Last year we reviewed some Ultrasun products which we were really delighted with and this year there are five new additions to the range.
For testing we had Hand 30SPF Anti-pigmentation and Face Tinted – now available in the higher SPF 50 in a choice of two shades: Ivory (fair/light) or Honey (medium/dark).
The Hand 30SPF Anti-pigmentation offers targeted protection the hands with powerful anti-ageing ingredients. A sun protection and daily hand treatment in one that results in a visible brightening of existing pigmentation in just 14 days. As with all Ultrasun formulas this product contains the latest infrared technology, delivering broad spectrum defence for the skin.
It is water resistant and free from perfume, mineral oils, emulsifiers and silicones. Available in 75ml: £18.00
I found this good to use but haven’t done so long enough to test the 14 day claim. Also I like to use hand cream more often – in or out of the sun.

Face 50+SPF Tinted – now available in a higher SPF and a choice of two shades. Ivory (fair/light) or Honey (medium/dark) – contains Ectoin, a revolutionary and rare natural enzyme that protects the skin from the effects of UVA-induced damage and premature photo ageing. This easy-to-apply, once-a-day, anti-ageing moisturiser can be used in place of your normal day cream and is formulated with a hint of colour, in two shades for the perfect finish whatever your skin tone.
Available in 50ml: £26.00 I liked using this but was sent the Ivory shade, which was far too light for me and actually made me look paler. However it totally protected my face from the hot Kephalonian sun with one application so I would definitely try the Honey shade next.
