Ranks #1062 of 1558 in the current catalogue. All-chemical filter combo (avobenzone/homosalate/octisalate/octocrylene) is elegant and oatmeal/soy soothing, but homosalate raises endocrine-disruption concern.
Verdict Should you buy it?
All-chemical US-formula milk built on avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, and octocrylene, cushioned by colloidal oatmeal, soy, and aloe for a comforting feel. Homosalate content is the main flag.
Pros
- Fragrance-free formulation
- Colloidal oatmeal, soy, and aloe for soothing
- Lightweight milk texture, invisible finish
- Astaxanthin from Haematococcus for antioxidant support
- Ferulate, tocopherol, and rice extracts in the supporting cast
Cons
- Homosalate raises endocrine-disruption concern
- Legacy US filter stack lacks modern long-UVA depth
- SPF 45, lower than the SPF 50+ peer set
- No PA rating provided
Who it's for: US shoppers wanting a fragrance-free, oat-soothed chemical milk with a transparent finish; not for those avoiding homosalate.

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.
Milk
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.
