Key Features and Ingredients

  • Dual active ingredients: tranexamic acid & dipotassium glycyrrhizinate
    • A high concentration of the whitening active ingredient "tranexamic acid" suppresses melanin production to help prevent dark spots and freckles.
    • Combined with the anti-inflammatory active ingredient "dipotassium glycyrrhizinate," it provides strong protection against UV-induced inflammation and skin irritation.
  • Two options: "zinc oxide-free" and "with zinc oxide"
    • Medicated UV Gel Milk: Zinc oxide-free (uses fine-particle titanium dioxide). Suitable for sensitive skin prone to clogged pores or dryness caused by sebum absorption.
    • Medicated UV Milk: Contains zinc oxide. Offers a strong protective film and "UV water resistance ★★," making it resistant to sweat and water.
  • Glycerin-free & five-free formula
    • Free of fragrance, colorants, mineral oil, parabens, and ethanol, plus a glycerin-free formula designed with pore- and acne-conscious users in mind.
  • Hybrid formula of UV absorbers and UV scatterers
    • By blending small amounts of multiple UV absorbers into an oil base, it achieves SPF50+ and PA++++ while reducing the burden on the skin.
    • It avoids the white cast and squeaky feel typical of non-chemical sunscreens, delivering a comfortable feel on the skin.
