en mi rutina nocturna y me ayudan a dejar la piel suave, luminosa y bien cuidada. Tienen un lugar especial en mi corazón porque fueron mi puerta de entrada al skincare coreano. 💛

  • The Beauty of Joseon sunscreen is fantastic! It’s super light and watery, so you barely feel it on your skin once applied. There’s no white cast left behind, and it’s completely scent-free, which is a big plus. It’s perfect for daily use and feels so comfortable on the skin—you can forget you’re even wearing sunscreen

  • I've heard great things about this K-Beauty brand, so I picked up the Light on Serum a few days ago. The formula has a lightweight, almost watery texture and is moisturizing. I haven't noticed any pilling or greasiness under makeup. The pump is also so convenient for ensuring I use the same amount each day.

  • LEAVES NO WHITE CAST!! Its amazing, i use it every single day and its so nice! Would 100% recommend. Worth the price. Amazing!!

  • It has a very pleasant consistency that makes it easy to use. Despite matting, it leaves the effect of healthy and nourished skin. Ends quickly.

  • SNAIL Mucin is a must-have in my beauty routine. I love this product and have seen a difference in my skin since starting K-beauty last year. Consistency is key.

  • One of my favorite K-Beauty brands!! I love their suncream, is so lightweight and it doesn't leave any white cast. Another product I really love is their dynasty cream, I use it at night routine ,it's a rich hydrating cream but feels lightweight because it's made of rice.

  • “Glow in a Bottle” literally!! The Beauty of Joseon Glow Deep Serum with rice and alpha arbutin is hands down one of my skincare favorites. From the first drop, it gave my dull skin an instant glow, Over time I’ve noticed how much it’s evened out my complexion and brought a brightness I didn’t think was possible. And let me just say—the Essence Water? Total game changer. It preps my skin perfectly, making everything else just sink in beautifully. If you’re looking for that effortless glow, this duo is the best kept secret.

  • My absolute favorite product from Beauty of Joseon is the Ginseng essence water!!! My skin loves it & absorbs it so well, I did have some trouble with glow serum, mostly because of the propolis ingredient. Since I didn't have any pimples, I felt like it was creating pimples to get rid of 😆 It did leave me with an amazing glow though, it just wasn't the right serum for me.

  • I’ve been using Beauty of Joseon products for over a year now — the Rice Mask, the Propolis Serum, and their famous sunscreen are all part of my daily routine. My skin is super sensitive, and the Propolis Serum especially has been a game changer. It instantly calms any redness, makes my skin smoother and clearer, and leaves it feeling healthy and balanced. I’m genuinely obsessed with this brand — everything they make feels gentle yet effective! Eu uso os produtos da Beauty of Joseon há mais de um ano — a máscara de arroz, o sérum de própolis e o protetor solar já fazem parte da minha rotina diária. Minha pele é super sensível e o sérum de própolis é simplesmente transformador. Ele acalma instantaneamente a vermelhidão, deixa a pele mais lisa, clara e equilibrada. Sou completamente apaixonada pela marca — tudo o que eles fazem é delicado e eficaz ao mesmo tempo! 💛

  • It's so refreshing

  • I used a product from Beauty of Joseon and it was decent overall. The texture felt nice and it absorbed well, but I didn’t notice any major changes in my skin. Not bad, just not super impressive either.
