Verdict Should you buy it?

A lightweight mineral milk fluid centered on niacinamide, hydrogenated lecithin, ethyl ferulate, and astaxanthin. The fragrance-free, ethanol-free base uses PEG-free glucoside emulsifiers for a thinner feel than typical mineral creams.

Pros
  • Fragrance-free and ethanol-free for sensitivity-prone skin
  • Niacinamide supports barrier and tone evenness
  • Antioxidants ethyl ferulate, tocopheryl acetate, and astaxanthin
  • PEG-free glucoside emulsifiers; fluid texture for a mineral
Cons
  • Untinted tone-up may not fully camouflage residual cast
  • Fragrance-free base lacks sensorial cues some buyers expect

Who it's for: Sensitive or reactive skin wanting a streamlined mineral fluid without fragrance, ethanol, or heavy emulsifiers.

01 Score breakdown
UV protection How well the product blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 60
Filter modernity Penalises legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen filters. 50
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, known sensitisers. 78
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity, biodegradability of UV filters and surfactants. 100
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, comfort on skin. 70
Health safety Endocrine concerns, systemic absorption signals across the formula. 80
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.
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.
