Filter TypeMineral-hybrid (oxides + filter blend)

Skin1004 Centella SPF 50+ PA++++ is a tinted mineral-hybrid sunscreen (50ml, $16.99) formulated with Madagascar centella, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide. It combines mineral (oxide) filters with a tinted moisturizer finish, marketed for zero white cast across skin tones. The product sits at the intersection of K-beauty innovation (centella focus) and tinted sunscreen convenience, positioning itself for daily face and body use. Community response is measured: praised for its lightweight texture and value per ml (~$0.34), but less iconic than market-leading Relief Sun or Round Lab alternatives. Fragrance-free and generally well-tolerated, though reviews note occasional pilling under certain moisturizers and inconsistent tint match across shade ranges. Strong for budget-conscious shoppers seeking a hybrid filter with skincare actives, but not yet a category benchmark.
