Verdict Should you buy it?

Green-toned variant on the same modern DHHB/Parsol SLX/ET/TiO2 stack as the other Waterful tone-ups. The essential oil blend here is unusually heavy — fir, lavandin, lime, juniper, geranium, patchouli, spearmint — and retinal is included.

Pros
  • Modern UV filter combination matches the purple and regular tone-ups
  • Chromium oxide green pigment is aimed at redness correction
  • Retinal supports texture and tone claims
  • Layered hyaluronic acid system plus madecassoside and asiaticoside
Cons
  • Fir, lavandin, lime, juniper, geranium, patchouli, and spearmint oils
  • Retinal may compound irritation with the essential oil load
  • Green pigment can leave a cool tone on darker complexions

Who it's for: Buyers targeting visible redness who want a green color-corrector and are not sensitive to retinal or a heavy essential oil load.

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.
