Verdict Should you buy it?

Compact hybrid pairing DHHB and PBSA with ZnO and TiO2 for SPF 35 PA++++, kept simple with talc, panthenol, and sodium hyaluronate. The sparse disclosure and inclusion of isopropyl methylphenol — an antimicrobial flagged for sensitization — limit how far you can trust the formula.

Pros
  • DHHB provides solid UVA1 coverage at SPF 35
  • Short, low-complexity ingredient list
  • Fragrance-free and alcohol-free per disclosed INCI
  • Panthenol and sodium hyaluronate add light hydration
Cons
  • Isopropyl methylphenol carries sensitization concern
  • Three preservatives stack: phenoxyethanol, chlorphenesin, IPMP
  • Sparse formula data limits stability and elegance assessment

Who it's for: Buyers wanting a low-complexity hybrid with DHHB for daily protection who accept the preservative system as disclosed.

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.

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.
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.
