Ranks #599 of 1558 in the current catalogue. Clean fragrance/alcohol-free base with rich soothing actives; octinoxate is the main health-safety drag, offset by EHT/DHHB/BEMT modern filters.
Verdict Should you buy it?
A Korean hybrid pairing octinoxate with bemotrizinol, ethylhexyl triazone, DHHB, and titanium dioxide on a heavy hyaluronic-acid and cica base. The absence of fragrance helps tolerance; octinoxate and chlorphenesin are the main flags.
Pros
- Modern filters bemotrizinol, DHHB, and ET broaden the coverage profile
- Multi-weight hyaluronic acid plus madecassoside and panthenol
- Fragrance-free and alcohol-free per the INCI list
- Centella, aloe, and allantoin in the soothing complement
Cons
- Octinoxate remains the lead chemical filter
- Chlorphenesin preservative is a known sensitizer
- Cream texture may feel rich on oily or combination skin
Who it's for: Buyers wanting layered HA hydration and cica with modern filters, accepting octinoxate's presence in exchange for the rest of the lineup.

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.
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.
