Verdict Should you buy it?

A fragrance-free, ethanol-free mineral cream using titanium dioxide as its sole UV filter, layered with botanicals like Scutellaria, echinacea, and clove. SPF42 PA++ is modest UVA cover, and the dense botanical mix carries its own allergen considerations.

Pros
  • Fragrance-free and free of ethanol
  • Mineral-only formulation with no chemical UV filters
  • Includes pseudo-ceramide from rice bran sphingoglycolipids
  • Stearyl glycyrrhetinate adds a calming touch
Cons
  • PA++ delivers limited UVA protection by JP standards
  • Single titanium dioxide filter may leave a white cast
  • Clove flower extract carries known fragrance allergens
  • Echinacea is in the Asteraceae allergen family

Who it's for: Lower-UV-exposure daily wear for buyers wanting a fragrance-free mineral with botanicals who tolerate plant-derived allergens.

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.
No
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.
