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

Chemical stick built only on modern EU filters: DHHB, Bemotrizinol, Uvinul T 150, and Parsol SLX. Contains fragrance, ethanol, and a long botanical and hyaluronic-acid blend; no zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.

Pros
  • Modern-only filter stack: DHHB, BEMT, EHT, Parsol SLX
  • No octinoxate, homosalate, or octocrylene
  • Multiple hyaluronic-acid forms plus bisabolol
  • Stick format for portable reapplication
Cons
  • Contains fragrance and ethanol
  • Menthol-family extracts (mentha arvensis) raise irritation risk
  • No mineral filters in the lineup

Who it's for: Buyers who want a fully modern filter profile in a stick and are not sensitive to fragrance, ethanol, or layered botanicals.
