Verdict Should you buy it?

Mineral SPF51 PA++++ built on zinc oxide alone, with no fragrance and no drying alcohols. Ferment lysates (Fusidium, Saccharomyces) and Cryptomeria and lotus leaf extracts sit on a hydrogenated-coconut-oil base. The trade-off is the heavier finish typical of high-load zinc-only formulas.

Pros
  • Zinc-oxide-only filter at SPF51 PA++++
  • No fragrance and no drying alcohol declared
  • Fusidium and Saccharomyces ferment soothers
  • Hydrogenated coconut oil and triglyceride emollients
  • Triethoxycaprylylsilane-coated zinc for better dispersion
Cons
  • Zinc-only formulas can leave a slight cast
  • Cream sits heavier than chemical alternatives
  • Borosilicate and hectorite may feel powdery on dry skin

Who it's for: Sensitive or breakout-prone buyers wanting a fragrance-free zinc-only sunscreen and comfortable with a fuller mineral finish.

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.
Mineral
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.
Yes
