What it is
An essence-type daily sunscreen with chemical UV filters designed for a mild, non-greasy finish and transparent application.
Who it's for
- Normal to combination and oily skin wanting a breathable, no-cast SPF.
- Makeup wearers seeking a smooth base that sets quickly.
- Users who prefer chemical filters over mineral filters for clear application; patch test if sensitive.
Key ingredients (INCI)
- UV filters (chemical/organic) — broad-spectrum SPF50+ PA++++ protection with a clear finish.
- Niacinamide — supports even tone and barrier function.
- Sodium Hyaluronate and humectants — hydration to maintain a comfortable, dewy feel.
- Soothing plant extracts (including white truffle line) — cosmetic antioxidant and calming support.
Free-from / texture
- Essence-like fluid that spreads easily without white cast.
- Lightweight, non-sticky, dewy finish suitable for reapplication.
- No mineral filters; review full INCI for potential fragrance or filter sensitivities.
How to use & order
- Apply as the final step of morning skincare; shake if instructed on packaging.
- Use 2-3 finger lengths or ~1/4 teaspoon for face and neck; include ears and hairline.
- Reapply every 2-3 hours with continued UV exposure or after sweating/towel-drying.
Conflicts & layering tips
- Plays well with most serums and moisturizers; allow prior layers to absorb to prevent pilling.
- If pilling occurs, reduce heavy silicones and give more drying time between steps.
- Fragrance-sensitive users should patch test if prone to irritation from chemical filters.
Evidence & notes
- Broad-spectrum SPF50+ PA++++ per manufacturer testing; effectiveness depends on generous, even application.
- Chemical filters apply clear and typically suit deeper skin tones without cast.
- Daily sunscreen is essential when using brightening or exfoliating actives to help maintain results.
Safety
- For external use only; discontinue if burning or persistent redness occurs.
- Patch test for known sensitivities to chemical filters or fragrance components.
- Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly if contact occurs.
- Consult a professional before use on compromised or post-procedure skin.
