Verdict Should you buy it?

Legacy US chemical filter quartet — avobenzone with octocrylene, homosalate, and octisalate — stabilized by ethylhexyl methoxycrylene in an essence-textured serum. NMN-style sodium DNA, madecassoside, and niacinamide carry the skincare claims, but limonene, linalool, and rosemary oil sit on top.

Pros
  • Photostabilizer support for avobenzone improves filter stability
  • Niacinamide, panthenol, and madecassoside included
  • Sodium hyaluronate and soluble collagen for hydration
  • Lightweight serum texture
Cons
  • Homosalate and octocrylene draw ongoing endocrine concerns
  • Rosemary oil with limonene and linalool raises sensitization risk
  • INCI contains a fragmented entry that obscures full disclosure

Who it's for: Buyers comfortable with the US chemical filter set who want a serum-light finish with skincare additions, and accept herbal-allergen exposure.

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.
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.
