by Ilia · skin_care
Editor's Take
Mineral SPF 40 that actually behaves like a serum , Squalane and Shea Butter Esters do the heavy lifting, triple Hyaluronic Acid keeps it hydrated, and the whole thing skips PEGs.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Efficacy: 8.5 / 10
- Modern Tech: 8.0 / 10
- Clean Beauty: 9.5 / 10
- Sustainability: 7.6 / 10
The Verdict
This is a rare hybrid that earns both its SPF 40 rating and its serum claim without compromise. The formula uses advanced mineral dispersion and a biomimetic lipid system to deliver broad-spectrum protection in a weightless, skin-like base. Niacinamide and multi-weight Hyaluronic Acid add real skincare function, while the PEG-free plant emulsifier formula keeps it aligned with modern clean standards. Worth it for anyone who wants high-factor mineral sun protection that doesn't feel like makeup.
