Verdict Should you buy it?
A Korean essence SPF 51 / PA++++ built on Uvinul A Plus, Uvinul T 150, and Bemotrizinol, with a vitamin-forward stack of niacinamide, ascorbic acid, ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate, sodium ascorbyl phosphate, glutathione, and B-complex. Added Fragrance and glycolic acid moderate the sensitivity story.
Pros
- Three modern EU filters for strong broad-spectrum cover
- Multiple stable and unstable vitamin C forms layered in
- Glutathione, tranexamic acid, and arbutin support tone
- Niacinamide and ceramide NP for the barrier
Cons
- Fragrance listed in the INCI
- Glycolic acid with high-percentage niacinamide may sting
- Beta-carotene and ascorbic acid can destabilize on contact with air
- Essence texture may not suit very dry skin alone
Who it's for: Buyers who want a vitamin C and brightening SPF essence and tolerate fragrance plus a low dose of glycolic acid.

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.
Chemical
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.
Essence
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.
