System Verdict
Solid daily sunscreen with excellent photostable filters and antioxidants, but hampered by high alcohol denat. content risking irritation and dryness. Efficacy score of 4.7 reflects top-tier photostable chemical filters (Tinosorb S/M, Uvinul A Plus) covering full UVA/UVB/HEVIS spectrum without octocrylene, plus synergistic Licochalcone A for free radical neutralization; minor deduction for avobenzone's partial photostability stabilized by others and basic hydration lacking advanced encapsulation. Safety docked to 4.0 due to prominent Alcohol Denat. (third position) which can dehydrate and irritate sensitive skin despite hydro-complex.
