Sourcing note: the ingredient list below is confirmed consistently between the official mywishcare.com site and an independent incidecoder.com entry, with no conflict found. Separately, the brand's own site states an in-vitro PA rating of "PA+++" in its cited lab-testing text, while the product's label/name states "SPF50 PA++++" -- this minor inconsistency in the brand's own copy is disclosed rather than resolved.
