Verdict Should you buy it?

A zinc oxide-only tinted mineral with iron oxides for tone, built on a gentle alkane and ester emollient base. Fragrance-free, alcohol-free, and supported by bisabolol and tocopherol, though SPF 30 sets a modest protection ceiling.

Pros
  • Single-filter zinc oxide gives broad mineral coverage
  • Iron oxides add tone and visible-light support
  • Fragrance-free and alcohol-free by INCI
  • Bisabolol and tocopherol soothe and stabilize
  • Sea buckthorn oil and lecithin add lightweight nourishment
Cons
  • SPF 30 caps protection below SPF 50 peers
  • No PA rating listed for direct UVA comparison
  • Tinted shade range limits cross-tone usability
  • Mineral-only base can sheer out unevenly without thorough blending

Who it's for: Sensitive-skin buyers wanting a fragrance-free, alcohol-free tinted mineral primer and content with SPF 30 protection.

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.
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.
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.
