Verdict Should you buy it?

Pressed powder pact with a hybrid filter system anchored on titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, octinoxate, and bemotrizinol. Tint and silicones aid blendability, but fragrance, parabens, and mineral oil load make the formula a sensitivity-conscious skip.

Pros
  • Compact pact format makes touch-ups portable
  • Quad-filter blend includes modern bemotrizinol alongside zinc oxide
  • Tint helps offset white cast from mineral filters
  • Alcohol-free base with no ethanol or denatured alcohol
  • Squalane and tocopheryl acetate add light emollience
Cons
  • Fragrance present in the INCI
  • Methylparaben and propylparaben both used as preservatives
  • Mineral oil ranks among the base ingredients
  • Octinoxate is a legacy chemical filter

Who it's for: Buyers wanting an on-the-go pressed pact for daytime touch-ups and tint, who don't mind fragrance or parabens in a powder format.

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.
Yes
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.
No
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.
