Verdict Should you buy it?

Tinted hybrid built on titanium dioxide and avobenzone in a silicone-rich base with mica and iron oxides. Wears smoothly with a cosmetic finish, but added fragrance, ethanol high in the INCI, and rose oil restrict it from sensitive-skin use.

Pros
  • Titanium dioxide plus avobenzone for UVA/UVB
  • Tinted finish with mica and iron oxides
  • Silicone-rich base wears under makeup
  • Tocopherol and centella extract in the support cast
  • SPF 51 with PA++++ rating
Cons
  • Added fragrance and rose oil are allergen flags
  • Ethanol high in the INCI list
  • Avobenzone is the only UVA filter — no Tinosorb-class actives
  • Sorbitan sesquioleate can be comedogenic for some

Who it's for: Buyers who want a tinted daytime base with smooth makeup wear and accept fragrance; not for sensitive, fragrance-reactive, or alcohol-intolerant skin.

01 Score breakdown
UV protection How well the product blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 98
Filter modernity Penalises legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen filters. 65
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, known sensitisers. 45
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity, biodegradability of UV filters and surfactants. 100
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, comfort on skin. 72

03 At-a-glance facts
Protection
Filter type Mineral filters (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) sit on skin and reflect UV. Chemical filters absorb UV. Hybrid blends both.
Hybrid
Broad spectrum Protects across both UVA and UVB ranges. UVA causes aging and deeper damage; UVB causes burns.
Yes
Formulation & feel
Texture How the formula feels at application — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Cream
Finish How the formula looks on skin 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' differs — may contain masking fragrance. Botanical oils still scent.
No
Alcohol-free No drying short-chain alcohols (alcohol denat., SD alcohol, ethanol). Does not refer to fatty alcohols like cetyl or stearyl alcohol, which are emollients.
