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.
Yes
Formulation & feel
Texture How it feels going on — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Essence
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.
Yes
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?

Fragrance-free, alcohol-free mineral essence using zinc oxide and titanium dioxide with mica and silica for blurring. Mineral oil and petrolatum bulk it out but the overall list is gentle.

Pros
  • Fragrance-free and alcohol-free
  • Mineral-only filter system
  • Mica and silica soft-focus shine
  • Sodium hyaluronate and squalane for hydration
  • Tocopherol antioxidant
Cons
  • Mineral oil and petrolatum may feel heavy
  • Some white-cast risk on deeper tones
  • Multiple polyglyceryl emulsifiers

Who it's for: Sensitive-skin shoppers who prefer mineral filters and a softly blurring essence over a clear chemical finish.
