Ranks #1191 of 1558 in the current catalogue. US chemical filter quartet (avobenzone/homosalate/octisalate/octocrylene) at high % is dry-touch elegant but homosalate load hurts health score.
Verdict Should you buy it?
US filter quartet (avobenzone, homosalate 15%, octisalate, octocrylene) in a silica- and polymer-loaded dry-touch base. Mattifies oily skin while staying fragrance- and alcohol-free, though the 15% homosalate load weighs on the health profile.
Pros
- Fragrance-free and alcohol-free formula
- Silica plus styrene/methyl methacrylate polymers for shine control
- SPF 60 with avobenzone for UVA coverage
- Cassia alata extract for antioxidant support
Cons
- 15% homosalate is a notable endocrine-disruptor concern
- Older US filter system lacks modern UVA1 filters
- Polymer-heavy texture may feel tight on dry skin
Who it's for: Oily and combination skin shoppers in the US who need a mattifying daily face SPF and don't have access to modern UVA filters.

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.
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.
