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.
Mineral
Broad spectrum Covers both UVA and UVB. UVA drives aging and deeper damage; UVB gives you burns.
Yes
Formulation & feel
Texture How it feels going on — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Cream
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.
Yes
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?

Mineral SPF using titanium dioxide and zinc oxide with niacinamide, dipotassium glycyrrhizate and centella-class botanicals positioned for oily and blemish-prone skin. Anhydrous ethanol low in the list and a silicone-heavy base reduce sensitivity tolerance.

Pros
  • Mineral-only filter set with titanium dioxide and zinc oxide
  • Niacinamide and dipotassium glycyrrhizate included
  • Fragrance-free per INCI
  • Coix seed and rice bran extracts for sebum-prone skin
  • Phenyl trimethicone for slip without fatty oils
Cons
  • Contains ethanol, so not alcohol-free
  • Heavy silicone payload may pill under makeup
  • PA+++ only, a lower UVA tier than peers
  • Phenoxyethanol preservative present

Who it's for: Suits a buyer with oily or blemish-prone skin seeking a mineral, fragrance-free option and unbothered by ethanol in the base.
