Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-16
What is this product?
A 50ml Korean mineral sunscreen at SPF50+ PA++++, filed as a UV-protection functional cosmetic, with zinc oxide as the only UV filter in a 36 entry list. The build is a shine-control build: a volatile silicone and branched ester base plus two spherical matting powders, methyl methacrylate crosspolymer and polymethylsilsesquioxane, with one humectant and no occlusive. The catch is tolerance: four essential oils sit in the table, no patch or irritation test appears on any surface read here, and the mandated suitability row still claims all skin types. Ingredient and statutory text here come from retail listings, because the brand's own site blocks automated reading.
What makes it different?
Two things. A single inorganic filter carrying a PA++++ grade with no organic filter anywhere in the list, which is the harder way to reach that rating. And a matting system built from two spherical polymers rather than from alcohol or clay, which is what lets the shine control coexist with an alcohol-free table.
What is in it?
The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.

Ingredients with no mark are ones we found nothing notable about, and when marks overlap on one ingredient we show the caution first.
