System Verdict
Strong UV protection, but this is basically a silicone-tinted sunscreen with some fragrance baggage—not a treatment product. The efficacy score is driven by a robust multi-filter system with both mineral and modern organic UV filters plus iron oxides for tint/visible-light support; the score is capped because the “extra” botanicals/antioxidants are secondary, and the fragranced base slightly hurts the safety profile without improving sun protection.
