Verdict Should you buy it?

A mineral SPF50+ milk pairing zinc oxide and titanium dioxide in a short, sensitive-skin-oriented base with cholesterol, glycogen, and dipotassium glycyrrhizate. Fragrance- and alcohol-free with no chemical filters, though the mineral-only stack carries the usual cast and finish trade-offs.

Pros
  • ZnO + TiO2 mineral broad-spectrum, no chemical filters
  • Fragrance-free and alcohol-free
  • Cholesterol and glycogen support skin feel
  • Dipotassium glycyrrhizate for soothing
  • PA++++ UVA rating
Cons
  • Mineral-only formula can leave a white cast
  • Cosmetic elegance is modest at this filter load
  • Short hydrator list vs skincare-forward SPFs

Who it's for: Sensitive or reactive skin wanting high SPF and PA without any organic UV filters or fragrance, and accepting a slightly heavier mineral finish.

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.
Mineral
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.
Milk
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.
