Dongkook Pharmaceutical announced on July 22 that it has launched a new type of sunscreen, the "Madeca Sun Shield Pad," which is conveniently applied in pad form for the summer season.


The "Madeca Sun Shield Pad" can be used by wiping the skin, making it suitable for those who find traditional sticky sunscreens uncomfortable or for situations where sunscreen needs to be reapplied frequently outdoors.

This pad-type sunscreen adheres evenly along the skin's texture and can be applied thoroughly, even on curved areas such as around the eyes and nose. It effectively wipes off surface impurities like sweat, sebum, and fine dust, enabling more effective UV protection. It reduces the discomfort of residue left on the hands or stinging sensations in the eyes when using conventional cream or spray types. Since there is no need to touch the face directly, it allows for hygienic sun care.


Each pad is generously soaked with sunscreen liquid, making it suitable for a single application to broad areas such as the face, neck, and arms. The product comes in a zippered pouch for easy portability, allowing for convenient and frequent reapplication during outdoor activities, travel, or exercise.


The product contains Centella Asiatica extract and other "Cica" ingredients that help soothe and protect sensitive skin affected by UV rays and external heat. The addition of 10 types of hyaluronic acid provides deep moisture for skin that tends to dry out from sun exposure. It has also passed hypoallergenic testing on sensitive skin, so the whole family can use it with confidence.



A Dongkook Pharmaceutical representative stated, "The 'Madeca Sun Shield Pad' is a differentiated sun care product that provides UV protection, skin texture smoothing, and soothing care all in one pad. Since it can be used hygienically without getting on your hands, we expect it to be highly useful not only in summer, but also during various outdoor activities such as camping, golf, and hiking."
