Verdict Should you buy it?

Hybrid gel built on zinc oxide and a modern organic filter set (Mexoryl XL, Uvinul T 150, Uvinul A Plus, Tinosorb S) with no EDC-flagged actives. SPF 51 PA++++ with a light feel, but ethanol is the third ingredient and fragrance is present.

Pros
  • Zinc oxide plus four modern organic filters
  • No EDC-flagged UV actives
  • Gel texture wears light
  • Glycyrrhiza, rice ferment, and green tea in the soothing layer
  • SPF 51 with PA++++ rating
Cons
  • Ethanol high in the INCI list
  • Added fragrance is an allergen flag
  • Short hydrator list — minimal cushion for dry skin

Who it's for: Buyers who want high SPF with a modern non-EDC filter system in a light gel and tolerate alcohol; not for sensitive, dry, or fragrance-reactive skin.

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.
Gel
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.
No
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.
