Verdict Should you buy it?

A chemical sunscreen built on DHHB, bemotrizinol and ethylhexyl triazone for a lightweight, fragrance-free feel. Ethanol sits at position three and is joined by grapefruit, basil, pine and cypress oils plus limonene, which narrows its sensitive-skin appeal.

Pros
  • Modern EU filter system covers broad-spectrum on paper
  • Lightweight chemical texture suits an invisible finish
  • Fragrance-free by declaration
  • Polysilicone-15 helps reinforce UV filter performance
  • Chlorella and kale extracts add an antioxidant angle
Cons
  • Ethanol at position three can sting and dry the skin
  • Grapefruit peel oil carries photo-sensitization risk
  • Basil, pine and cypress oils stack reactivity concerns
  • Limonene listed at the tail end of the label

Who it's for: Suits oily skin chasing an invisible chemical SPF and comfortable with alcohol; not for reactive skin or those avoiding essential oils.

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.
No
