Verdict Should you buy it?

Minimalist mineral SPF 50+ PA++++ with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide in a silicone-led base. Fragrance-free, alcohol-free, and stripped of botanical extras, though the silicone structure and dense mineral load can leave a noticeable cast.

Pros
  • Very short INCI with no fragrance, alcohol, or botanical extracts
  • Strong zinc and titanium loading supports high UV protection
  • Silicone base aids spreadability over dense mineral filters
  • No octinoxate, oxybenzone, or EDC-suspect filters
  • PA++++ UVA rating
Cons
  • Silicone-led texture can pill under certain primers and bases
  • Dense mineral loading risks a visible white cast
  • Minimal supportive actives — no niacinamide or barrier humectants

Who it's for: Buyers wanting a stripped-down mineral SPF with maximum filter loading and minimum supporting ingredients.

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.
Mineral
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.
