Verdict Should you buy it?

A tinted hybrid emulsion combining octinoxate, Uvinul A Plus, bemotrizinol, Parsol SLX, bisoctrizole, and titanium dioxide for a glowy finish. Ethanol, fragrance, retinyl palmitate, BHT, and TEA temper an otherwise antioxidant-rich blend.

Pros
  • Six-filter hybrid blend with bisoctrizole and modern triazines
  • Antioxidants: tocopherol, two ascorbyl esters, centella
  • Argan and rosehip oils add a soft, glowy emolliency
  • Tint from mica, titanium dioxide, and iron oxides
Cons
  • Ethanol sits fourth on the INCI list
  • Contains fragrance and retinyl palmitate
  • Includes BHT and triethanolamine
  • Single tint shade limits skin-tone fit

Who it's for: Tinted-sunscreen buyers wanting a glowy hybrid with antioxidants who tolerate ethanol and fragrance.

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.
Hybrid
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.
Glowy
Tinted Adds sheer pigment (iron oxides) that masks the white cast common to mineral filters and gives a skin-tone finish.
Yes
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.
No
