Why I apply SPF 50+ PA++++ every day: an essential K-Beauty routine
Share
Introduction
Today I'm talking about my essential skincare step: SPF 50+ PA++++ , which I apply every morning without fail. Since I started using it, my skin stays even, radiant, and protected, even on sunny days. This habit is directly inspired by Korean skincare routines, where SPF is considered as much a beauty ritual as a health one.

1. A Korean SPF culture instilled from childhood
In South Korea, the daily use of SPF 50 is taught from a very young age as a health and beauty necessity, integrated into routines from early childhood. For Koreans, protecting themselves from the sun is just as essential as brushing their teeth ([coveteur.com]) – an educational and cultural reflex.
2. SPF 50 explained: effectiveness and UV spectrum
-
SPF 50 blocks approximately 98% of UVB rays , compared to 97% for SPF 30, offering more reliable protection, especially with light application. .

A broad-spectrum SPF PA++++ also protects against UVA rays which are responsible for skin aging, pigment spots and an increased risk of skin cancer .
3. Why use it every single day without exception
-
Clinical trials (1,600 adults over 4.5 years) have shown a 40% reduction in skin carcinomas and a 50% reduction in melanomas thanks to daily application of sunscreen .

Regular use also slows down sun aging; the skin appears more supple, less wrinkled, and more even after several years of application .

4. Why I love Korean phrasing
The sunscreens used in Korea allow for ultra-light, non-greasy textures that are quickly absorbed, leave no white residue, and have natural finishes.
These formulas often combine moisturizing and soothing active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, aloe vera or fermented extracts, offering a dual care + protection function .
5. My personal testimony: why it matters so much to me
Every morning, I apply SPF 50 before my makeup routine or on its own. My skin stays supple, without redness or blemishes, even after several hours in the sun. The lightweight textures I've chosen don't pill and allow for easy touch-ups without a mask-like effect. This step has become an essential part of my routine, inspired by the Korean approach.
