Verdict Should you buy it?

A minimal cream relying on octinoxate and avobenzone in a cyclopentasiloxane base, delivering basic SPF 30 PA+++ coverage. The disclosed INCI is unusually short, so the full picture of stabilizers and emulsifiers is unclear.

Pros
  • Fragrance-free and alcohol-free per the disclosed INCI
  • Silicone base gives a light, slip-forward feel
  • Avobenzone provides broad UVA coverage to PA+++
  • Simple short ingredient list, low risk of obscure sensitizers
Cons
  • Only three ingredients disclosed; full formula is opaque
  • Octinoxate is a legacy filter restricted in some regions
  • No declared photostabilizer for avobenzone
  • SPF 30 is modest for high-UV days

Who it's for: A buyer wanting a no-frills daily chemical SPF 30 in a silicone-light cream, willing to accept octinoxate and an incomplete ingredient disclosure.

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.
