Pa RatingNot clearly labeled; inferred PA++ at SPF 30
Filter TypeChemical (organic filters)

Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Daily Sun Gel is a chemical-filter SPF 30 sunscreen formulated with 10 types of hyaluronic acid, positioning itself as a hydrating, lightweight daily option in the no-white-cast K-beauty segment. The gel finish delivers a dewy, non-greasy wear and blends invisibly across skin tones without visible residue. It is fragrance-free and marketed for sensitive skin, making it accessible to those with irritation concerns. However, at SPF 30 (not the SPF 50+ standard of category leaders like Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun or Round Lab Birch Juice), it sits below the trend benchmark for broad-spectrum facial protection. Isntree is a recognized K-beauty indie brand with a growing reputation for hydration-focused formulas. This sunscreen appeals to users prioritizing moisture and comfort over maximum UV strength, or as a daily reapply companion rather than sole sun defense.
