01 The score breakdown
UV protection How hard it blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 60
Filter modernity Dings legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen ones. 50
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, and known sensitisers. 38
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity plus how biodegradable the UV filters and surfactants are. 100
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, and how it actually feels on skin. 72
Health safety Endocrine concerns and systemic absorption signals across the whole formula. 40
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.
No
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.
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.
Yes
Verdict Is it worth it?

A higher-strength whipped mousse leaning on 15% homosalate alongside octisalate, octocrylene, and avobenzone to reach SPF 50. The texture stays elegant and niacinamide is included, but the heavy homosalate load plus fragrance pushes sensitivity and systemic-exposure scores down.

Pros
  • SPF 50 in an airy, easily blendable mousse format
  • Niacinamide and sodium hyaluronate add barrier and hydration support
  • Aloe and glycerin keep the humectant base mild on application
  • Alcohol-free formulation
Cons
  • 15% homosalate is a high concentration for daily reapplication
  • Contains fragrance, raising irritation potential
  • No PA rating disclosed; UVA balance not specified

Who it's for: Body sunscreen users who want a high-SPF, light mousse and are willing to accept a heavy homosalate load and added fragrance.
