CURE Kim Jeongmun Aloe Cure Cooling Sun Stick

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-09-21

What is this product?

A cooling sun stick built on aloe vera leaf juice as the first ingredient with four UV filters placed high in the list, positioned for soothing daily sun protection. Salicylic acid near the end of the list and a mandarin orange peel oil are the main watch items for reactive skin.

What makes it different?

Aloe vera leaf juice sits first and aloe leaf extracts appear at positions 14 and 15, which is unusual for a sun stick base. The filter system combines ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate, bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine, and ethylhexyl salicylate in the top region, a mix covering UVA and UVB. Salicylic acid sits at position 31 and a mandarin orange peel oil at 30, so very sensitive or pregnancy-care users have something to weigh. The page names a testing institution but does not print test conditions such as panel size or period.

What is in it?

The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.

This brand publishes its ingredient list in Korean only. Names below are the matching INCI names from the Korean Cosmetic Association ingredient dictionary, except 6 with no dictionary entry, left in Korean.

Key ingredient

Ingredients with no mark are ones we found nothing notable about, and when marks overlap on one ingredient we show the caution first.

We could not place these in the list above: 필리핀오렌지껍질오일, 살리실릭애씨드

says nothing1

  • Meet a sun stick that shows its transparent interior like a clear, bouncy aloe. The sun stick from Kim Jung-moon Aloe won't make your face white and pasty, nor will it easily break with a 'tok' sound. It coats the face with a smooth film to protect the skin from the sun's rays, and it is a special product that provides a cooling sensation immediately upon application. Use the thin tip of the stick, shaped like an aloe leaf, to meticulously apply it to curved areas such as the sides of the nose and between the eyebrows. It is easily removed with just the first cleanse, so it's great for daily use without any burden.
