03 The facts, at a glance
Protection
Filter type Mineral filters (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) sit on skin and reflect UV. Chemical filters absorb UV. Hybrid runs both.
Mineral
Broad spectrum Covers both UVA and UVB. UVA drives aging and deeper damage; UVB gives you burns.
No
Formulation & feel
Texture How it feels going on — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Gel
Finish How it looks 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' is different — it can hide masking fragrance. Botanical oils still scent.
No
Alcohol-free No drying short-chain alcohols (alcohol denat., SD alcohol, ethanol). Doesn't mean fatty alcohols like cetyl or stearyl — those are emollients.
Yes
Verdict Is it worth it?

An all-mineral titanium dioxide SPF 35 PA+++ gel with simple emollients and ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate. Parfum, methyl- and propylparaben, and BHT keep it short of a fragrance-free, modern-preservative profile.

Pros
  • All-mineral TiO2 system with no chemical filters
  • Ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate adds a stable vitamin C derivative
  • Licorice root extract supplies soothing support
  • Gel format feels lighter than typical mineral creams
Cons
  • Parfum plus methyl- and propylparaben in the formula
  • BHT preservative present
  • TiO2-only filter set leans toward casual daily exposure
  • PA+++ rather than PA++++

Who it's for: Mineral-only users wanting a lighter SPF 35 gel for everyday wear who tolerate fragrance and traditional preservatives.
