Verdict Should you buy it?

A body-only dry oil layering denatured alcohol high in the list with soybean, coconut, argan, grape, and meadowfoam oils. The finish is glowy and slip-prone, designed for limbs rather than face, and not aimed at reactive skin.

Pros
  • Lightweight dry-oil texture for body use
  • No added Fragrance or Parfum in the INCI
  • Diethylhexyl syringylidenemalonate antioxidant support
  • Shea butter, argan, and tocopherol for emollience
Cons
  • Denatured alcohol sits second in the ingredient list
  • Dense plant-oil bed may trigger sensitive or acne-prone skin
  • Glowy, oily finish is unsuitable for facial use

Who it's for: Adults wanting a glowy dry oil for arms, shoulders, and legs who tolerate denatured alcohol and a heavy plant-oil load.

01 Score breakdown
UV protection How well the product blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 60
Filter modernity Penalises legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen filters. 50
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, known sensitisers. 50
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity, biodegradability of UV filters and surfactants. 100
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, comfort on skin. 65
Health safety Endocrine concerns, systemic absorption signals across the formula. 55
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.
Glowy
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
