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.
Stick
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 Korean stick with citronellol, geraniol, linalool, and limonene at the top of the list alongside fragrance, then a chemical filter stack including octinoxate, octocrylene, BEMT, and avobenzone. Cica and tea tree are the headline; the allergen profile is the catch.
Pros
- Bemotrizinol and Parsol SLX improve avobenzone photostability
- Centella asiatica actives and madecassoside aid comfort
- Tea tree extract aligns with blemish-leaning routines
- Stick format is travel- and touch-up-friendly
Cons
- Four EU-listed fragrance allergens sit high in the list
- Added Fragrance compounds the sensitizer load
- Octinoxate is restricted in some reef-aware regions
- Essential oil and wax-rich base can feel heavy on oily skin
Who it's for: Only suitable for fragrance-tolerant users wanting a portable stick with a tea tree and cica positioning.
