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.
Cream
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.
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' 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 mineral SPF 51 PA++++ built on titanium dioxide and zinc oxide with marine collagen, chitosan, licorice and turmeric extracts. Fragrance-free and free of drying alcohol, but the short INCI includes non-standard entries that limit transparency.

Pros
  • TiO2 plus ZnO mineral pair, no chemical filters
  • Fragrance-free with no drying alcohol
  • Licorice and turmeric extracts for tone support
  • Marine collagen and chitosan add slip and conditioning
  • Short list limits additive exposure
Cons
  • INCI includes non-standard entries (PLG-40, nanosil)
  • Sparse supporting actives versus peers
  • Mineral pair can leave a cast on deeper skin

Who it's for: Buyers wanting a stripped-back mineral SPF and willing to accept a non-standard ingredient declaration.
