Performance Scores
SPF Level
Fair
SPF Level
The manufacturer claims an SPF 30, which is structurally supported by the inclusion of highly concentrated mineral filters Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide.
Broad Spectrum
Excellent
Broad Spectrum
Zinc Oxide delivers continuous absorption extending up to 400 nm (UVA I), overlapping effectively with Titanium Dioxide's peak coverage between 280 nm and 350 nm.
Sweat Resistance
Poor
Sweat Resistance
The presence of Acrylates/Vinyl Isodecanoate Crosspolymer provides basic film-forming capabilities, but without rigorous standardized testing claims, real-world aquatic durability is considered minimal.
Photo Stability
Excellent
Photo Stability
Both Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide are inorganic physical UV filters known in cosmetic photobiology to maintain absolute structural integrity under UV exposure.
Visible Light
Poor
Visible Light
There is a complete absence of iron oxide colour indices (such as CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499) or pigmentary-grade minerals in the provided ingredient list.
Irritation Risk
Low Risk
Irritation Risk
Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are universally non-irritating physical filters, while coconut oil and cocoa butter are well-documented comedogenic agents.
Pore Clogging
High Risk
Pore Clogging
Dermatological reference scales (e.g., Fulton) consistently rate coconut oil and cocoa butter as 4 out of 5 for comedogenicity based on clinical microcomedone and rabbit ear assays.
White Cast
High Risk
White Cast
Non-micronized mineral filters at high formulation percentages without tinting agents (iron oxides) consistently produce visible white reflectance on Fitzpatrick III-VI skin.
Ingredients Analysis
Active Filters
Titanium Dioxide UVB / UVA II
Classified as a possible human carcinogen if inhaled making spray and powder formulations a potential risk while dermal application remains safe
Key Inactive Ingredients
Coconut Oil Emollient
Widely recognized as highly comedogenic meaning it can easily clog pores and exacerbate breakouts in oily skin types.
Stearic Acid Skin Conditioning
It has a mildly comedogenic rating and can potentially clog pores or exacerbate breakouts in individuals with very oily or acne-prone skin [2.1].
Cocoa Seed Butter Emollient
Cocoa butter is highly occlusive and has been clinically demonstrated to increase microcomedones, meaning it can clog pores and exacerbate acne in prone individuals.
Cithrol Emulsifier
Certain grades under the Cithrol trade name, such as Cithrol 10GTIS (PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate), are ethoxylated and may contain trace amounts of 1,4-dioxane as a manufacturing byproduct [1].
Acrylates/Vinyl Isodecanoate Crosspolymer Film Former
May contain trace amounts of residual monomers or benzene depending on the manufacturing process although safety guidelines restrict these impurities.
Sodium Benzoate Preservative

Potassium Sorbate Preservative
Considered a rare skin sensitizer, it may occasionally cause mild allergic contact dermatitis or irritation, particularly on damaged or compromised skin [1.8].
Calendula Flower Extract Skin Conditioning
Generally well-tolerated, but can rarely trigger allergic contact dermatitis in individuals with a known cross-sensitivity to plants in the Asteraceae/Compositae (daisy or ragweed) family.
Milk Other
Topical application of milk proteins can trigger allergic contact dermatitis or immediate hypersensitivity reactions in individuals with severe bovine milk allergies, particularly on compromised skin.
