01 The score breakdown
UV protection How hard it blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 76
Filter modernity Dings legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen ones. 50
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, and known sensitisers. 38
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity plus how biodegradable the UV filters and surfactants are. 100
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, and how it actually feels on skin. 68
Health safety Endocrine concerns and systemic absorption signals across the whole formula. 45
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.
Chemical
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.
Milk
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?

A lightweight milk with zinc oxide, Octinoxate, octocrylene, titanium dioxide, and bemotrizinol. The concatenated INCI shows ethanol and orange peel oil in the upper block, which drags the sensitivity profile despite the cosmetically pleasing finish.

Pros
  • Hybrid filter system with zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, and BEMT
  • Honey, sericin, and rice germ oil add skincare touches
  • Milk texture is light enough for daily wear under makeup
  • Camellia leaf extract brings antioxidant support
Cons
  • Ethanol high in the list can dry reactive skin
  • Octinoxate is an endocrine-disruption concern
  • Octocrylene can degrade into benzophenone over time
  • Orange peel oil acts as a fragrance and photosensitizer

Who it's for: Oily or combination skin wanting a lightweight everyday milk at an accessible price, comfortable with ethanol, Octinoxate, and citrus peel oil.
