THANK YOU, UTU!

As a surf instructor, sunblock is more than just a singular part of my day... I'm constantly re-applying sunblocks and sunscreens. I use environmentally friendly formulas and packaging but it is nearly impossible to find a 100% plastic-free mineral-based sunscreen/sunblock UNTIL TODAY when my boss showed me UTU... I am hooked! Here's why... first, it's locally based out of Venice, CA. Second, the 20ml fits perfectly in my surf bag. Third, NO PLASTIC!!!! Fourth, it feels as if I'm putting on my fancy face lotion - no more thick white streaks that my hair sticks to with other brands. Thank you for making my days better with a 100% fabulous plastic-free sunscreen to protect me in the ocean and on the sand. Mahalo.

Protected and Free

I am forever on the hunt of a good sunblock that goes on smooth, light, and offers sun protection, while still allowing my skin to breathe. I prefer sunblocks to sunscreens because I want to be able to swipe it on and get on with my adventures. I am loving Utu for how it goes on smoothly without that trapped, sticky, feeling that most thick sunblocks leave, not to mention the weird sheen and inability to wipe it off completely when you’re out of the sun. Bonus: The ingredient list has the same stuff as all of my hydrating after sun care. I think I found the holy grail of sunscreen.

Utu SPF30 has it right

This product itself is amazing, especially the lotion form factor. The application is really clean and smooth, the no-scent is such a pleasant change from traditional screens. Didn’t feel like there was a film on my skin, rather that the lotion was “in” my skin. love.

Hero Ingredient

Non-Nano Zinz Oxide
Ever heard of non-nano zinc oxide? A true mineral sunscreen, non-nano zinc oxide is recognized by dermatologists as the most effective broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sun protection. And that’s not all…Antimicrobial and non-comedogenic, it can help reduce redness, and help your skin regain its balance.

Non-nano means the particles are too large to absorb into your skin, instead providing a physical barrier between your cells and the sun’s rays. Talk about performance suncare. 

Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid is well known as one of the most effective humectants, it helps retain moisture and keep the skin hydrated, plump, and supple. Additionally, it can help restore the skin's natural barrier function, which shields it from external aggressors. With daily use, hyaluronic acid can rejuvenate the skin's texture, leaving it looking radiant and glowing.

Squalane
Squalane is a non-comedogenic and lightweight oil that effectively hydrates and nourishes the skin. Its properties contribute to enhancing skin elasticity and brightening the complexion. Additionally, it contains anti-inflammatory and antibacterial benefits, which help soothe skin irritation and prevent breakouts.

Sea Buckthorn
Sea buckthorn is rich with antioxidants that help promote skin hydration, soothe irritated skin, and reduce redness. Its omega fatty acids nourish and protect the skin, helping to maintain a healthy and vibrant appearance. Moreover, sea buckthorn can also brighten the skin, even out skin tone, and improve its radiance.

Sesame Seed Oil
Sesame seed oil is rich in antioxidants and vitamins, has anti-inflammatory properties, can help protect the skin from harmful UV rays, and nourish it due to its high content of fatty acids.

Vitamin C& E
Vitamin C helps brighten the skin and improve its overall radiance by reducing the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation. It also can boost collagen production, which helps keep the skin firm and radiant, while also providing protection against environmental stressors such as UV rays.

Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that can help protect the skin against damage from free radicals. It also has anti-inflammatory properties.

Together, Vitamins C and E can work synergistically to provide even greater benefits for the skin, including protecting against sun damage, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promoting a brighter, more glowing complexion.

Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is a potent antioxidant that can help protect against sun damage, improve skin hydration, even out skin tone, and soothe and calm irritated skin. helping to keep the skin looking radiant, and healthy.
