Product details
Cooling hydration
A watery gel sunscreen that cools and hydrates like a moisture cream, with SPF50+ PA++++ protection.
Missha’s Aqua Sun is the hydrating, cooling member of the All-Around Safe Block family. Its semi-transparent gel is built on a moisture essence with hyaluronic acid and beta-glucan, and Missha’s ice-capsulation system gives a cool feel the moment it goes on, so it can double as a light moisturizer on oily-but-dehydrated skin.

How to use
The last step of your morning routine
- 1
Prep
Finish your skincare first. On oily skin, Aqua Sun can stand in for your moisturizer.
- 2
Squeeze
Squeeze out an appropriate amount of the gel.
- 3
Apply
Spread it over areas exposed to the sun, such as the face, neck, arms and legs.
- 4
Tap
Tap gently to help it absorb. Reapply through the day, especially after sweating or towel-drying.
Cool, fresh, protected skin
For hot days, oily-but-thirsty skin and anyone who wants their sunscreen to feel like a drink of water.
Good to know
- Made for oily, dehydrated skin that wants a light, cooling sunscreen, per Missha.
- Not labelled water-resistant. For swimming or heavy sweat, Missha’s Waterproof Sun Milk is the sturdier pick.
- Uses chemical UV filters only. If they sting your eyes or sensitive skin, patch test first.
- Contains fragrance, the last ingredient on the list.
- Skin irritation test completed, per Missha. 50 mL tube; it may not look full, which is normal for this formula.
