The verdict
Aussie SPF that earns the premium.
Ultra Violette's pitch — Australian-made SPF that doesn't feel like sunscreen — is genuinely delivered. Queen Screen is the tinted hydrating SPF that outperforms most brands at any price. Supreme Screen is the daily-wear serum texture. The brand has real Australian operator depth and formulation chops. Pricing is premium ($45–$60) but the experience matches. The AU SPF brand to build a routine around.
What they do right
- Queen Screen is category-leading tinted SPF
- Genuinely Aussie-made + Aussie-formulated
- Serum-grade textures
- No white cast on medium-to-dark skin
What to know
- Premium pricing vs La Roche-Posay
- Range can be confusing (similar product names)
