Verdict Should you buy it?
A waxy stick base of candelilla, beeswax, and fatty acids with ethylhexyl methoxycrylene — a photostabilizer, not a UV filter. The published INCI shows no recognized active sunscreen filters, leaving the SPF 30 claim unsupported by the disclosed label.
Pros
- Stick format for portable application
- Caprylic/capric triglyceride and cetyl alcohol for slip

- Hops extract included as a botanical
Cons
- No recognized UV filters appear in the published INCI
- Ingredient list is concatenated, hard to verify line by line
- Fatty-acid blend may feel heavy on oily skin
- No PA rating reported
Who it's for: Buyers attracted to the stick format and brand who accept that the published INCI does not list any recognized UV-active filters.

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.
Chemical
Broad spectrum Protects across both UVA and UVB ranges. UVA causes aging and deeper damage; UVB causes burns.
No
Formulation & feel
Texture How the formula feels at application — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Stick
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.
Yes
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.
