01 The score breakdown
UV protection How hard it blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 36
Filter modernity Dings legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen ones. 50
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, and known sensitisers. 25
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. 58
Health safety Endocrine concerns and systemic absorption signals across the whole formula. 35
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.
Spray
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.
No
Alcohol-free No drying short-chain alcohols (alcohol denat., SD alcohol, ethanol). Doesn't mean fatty alcohols like cetyl or stearyl — those are emollients.
No
Verdict Is it worth it?

An alcohol denat spray with homosalate 10% plus avobenzone, octisalate, and octocrylene. Fragrance and the drying alcohol base define the wear — invisible and quick-drying, but irritation and endocrine flags scale with the homosalate load.

Pros
  • Fast-drying, invisible finish on body
  • Tocopherol antioxidant included
  • No methylisothiazolinone preservation
Cons
  • Alcohol denat can dry and irritate skin
  • Homosalate at 10% raises endocrine-load concern
  • Fragrance is a common sensitizer
  • Legacy filter set without Tinosorb-tier UVA support

Who it's for: Body sprayers wanting a transparent, quick-drying application who do not react to alcohol or fragrance.
