Verdict Should you buy it?

All-mineral tinted drops led by zinc oxide and supported by titanium dioxide, in a botanical and emulsifier-rich base. Tint counters white-cast, and preservation rests on gluconolactone and sodium benzoate.

Pros
  • Zinc oxide plus titanium dioxide for broad-spectrum coverage
  • Iron-oxide tint reduces mineral white-cast
  • Gluconolactone and sodium benzoate preservation
  • Free of added fragrance and denatured alcohol
  • Drop format layers into skincare or foundation
Cons
  • Single tint shade may not match deeper complexions
  • Drop format requires careful, even application
  • Mineral filters can pill under heavier makeup

Who it's for: Sensitive or reactive skin types wanting a tinted all-mineral SPF that blends into an existing skincare or makeup routine.

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.
Yes
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.
Glowy
Tinted Adds sheer pigment (iron oxides) that masks the white cast common to mineral filters and gives a skin-tone finish.
Yes
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.
