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.
Mineral
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.
Cream
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.
Yes
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?

Mineral SPF 51 cream with titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, formulated as a Japan-market tranexamic acid product. Fragrance-free, but ethanol and stacked PEGs sit in the base.

Pros
  • Dual mineral filters with PA++++
  • Fragrance-free per the INCI
  • Tranexamic acid included per Japan OTC formulation
  • Scutellaria baicalensis and tocopherol in supporting cast
Cons
  • Contains ethanol, can feel drying
  • PEG-9, PEG-12, and PEG-30 stacked in the formula
  • Mineral base can leave a subtle cast

Who it's for: Japan-market buyers seeking a tranexamic acid mineral cream and tolerating ethanol; skip if alcohol-sensitive.
