Verdict Should you buy it?

A fragrance-free, alcohol-free hybrid milk pairing octinoxate with Uvinul A Plus, Bemotrizinol, and zinc oxide. Tranexamic acid and licorice root soothe, but octinoxate and BHT keep the health-safety profile mixed.

Pros
  • Fragrance-free and alcohol-free per the INCI
  • Bemotrizinol and Uvinul A Plus are modern broad-spectrum filters
  • Zinc oxide rounds out UVA coverage alongside chemical filters
  • Tranexamic acid and dipotassium glycyrrhizate calm the skin
Cons
  • Octinoxate carries endocrine-disruption concerns
  • BHT preservative in the formula
  • Milk format can pill under heavier moisturizers or makeup

Who it's for: Drier or sensitive skin wanting a fragrance-free hybrid filter system with soothing actives, willing to accept octinoxate.

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.
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.
