Product Description
N'Pure Cica Beat The Sun SPF 50+ PA++++ is a daily sun protection with SPF 50 PA ++++ that is formulated with 100% Natural Cica Leaf Water, Chrysanthemum Extract, Chamomile Extract, and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract. This sun cream contains 5 types of UV filter that protects skin against UVA & UVB rays while moisturizing and soothing the skin.
I purchased N'Pure Cica Beat The Sun SPF 50+ PA++++ together with N’pure Cica Beat The Sun Powder, The Aubree Artemisia Daily Sunscreen SPF 50 PA++++, Rated Green Avocado Nourishing Scalp Pack, Clinelle PureSwiss Hydracalm Caring Milk Cleanser and Rosé All Day's Butter Be Gone Cleansing Balm during my Batam trip.
When it comes to anti-aging, sunscreen is the ultimate secret weapon. Dermatologists worldwide agree that daily sun protection is the #1 anti-aging tip because UV exposure is the leading cause of premature wrinkles, dark spots, and loss of skin elasticity. By shielding your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays, sunscreen helps maintain a youthful, even-toned complexion.
Here's my last few emptied sunscreens - Herbloom Calming Days Vegan Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++, Skin1004 Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum and Illiyoon Mild Easy Wash Sun Cream.
Packaging, Scent and Texture
N'Pure Cica Beat The Sun SPF 50+ PA++++ is housed in a 35ml green tube with a minimalistic vibe. I like products with such nozzle tip dispenser which can be found in products such as Celimax Dual Barrier Skin Wearable Cream, Axis-Y Heartleaf My-Type Calming Cream and Axis-y Complete No-Stress Physical Sunscreen.
It makes dispensing the runny lotion-like texture so effortlessly without any mess. I didn't like the milky sunscreen scent though, but thankfully, it wasn't overpowering. There is no fragrance and alcohol added to the formulation.
How To Use :
1) Apply evenly on the face and neck 30 minutes before doing activities.
2) Reapply if needed, or doing outdoor activities for long periods of time.
Performance and Ingredients
Formulated with natural Cica Leaf Water, Chrysanthemum Extract, Chamomile Extract and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, this sunscreen protects skin against UVA and UVB rays while moisturizing skin. It is also hypoallergenic tested and dermatologically tested.
During my first application, I developed 3 zits ( temple, above the lips and chin ) on the following morning, which surprised me greatly. I skipped using the product for a month and returned to using it, and thankfully, no such issue occurred.
I really like the light texture, how it spreads so easily, and sinks into skin fast with a cooling sensation but unfortunately, it left a a greasy shine on my face akin to SOLYPH Face The Wild Sun Cream on my combination skin with surface dehydration, residing in humid climate. A light dusting of powder helped to minimize the shine.
In terms of ingredients, N'Pure Cica Beat The Sun SPF 50+ PA++++ contains the following 5 UV Filters...
Butyloctyl Salicylate : Helps to increase the SPF rating and enhance the stability of other UV filters like Oxybenzone and Avobenzone. It is not reef-safe. Currently not registered as a sunscreen active yet.
Said to be the modified version of the chemical UV filter Octisalate which was created intentionally by the sunscreen industry to avoid having Octislate on the ingredient listing as a declared active and used by formulators to disguise the presence of a ‘chemical’ UV filter in mineral sunscreen formulas. It is also used to reduce the amount of inorganic mineral filters needed to get a desired labelled SPF and PPD rating. (source)
Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate : A new generation, chemical sunscreen agent with high UVA protection and high photostability. Also known as Uvinul A Plus.
Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine : A broad-spectrum ( full UVA and UVB protection ) chemical sunscreen agent which is also known as Tinosorb S. Hardly deteriorates in the presence of UV.
Isoamyl p-Methoxycinnamate : A chemical sunscreen agent with UVB protection. Also known as Amiloxate.
Polysilicone-15 : A chemical sunscreen agent with UVB protection. It also help to stabilize the famously unstable UVA filter, avobenzone and works especially well with Ensulizole to achieve high SPF protection. Also known as Parsol SLX.

Conclusion
To conclude, N'Pure Cica Beat The Sun SPF 50+ PA++++ has been a good experience. I genuinely enjoy the light, fast-absorbing texture that glides on effortlessly with a refreshing cooling sensation. However, it does leave a noticeable greasy shine on my combination skin with surface dehydration—especially in a humid climate. A light dusting of powder helped control the shine.
The nozzle tip dispenser is a highlight—it makes dispensing the runny, lotion-like formula clean and easy. I wasn’t a fan of the typical milky sunscreen scent, though it wasn’t overwhelming. On the plus side, the formulation is free from added fragrance and alcohol.
