03 The facts, at a glance
Protection
Filter type Mineral filters (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) sit on skin and reflect UV. Chemical filters absorb UV. Hybrid runs both.
Mineral
Broad spectrum Covers both UVA and UVB. UVA drives aging and deeper damage; UVB gives you burns.
Yes
Formulation & feel
Texture How it feels going on — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Powder
Finish How it looks once dry: matte, natural, dewy, or glowy.
Natural
Tinted Adds sheer pigment (iron oxides) that masks the white cast common to mineral filters and gives a skin-tone finish.
Yes
Fragrance-free No synthetic perfume added. Not FDA-defined in the US; the EU requires 'Parfum' + the 26 named allergens on the label. 'Unscented' is different — it can hide masking fragrance. Botanical oils still scent.
Yes
Alcohol-free No drying short-chain alcohols (alcohol denat., SD alcohol, ethanol). Doesn't mean fatty alcohols like cetyl or stearyl — those are emollients.
Yes
Verdict Is it worth it?

A tinted mineral touch-up powder pairing zinc oxide and titanium dioxide with ceramide NP and three hyaluronate forms. Brush format suits over-makeup reapplication, though powder layers reach labeled SPF only at consistent, generous application.

  • Mineral filters with iron oxide tint blend into skin
  • Includes ceramide NP and three hyaluronic acid forms
  • Brush format suits midday top-ups over makeup

  • Single 3g pan goes quickly with frequent reapplication
  • Chlorphenesin preservative can sensitize some users

Who it's for: Makeup-wearers wanting a portable mineral touch-up powder over a base sunscreen for midday reapplication.
