This product is a finalist in the category Make Up Formula of Cosmopack 2026
Product Description (No Prototypes accepted)
Integral to TJ Enterprise’s sun-protecting skin tint is a self-healing mesh formed from five layers of microspheres, which delivers sun protection that reconnects dynamically whenever gaps occur. The formula contains no film formers, so it doesn’t feel sticky or clog pores, while the air gaps between the microspheres allow for breathability. Alongside this, the sunscreen offers 377nm frequency protection to block the most harmful UVA rays. Meanwhile, its sebum-mimicking oils keep the SPF above 500, even after eight hours in water, while the mineral powders are treated with two coatings: an inner coating to maximize color pay-off and adhesion and prevent cakiness, and an outer coating for a fine texture. And the sunscreen-in-water-in-oil-in-water-in-powder formulation allows for a sensorial effect while offering blendability. Also among the ingredients are upcycled dandelions from which biomimetic endophytes are extracted, to provide the 64% natural formula’s anti-photo-aging actives Lactobacillus and taraxasterol.

Product Innovation
5-layer microspheres forming a self-healing mesh :
-Encapsulate SPF 500 sunscreen with natural powders.
-Reconnect themselves dynamically when gaps occur.
-No film formers.
-Round shape allows for air gaps, thus breathable.
SPF 500 broad spectrum sunscreen :
-Gapless protection from UVB, UVA, to blue light.
-Achieves breakthrough 377nm critical wavelength.
“Sunscreen-in-Water-in-Oil-in-Water-in-Powder” technology :

Claims & Benefits
-With the self-healing microsphere mesh, the makeup look and UV protection remain uniform and intact for a long time.
-No film formers, therefore drastically reducing stickiness and pore-clogging.
-Air gaps between spheres allows for better breathability.
-Powerful gapless sunscreen with 377nm critical wavelength blocks the most harmful Deep UVA, hence stronger and safer protection.
-Sebum-mimicking oils keeps SPF above 500 even after submerged in water for 8 hours.
-Mineral powders treated with dual coatings : The inner coating maximizes pay-off and adhesion to prevent cakey look; the outer maximizes powder smoothness to deliver a luxurious fine texture like cotton fluff.
-“Sunscreen-in-Water-in-Oil-in-Water-in-Powder” technology enables a fun "water to oil to powder" texture change and remarkably increases blendability for a natural glowy look.

Research, Clinical Tests & Trials Results (Safety & Dermatological)
(1) IN-VITRO SCRATCH RESISTANCE TEST :
Test Method : Apply 2 grams of the skin tint uniformly on 1 subject’s face.
Test Procedure : Scrape the skin surface to create a 3cm-long visible slit to create a visible gap on the coverage, exposing the skin. Based on photographic record.
Test Period : Stand at room temperature for 1 minute. Compare before and after photographic results.
Result :
After 1 minute, the slit is closed and the uniform coverage is returned.

Packaging Materials
List of materials:
-Cap and dispenser : PET
-Bottle : Glass
Glass offers superior recyclability. Its inertness is highly stable without chemical leaching. It also offers a premium feel.
PET is easy to recycle and highly circular. It can be recycled multiple times to create new bottles, reducing the need for virgin plastic derived from fossil fuels.
The eye-catchy round cap evokes the image of a sphere, representing a visual manifestation of the microsphere concept of the formula.
