Product details

Dr.G Green Mild Up Defense Mineral Sunscreen is a lightweight, reef-safe SPF 50 mineral sunscreen formulated for sensitive skin, delivering broad-spectrum UV protection with calming Centella Asiatica and hydrating panthenol.

This Korean-formulated mineral sunscreen combines physical UV filters with skin-supporting ingredients and a non-greasy finish. It’s designed for daily application on face and body when you want reliable sun coverage without heavy texture or irritation. The formula focuses on protecting the skin barrier while remaining suitable for reactive or easily irritated complexions.

How will this sunscreen feel on my skin during the day?

The texture is engineered to be light and fast-absorbing so it sits comfortably under makeup or alone for a minimal routine. You’ll notice a soft, non-oily finish that avoids the sticky residue common in some sunscreens. Because it uses mineral filters, initial application may require gentle blending to disappear evenly.

  • Lightweight, non-greasy mouthfeel for daily wear
  • Absorbs quickly and layers under cosmetics
  • Mineral formula that blends to a subtle finish

Is the formula safe for sensitive or reactive skin?

This product prioritizes mildness: key soothing agents like Centella Asiatica and panthenol help calm and hydrate, while peptides support barrier resilience. Dr.G screens ingredients with scientific data to minimize common irritants. Still, patch testing is wise for highly reactive skin types.

  • Contains Centella Asiatica extract and panthenol for soothing
  • Peptides included to support the skin barrier
  • Mineral UV filters reduce chemical-sunscreen sensitivities

Will this sunscreen protect me in and around water?

The formula is labeled reef-safe and developed to be ocean-friendly, allowing safer use during water activities when applied correctly. As with any sunscreen, reapply after swimming, toweling off, or prolonged sun exposure. The mineral filters provide broad-spectrum coverage for UVA and UVB protection.

  • Reef-safe mineral ingredients suitable for ocean use
  • SPF 50 broad-spectrum coverage against UVA and UVB
  • Reapplication recommended after water exposure or sweating

How should I apply this sunscreen for best results?

Apply generously to clean, dry skin at least 15 minutes before going outdoors and reapply every two hours or after swimming. Use enough to cover all exposed areas — a thin smear won’t reach the labeled SPF. For facial use, a nickel to quarter-sized amount is a common guideline depending on coverage.

  • Apply 15 minutes before sun exposure
  • Reapply every two hours or after swimming/sweating
  • Use a generous amount to achieve SPF 50 protection

Who is this for: Dr.G Green Mild Up Defense Mineral Sunscreen suits people seeking a gentle, high-SPF mineral sunscreen that won’t feel heavy or greasy. It’s a good fit for those with sensitive or reactive skin, fans of Korean skincare formulations, and anyone who prefers reef-safe products for beach or pool days. If you want daily sun protection that supports the skin barrier while layering easily under makeup, this is a practical option.
