“I use the clearing solution when I notice new breakouts or redness, and with a small (but relatively generous) pump I can see a difference within the day of application. I genuinely feel the my skin relax at the target spot after slathering it on. I haven’t had great success yet with acne scars, but that’s a more gradual change. I love how compact the tube is! It’s like a chic ointment. I also really appreciate that it blends in easily, as the yellow hue is a little daunting at first glance.” \u2014Lex Goldstein, social media coordinator<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\u201cIt’s one of those rare overnight acne treatments that actually works. I had a red, medium-size zit on my cheek, and 12 hours later, the redness and swelling subsided. It was like 90% gone. It’s that K-beauty magic.\u201d \u2014Monica Perry, senior manager of analytics and audience development<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Innisfree Daily UV Defense Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 45<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Why it\u2019s worth it:<\/strong> Even in winter, daily sunscreen is a must\u2014and this mineral formula makes it easy to stick to the habit. Innisfree\u2019s Daily UV Defense Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 45 shields skin from UV rays without leaving that heavy, chalky feel behind. It glides on like skin care, thanks to hydrating hyaluronic acid and squalene and soothing Centella asiatica<\/em> (noticing a trend here?), leaving a subtle, healthy glow. And, it has a barely-there green tint, which helps counteract redness while remaining invisible on the skin, so you get protection, a more even skin tone, and a naturally radiant finish in minutes.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cMy biggest issue with mineral sunscreens is how they can sometimes interfere with my makeup. I was immediately drawn to this formula, not just because as someone with mild rosacea, I love anything that neutralizes redness, but also because when it dries down, it doesn\u2019t leave a greasy film or chalky residue, meaning it doesn\u2019t get in the way or react funny with anything you layer on top of it.” \u2014Sophia Panych, content director<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
