Verdict Should you buy it?

An all-modern chemical trio of octisalate, Tinosorb M, and Uvinul A Plus in a squalane-rich cream with centella and panthenol. Free of octinoxate and added fragrance, though o-cymen-5-ol is the primary irritant flag.

Pros
  • Modern filter set, no octinoxate or octocrylene
  • Fragrance-free
  • Tinosorb M brings broad-spectrum photostability
  • Centella extract and panthenol support irritated skin
  • Squalane and tocopheryl acetate add emolliency
Cons
  • O-cymen-5-ol (a phenolic preservative) can irritate sensitive skin
  • Propylene glycol sits relatively high in the list
  • Multiple co-preservatives may not suit very reactive skin

Who it's for: Buyers wanting a modern non-octinoxate filter set with centella support who can tolerate o-cymen-5-ol.

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.
