01 The score breakdown
UV protection How hard it blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 36
Filter modernity Dings legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen ones. 50
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, and known sensitisers. 25
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity plus how biodegradable the UV filters and surfactants are. 100
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, and how it actually feels on skin. 70
Health safety Endocrine concerns and systemic absorption signals across the whole formula. 45
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.
Chemical
Broad spectrum Covers both UVA and UVB. UVA drives aging and deeper damage; UVB gives you burns.
No
Formulation & feel
Texture How it feels going on — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Spray
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.
No
Alcohol-free No drying short-chain alcohols (alcohol denat., SD alcohol, ethanol). Doesn't mean fatty alcohols like cetyl or stearyl — those are emollients.
No
Verdict Is it worth it?

An ethanol-forward setting spray with avobenzone 2.8%, homosalate 3.5%, and octisalate, plus PVP and silica silylate for a matte set. Quick-drying over makeup, but alcohol and Aroma make it sensitizing.

Pros
  • Sprays over set makeup without disturbing the finish
  • Quick-dry, low-tack feel from alcohol and PVP
  • Silica silylate adds a blotted, matte hold
  • Aloe and sodium hyaluronate hydrate the base
Cons
  • Alcohol high in the list — drying for many
  • Contains Aroma — sensitization risk
  • Homosalate at 3.5% raises endocrine concern
  • SPF 30 only — not a substitute for the primary layer

Who it's for: Makeup wearers who want a top-up SPF mist over foundation and powder; skip if your skin reacts to ethanol or fragrance.
