Summer is here, and it's here to stay - time to share my Korean sunscreen recommendations for summer 2022 in today's The K-Beauty Podcast episode! Since we are about to go through a massive heat wave here in Germany, I instantly felt drawn to talking about "summery" skincare topics for the new K-Beauty Podcast episode.

Because this was a very unscripted recording, I got a bit off topic in the beginning, sharing how I felt after both covid vaccine doses...
