What it is

Lightweight, moisturizing chemical sunscreen that delivers broad-spectrum SPF50+ PA++++ protection with a non-greasy, transparent finish.

Who it's for

  • All skin types, including oily/combination, seeking daily invisible UV protection.
  • Dehydrated or dull skin wanting a hydrating, non-sticky sunscreen base.
  • Makeup wearers needing a smooth, non-pilling SPF under foundation.

Key ingredients (INCI)

  • Modern chemical UV filters — broad-spectrum protection with an invisible finish.
  • Rice Extract — supports a moisturized, comfortable feel.
  • Probiotics complex — cosmetic support for a balanced-looking skin feel.
  • Niacinamide — helps even tone appearance and supports barrier strength.
  • Humectants (e.g., glycerin, hyaluronic acid) — attract water for hydration.

Free-from / texture

  • Featherlight lotion texture; absorbs quickly with dewy-to-natural finish.
  • Formulated to minimize white cast and pilling under makeup.
  • Generally low fragrance; review INCI for sensitivities.

How to use & order

  • Apply as the final AM skincare step, after moisturizer.
  • Use two finger-lengths for face and more for neck/ears; spread evenly.
  • Reapply every 2–3 hours when outdoors or after sweating/water exposure.

Conflicts & layering tips

  • Compatible with most routines; let serums/moisturizers fully absorb to reduce pilling.
  • Avoid applying directly after strong exfoliants if skin is irritated; buffer with hydrating toner.
  • Use daily regardless of weather for consistent protection.

Evidence & notes

  • SPF and PA ratings are based on standardized testing; reapplication is necessary for maintained protection.
  • Chemical filters offer transparent finish; sensitization varies by individual—patch test if reactive.
  • Hydrating agents can reduce dryness from other actives when layered thoughtfully.

Safety

  • For external use only; discontinue if irritation occurs.
  • Keep out of eyes; rinse if contact occurs.
  • Do not apply on broken or compromised skin; consult a professional if post-procedure.
  • Pregnancy/breastfeeding: cosmetic ingredients; consult your physician for personal guidance.
