Ultrasun 20 glimmer formula, 11 July 2010

I live in Spain and have fair skin so it's important that I can rely on a good sun cream. I have never burnt while using this product, it is brilliant. Just put plenty on in the morning and forget about it for the rest of the day. It is quite expensive but well worth it, however if you can get hold of the bottles with an extra 50% it makes it really good value. As a point of interest, I used to use the Ultrasun P20 which is like an oil and works equally well but it does stain clothes, bedding and towels badly, leaving brown marks over everything. The Ultrasun 20 Glimmer does not stain.Thumbs up for this product, I never use anything else.

Beautifully glimmery & incredibly flattering - mix it with the SPF50 for more protection, 25 Aug. 2015

I love this stuff! Its very glimmery (as opposed to glittery) & I add it to my usual SPF50 Ultrasun (about 1 pump to 3 of the normal Ultrasun) which gives a beautiful sheen - very, very flattering on my skin (knocks about 5 years off, I think!). Its only an SPF 20 & has so much glimmer, so I dont use it as my main sunblock - but I wouldnt be without it.

Ultrasun is Swiss, & fantastic quality, far superior to most (theres only one other I will use on my body, also Swiss), & I am devoted to their SPF 50 one (combined with this). Ive used it in Greece, Brazil, New Zealand & Australia & have never once been burnt or even caught any sun at all. Like the others the texture is perfect, light, sinks in easily & isnt greasy - but most importantly it has real staying power & a fantastic all empossing block, including blocking out those nasty UVB rays which wont tan you, & are present even on cloudy days & are a huge contributor for skin aging. It does feel a little sticky at first, but...
