Verdict Should you buy it?

A fragrance-free aerosol with LPG propellant, ethanol, menthol, and citrus juices alongside octinoxate, zinc oxide, bemotrizinol, and Uvinul A Plus at SPF50 PA++++. Protection is strong, but the multi-sensitizer base and parabens make it a high-irritation-risk formula.

Pros
  • High SPF50 PA++++ protection
  • Modern filters including bemotrizinol and Uvinul A Plus
  • Light aerosol spray application
  • Fragrance-free formula
Cons
  • Contains ethanol, menthol, LPG, and citrus juices
  • Methylparaben and propylparaben preservatives
  • Octinoxate as a primary chemical filter
  • One of the lowest sensitivity scores in this set

Who it's for: Buyers who want a high-SPF cooling spray for casual use and tolerate ethanol and menthol; not for sensitive, reactive, or photosensitized skin.

01 Score breakdown
UV protection How well the product blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 99
Filter modernity Penalises legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen filters. 82
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, known sensitisers. 25
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity, biodegradability of UV filters and surfactants. 65
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, comfort on skin. 65
Health safety Endocrine concerns, systemic absorption signals across the formula. 38

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.
Hybrid
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.
No
