Excellent! Best suncream I've used.
After a lot of research I decided to buy this suncream. My dad is badly allergic to an ingredient called butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane / avobenzone and exposure to this chemical has meant he has been admitted to hospital several times. Even if he's downwind from someone spraying sunscreen with this chemical he swells up and is seriously ill so it was vitally important that I get a safe sunscreen without this ingredient. Not only this, butyl methoxybenzoylmethane is toxic and repeated use stops the skin's natural protection against the sun, causing ageing and skin cancer. (Why this ingredient is still allowed into products I don't know! It must be cheap and profitable to use!) So even though I'm not personally allergic to it, I wanted to buy a suncream that was as safe as possible and won't cause long-term damage to my skin. Ultrasun is a really great cream. I wish I'd found it before. It doesn't leave a sticky residue and sinks into the skin like a really good moisturiser. My dad did a test patch and he had no reaction to it at all. I'm very happy with this brand and as long as they don't add butyl methoxybenzoylmethane / avobenzone then I will continue to buy this product and recommend it to family and friends. Another great benefit of this suncream is that it seems to stop prickly heat. Sun exposure irritates my skin and over the years I've just come to expect that I'll end up with prickly heat at some point in summer. But with this suncream my skin has been fine and there's no sign of any irritation. Highly recommended.

Best all round sun cream
This is hands down the best sun cream we have ever used. The whole family can use it, it’s great even for sensitive skin and we have never burned whilst using this (usually apply 2-3 times throughout the day).A little goes a long way. It absorbs quickly and leaves no trace. Just make sure you wash it off really well at the end of the day - it can be a bit stubborn (which I view as a good thing).We’ve also tried the sports version (a gel that smells like hand sanitiser and feels quite oily when you apply it but it’s actually brilliant and provides excellent protection), as well as the tan enhancing one (which is basically just the same as this product…!).Would highly recommend - get the larger pump bottle, you’ll not regret it!

Very good…feels more like factor 50 though
I have very sensitive skin, and normal sun creams bring me out in tiny blisters that eventually peel and become quite sore. Even just a bit causes me problems. So, I was quite amazed that this did not cause me any problems at all, and not only that, it kept me milk bottle white after a week in Greece.If you are sensitive to the usual sun creams, this is worth a look, but keep in mind that it doesn’t seem to let anything through, despite being a factor 30.

Excellent for sufferers of sensitive skin.
I suffer with Rosacea, and using suncream can makes it worse, because of the perfumes and ingredients. Ultra sun, gives me full protection, Without any stinging, or causing my skin to break out. I even have a tan now, which I’ve never managed to get before because I would have to stay out of the sun. Now, I put Ultra sun on, 15/20 minutes before going out and don’t Reapply unless it has been particularly hot and I have sweat a lot. I never burn, and as importantly for me, my Rosacea doesn’t rear it’s ugly head. I highly recommend Ultra sun to anyone with sensitive skin. It has taken me years to find a sun cream that doesn’t make my skin sting or breakout. Thank goodness for Ultra sun. My question to the manufacturers is, do you do a spray for my hair parting. I would buy that along side the cream. Great product.

Why use anything else
Originally it was recommended to mr by Sunsail. We used it whilst sailing in Turkey and many other hot places. Works all day. I would never use anything else.

Suffer Prickly Heat? This Stuff is Brilliant!
I’ve suffered terrible prickly heat for around 15 years, can’t even sit in the UK sun for longer than half an hour. I bought this suncream and the after sun for a holiday in the Caribbean. I can honestly say that this stuff is fantastic!!! Not a bit of prickly heat after 14 days in the sun, I was able to fully enjoy my holiday without the awful suffering and funny looks, and came back with a cracking tan!!

Excellent sunscreen
I am very fair skinned and this sun screen works well for me. It does not block my pores like some others. It quickly sinks in to skin. It does not smell offensive. It lasts all day. Just returned from a cruise around Caribbean, Panama & Columbia without any sun burn.
