by365 Sunscreen Using Diaper Technology: Renewal & New UV Gel Explained

---

A popular sunscreen formulated with the superabsorbent polymer used in diapers (Sodium Acrylates Crosspolymer-2), which absorbs sweat and sebum to keep skin smooth and matte.

• Now fragrance-free: Previously, only the tone-up version was fragrance-free, while the clear type had a linen scent. In response to user feedback, the clear type was renewed at lightning speed to be "fragrance-free" as well.
• Gentle formulation: Despite being SPF50+ / PA++++ with a UV water resistance rating of ★★, it is free of UV scattering agents (zinc oxide-free and titanium dioxide-free), as well as alcohol (ethanol)-free and glycerin-free.
• Low risk of staining clothes: It contains no ingredients that tend to cause yellowing and leaves no white cast, so it is less likely to transfer onto clothing.
• Difference from the tone-up type: The tone-up version contains titanium dioxide and offers stronger protection against blue light and long UVA, but the regular version is the best choice for those who prioritize ease of use or prefer a clear formula.

A new gel with a fresh, watery texture, completed after more than 100 rounds of formulation development.

• Finish and ingredient profile: SPF50+ / PA++++, clear, fragrance-free, and zinc oxide-free. It also contains the diaper powder.
• Caution (contains alcohol): Ethanol is included as a base ingredient to achieve the gel's smooth, silky feel. While the strong stinging typical of inexpensive sunscreens is kept in check, those with sensitive skin who react to alcohol are better off choosing the cream type.

Of all three products, the most recommended is the newly fragrance-free "Powdery UV Cream (Clear Type)". Zinc oxide-free, glycerin-free, alcohol-free, and fragrance-free, it is highly rated as an affordable sunscreen that checks all the boxes for sensitive skin.
