Verdict Should you buy it?

A balm-style chemical stick disclosing avobenzone 3%, homosalate 10%, octisalate 5%, and octocrylene, cushioned in coco-caprylate, isopropyl isostearate, and cloudberry seed oil for a dewy finish. Portable and emollient, with homosalate at 10% as the main health-side caveat.

Pros
  • Fragrance-free stick format convenient for reapplication
  • Rich emollient base with cloudberry seed oil and rice extracts
  • Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate adds a stable vitamin C derivative
  • Diethylhexyl syringylidenemalonate boosts photostability
Cons
  • Homosalate listed at 10%, flagged for endocrine-disruption review
  • Octocrylene carries discussion around degradation byproducts
  • Oil-rich stick may feel heavy on already-oily skin

Who it's for: Suits dry or normal skin wanting a dewy, portable touch-up stick who accept the conventional US chemical filter set.

01 Score breakdown
UV protection How well the product blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 60
Filter modernity Penalises legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen filters. 50
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, known sensitisers. 55
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity, biodegradability of UV filters and surfactants. 100
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, comfort on skin. 75
Health safety Endocrine concerns, systemic absorption signals across the formula. 55
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.
Chemical
Broad spectrum Protects across both UVA and UVB ranges. UVA causes aging and deeper damage; UVB causes burns.
No
Formulation & feel
Texture How the formula feels at application — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Stick
Finish How the formula looks on skin once dry: matte, natural, dewy, or glowy.
Dewy
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.
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.
