Verdict Should you buy it?

A US-style chemical stick using homosalate, octocrylene, octisalate, and avobenzone with Ethylhexyl Methoxycrylene as a photostabilizer. Fragrance-free and alcohol-free, but the filter mix is older and homosalate dominates the list.

Pros
  • Fragrance-free formula by INCI
  • No ethanol or denatured alcohol
  • Ethylhexyl Methoxycrylene helps photostabilize avobenzone
  • Bisabolol and chamomile add light soothing notes
  • Stick format is travel- and pocket-friendly
Cons
  • Homosalate leads the list and has endocrine-review concerns
  • Octocrylene may degrade to benzophenone over time
  • Filter set lacks Tinosorb or Uvinul-class modern options
  • Wax base can leave a tacky cast on humid days

Who it's for: Fragrance-sensitive buyers in US filter markets who want a simple stick and accept legacy organic UV 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.
Yes
Formulation & feel
Texture How the formula feels at application — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Stick
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.
