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.
Essence
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 cooling, mineral-oil and petrolatum-rich essence pairing avobenzone, octisalate, and PBSA for PA++++ UVA. The menthol and fragrance deliver the brand's signature freshness but pile on sensitizers.

Pros
  • PA++++ rating signals strong UVA protection
  • Petrolatum and mineral oil add occlusive moisture
  • Niacinamide and sodium ascorbyl phosphate aid brightening goals
  • Lightweight essence texture spreads easily
  • Affordable, widely available across Asian markets
Cons
  • Menthol can sting compromised or sensitive skin
  • Fragranced, adding another irritation vector
  • PEG-100 stearate and emulsifier load may not suit acne-prone users
  • Filter set is older despite the PA++++ claim

Who it's for: A budget-tier daily option for normal-to-dry skin that enjoys a cooling sensation and tolerates fragrance and menthol.
