Verdict Should you buy it?

A mineral body sunscreen with ascorbyl glucoside, ectoine, and rutin layered over zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Multiple fragrance allergens plus citrus peel and chamomile oils make it a poor fit for reactive skin.

Pros
  • Mineral-only filters: zinc oxide and titanium dioxide
  • Ascorbyl glucoside as a stable vitamin C derivative
  • Ectoine and rutin support the antioxidant load
  • Glyceryl glucoside humectant for hydration
  • Body-scale tone-up format with a wider application surface
Cons
  • Added fragrance plus geraniol and phenethyl alcohol
  • Citrus aurantium dulcis peel oil can cause phototoxicity
  • Anthemis nobilis flower oil adds allergen risk
  • Cosmetic finish trails fragrance-free peers

Who it's for: Body-use buyers wanting a mineral tone-up SPF with vitamin C derivatives who accept perfumed Japanese formulas.

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.
No
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.
