Verdict Should you buy it?

A fully modern chemical sunscreen built on DHHB, Parsol SLX, ethylhexyl triazone, and bemotrizinol — no octinoxate, no fragrance, no drying alcohol. A botanical and niacinamide-driven base keeps the sensitivity profile high.

Pros
  • All-modern filter stack: DHHB, Parsol SLX, ET, and bemotrizinol
  • Fragrance-free and alcohol-free per the INCI list
  • Niacinamide, panthenol, allantoin, and adenosine in support
  • Wide botanical complement including aloe, portulaca, and maca
Cons
  • Chemical-only formula won't suit shoppers who avoid organic filters
  • Cream texture may feel slightly emollient on oily skin

Who it's for: Buyers comfortable with chemical filters who want a current European-style formula with a low-allergen botanical base.

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.
Chemical
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.
