Verdict Should you buy it?

Hybrid base of TiO2 and ZnO is paired with three dated UVB filters — octinoxate, amiloxate, and 4-methylbenzylidene camphor — alongside methyl- and propylparaben. Added fragrance compounds an otherwise legacy ingredient profile.

Pros
  • Mineral filters TiO2 and ZnO present
  • Alcohol-free
  • Tone-up finish from titanium dioxide
Cons
  • Contains 4-methylbenzylidene camphor
  • Methylparaben and propylparaben present
  • Octinoxate and amiloxate as chemical UVB filters
  • Added fragrance

Who it's for: Hard to recommend over modern alternatives; a current-generation hybrid is a safer pick for new buyers.

01 Score breakdown
UV protection How well the product blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 94
Filter modernity Penalises legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen filters. 65
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, known sensitisers. 30
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity, biodegradability of UV filters and surfactants. 65
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, comfort on skin. 45
Health safety Endocrine concerns, systemic absorption signals across the formula. 35

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.
