Verdict Should you buy it?

Hybrid face-and-body cream pairing zinc oxide and titanium dioxide with homosalate, octisalate, and Uvinul A Plus. Contains both ethanol and fragrance, with a dense botanical and seed-oil profile.

Pros
  • Hybrid mineral plus DHHB for UVA support
  • Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide both present
  • Niacinamide and centella derivatives included
  • Rich seed-oil and botanical blend for dry skin
Cons
  • Contains ethanol and fragrance
  • Homosalate is a legacy organic filter
  • Heavy oil and extract list may not suit acne-prone skin

Who it's for: Body-and-face use on normal-to-dry skin where botanical richness is welcome; not for fragrance-reactive or alcohol-sensitive users.

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.
Hybrid
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.
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.
No
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.
