The swiss sun care brand Ultrasun came out with an SPF 50 PA++++ face mist.

They claim this is a transparent, water resistant mist that protects the skin and stays matte for 6h. It is fragrance free, alcohol free and is designed to not irritate the eyes.

They also claim it protects from blue light, infrared and pollution.

I am looking for the INCI list as this claims to have 0 chemical filters which surprised me….

EDIT

Found the INCI list:

Butane, Aqua, Isobutane, Diethylhexyl Adipate, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Undecane, Polyglyceryl-4 Diisostearate Polyhydroxystearate Sebacate, Glycerin, Acrylates C12-22 Alkyl Methacrylate Copolymer, Caprylic Capric Triglyceride, Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone, Hydrogenated Polydecene, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene,Tridecane, Dibutyl Adipate, Hydrogenated Poly (C6-14 Olefin), Polyglyceryl-3 Oleate, Ethylhexyl Triazone, Maltodextrin, Phenoxyethanol, Diisostearoyl Polyglyceryl-3 Dimer Dilinoleate, Saccharide Isomerate, Arginine, Coco-Glucoside, Citric Acid, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium Lauryl Sulfosuccinate, Caesalpinia Spinosa Fruit Pod Extract, DisodiumEDTA, Sodium Citrate, Helianthus Annuus Sprout Extract, Tocopherol,Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil

After the mineral sunscreen spf 50 from ultrasun made me look like a corpse, I'm a bit sceptical of the brand overall. It also promised to be 'invisible'. I have a very light skin color, but that sunscreen still made me look purple🙄

Lmao this is petty af but the fact that they included "PA++++" when they already have the UVA circle irks the sh*t out of me

I think they are aiming this very much for the Asian market where anti-pollution SPF mists are popular. In addition, I do not doubt the existence of numerous consumers who believe “PA four pluses is the highest UVA protection you can get”. So I understand why they do it. Even La Roche Posay caved in to the PA trend on their newest packaging. And finally this is not 50+ so the UVA in a circle logo could be equal to the PA+++ in this case.

Wow, you keep finding these new sunscreens!! I'm always happy to see new ones. I spend time searching and reading up on sunscreens and filters everyday, but you blow me out of the water with your skills, haha.

I was just looking at their website and social media a few days ago, and this was not listed. The only product listed as 'new' was a hand SPF. Perhaps this mist will be an Asian exclusive.

Ultrasun is brilliant. I won’t use anything else anymore. It lasts for so long. Have never burned with this on.

It’s expensive though.

Has this product been thoroughly tested or could this be another Purito situation?

Aww I really should start appreciating more where I live! I'm often jealous of people living in america and their skincare-products.

If I can get the face mist I'll definetly review it here! But it's quite strange since the official swiss website doesn't list or advertise this product. Maybe it is targeted to the asian market?

Maybe it will take more time. I really don’t think there’s much to be jealous of from the US and of course not sunscreens.

Thanks for sharing!

Ultrasun is one of my fav brand, although their SPFs aren't affordable.

*ehem*, "transparent", "matte", rightssss, we know how those claims usually go haha!

Hopefully we can find the INCI list somewhere (*trying*)

2
_stav_OP•

Yes we all know these claims are contradictory. It will either be matte and whitening or transparent and shiny.

“Matte” but “Transparent”
“Light as air” but “High density”
“Skin will breath” but “Film Forming”
“Water resistant” but “Hydrating”

They’re definitely promising a lot

Ok Lab Muffin Beauty said she found some reports of people testing the Ultrasun face fluid who noticed that the UV protection was really streaky, so I haven’t looked into the brand since. Have any of y’all heard about this?

_stav_OP•

Where and when did she say that???

1
DazzlingCrema•

I think it was in the comments of an Instagram post late last year. Maybe the one where she showed the Mecca and EVY sunscreen for the first time?

_stav_OP•

All she is saying is “from memory the ULTRASUN didnt fare well in a consumer magazine test”. So very vague and unconfirmed. I don’t know. Never heard that elsewhere. I know what she is saying. Maybe the Chinese test on the back of a person. There was an Ultrsaun sunscreen on that test and it did not get a star.

DazzlingCrema•

Ohh ok yeah it was from a really long time ago so I don’t remember much of what she said.

Can this go over makeup?

This is still not published on their website but I am pretty sure it is desgned to be used over makeup too.
