Verdict Should you buy it?

An airy whipped mousse delivering the standard avobenzone, homosalate, octocrylene, and octisalate quartet over a glycerin and aloe base. Niacinamide and sodium hyaluronate add skin support, but added fragrance and the homosalate-octocrylene pairing weigh on the sensitivity and health profile.

Pros
  • Light, airy mousse texture spreads easily without heavy residue
  • Niacinamide and sodium hyaluronate support barrier and hydration
  • Aloe and glycerin keep the base humectant-forward
  • Alcohol-free formulation
Cons
  • Contains fragrance, raising irritation risk on reactive skin
  • Homosalate plus octocrylene carry endocrine-exposure concerns
  • SPF 30 with chemical filters only, no UVA-rating disclosure

Who it's for: Shoppers who want a fragranced, weightless body mousse at SPF 30 and don't mind a conventional US chemical filter set.

01 Score breakdown
UV protection How well the product blocks UVA + UVB across the spectrum at the stated SPF/PA. 36
Filter modernity Penalises legacy filters (octinoxate, oxybenzone); rewards photostable next-gen filters. 50
Sensitivity safety Risk for reactive skin — fragrance, alcohol, known sensitisers. 42
Reef / env. safety Reef toxicity, biodegradability of UV filters and surfactants. 100
Cosmetic elegance Spread, finish, white-cast, comfort on skin. 72
Health safety Endocrine concerns, systemic absorption signals across the formula. 45
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.
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.
No
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.
