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.
Hybrid
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.
Milk
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?

A silicone-led mineral-forward milk built on zinc oxide and titanium dioxide with Parsol SLX as a polymeric assist. The fragrance-free formula carries less ethanol than the gel siblings, giving the cleanest sensitivity profile in the Allie line.

Pros
  • Fragrance-free per the INCI list
  • Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide lead the cast
  • Lower ethanol position than other Allie variants
  • Dimethicone and methyl trimethicone for smooth slip
  • No octinoxate, oxybenzone, or organic chemical UVB filters
Cons
  • Mineral-heavy load can leave a faint cast
  • Talc and stearic acid may not suit very dry skin
  • Polysilicone film-formers can feel occlusive in heat

Who it's for: Suits sensitive or fragrance-averse skin wanting a near-mineral milk with a soft matte finish and a current-generation polymeric UV booster.
