What is this product?

A high-protection mineral-hybrid sun cushion whose formula leads with centella and houttuynia cordata extracts, making it a reasonable pick for soothing care alongside SPF50+/PA++++. Note that ethanol sits early in the list, which may matter for very alcohol-sensitive skin.

What makes it different?

The first two ingredients are Centella Asiatica Extract and Houttuynia Cordata Extract, a soothing-first opening unusual for a sun cushion. Niacinamide sits at position 10, while panthenol, ceramide NP, adenosine and multiple hyaluronic acid forms appear in the mid-to-late half of the list. The formula uses four UV filters including titanium dioxide and ethylhexyl triazone for broad-spectrum SPF50+/PA++++ coverage. No fragrance ingredient was found in the 88-item list, though lavender flower water and several herb extracts are present.
