Verdict Should you buy it?

All-mineral formula with non-nano zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as the only UV filters. Niacinamide and oligopeptide-3 added in a silicone-blended base. Fragrance and alcohol free.

Pros
  • Pure mineral filter system (ZnO + TiO2)
  • Non-nano particle size
  • Niacinamide for tone support
  • Oligopeptide-3 included
  • Fragrance-free and alcohol-free
Cons
  • Non-nano minerals can leave a slight white cast
  • Multiple botanical extracts may sensitize some
  • Silicone-rich base may not suit silicone-averse

Who it's for: Mineral-only buyers wanting niacinamide who accept the trade-off of potential white cast.

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.
Mineral
Broad spectrum Protects across both UVA and UVB ranges. UVA causes aging and deeper damage; UVB causes burns.
Yes
Formulation & feel
Texture How the formula feels at application — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Cream
Finish How the formula looks on skin 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' 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.
