Little Urchin FACE Light/Medium Tint Natural Sunscreen SPF 50+ 50g
Little Urchin FACE Light/Medium Tint Natural Sunscreen SPF 50+ combines high-level mineral sun protection with a lightweight tint and skin-conditioning ingredients. Designed for everyday facial use, this vegan sunscreen provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection while helping to even out the appearance of your complexion with a natural, radiant finish.
Formulated with non-nano zinc oxide, natural ceramides, pink algae extract, jojoba oil and vitamin E, it brings together sun protection and everyday skin care in one easy step. The light/medium tint blends into the skin to provide subtle colour and a soft, even finish without the heavy feel of traditional zinc sunscreens.
SPF 50+ Protection with a Natural Tint
Non-nano zinc oxide provides broad-spectrum SPF 50+ protection against UVA and UVB radiation. The addition of mineral pigments creates a light/medium tint that helps even out the appearance of skin tone, making this sunscreen a practical choice for anyone who prefers a natural-looking finish rather than wearing a separate foundation every day.
The lightweight, non-greasy formula spreads smoothly and leaves the skin with a soft, radiant glow. Wear it on its own for subtle everyday colour or incorporate it into your usual makeup routine.
Skin Care Ingredients for Everyday Hydration
Little Urchin FACE Tinted Sunscreen includes a selection of skin-conditioning ingredients to complement its mineral sun protection.
- Natural Ceramides: Help support the skin's moisture barrier and maintain hydration.
- Pink Algae Extract: An antioxidant-rich ingredient that helps condition the skin and protect against oxidative stress.
- Jojoba Oil: Helps soften and condition the skin for a smooth, comfortable finish.
- Vitamin E: Provides antioxidant benefits and helps condition the skin.
These ingredients make the sunscreen a convenient addition to a simple morning skin care routine, particularly for those who prefer a multitasking product that combines sun protection, hydration and a subtle tint.
Vegan, Fragrance-Free and Made in Australia
Little Urchin FACE Light/Medium Tint is vegan, fragrance-free and preservative-free. The formula is designed to be suitable for sensitive skin and contains no added fragrance or organic chemical UV filters.
Australian made and owned, this tinted mineral sunscreen is also water resistant for up to 2 hours. Its convenient 50g size makes it easy to keep in your handbag or everyday essentials for reapplication throughout the day.
For effective sun protection, apply generously and reapply regularly. Always combine sunscreen with protective clothing, a hat, sunglasses and shade.

How to Use Little Urchin FACE Tinted Sunscreen

- Allow the sunscreen to settle before applying any additional makeup.
- Reapply every 1–2 hours, or more frequently when perspiring. Always reapply after swimming or towel drying.
Important: Avoid contact with eyes. Do not use on broken, damaged or diseased skin. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. For external use only. Do not use if the seal is broken.
Always wear protective clothing, including a hat and sunglasses, and avoid prolonged sun exposure even when using sunscreen. Keep babies and children out of direct sunlight.

Yes. Little Urchin FACE Light/Medium Tint SPF 50+ is water resistant for up to 2 hours. Reapply every 1–2 hours, or more frequently when perspiring, and always after swimming or towel drying. Water resistance does not eliminate the need for regular reapplication or other sun protection measures.
Can I wear Little Urchin FACE Tinted Sunscreen under makeup?
Yes. Little Urchin FACE Tinted Sunscreen can be incorporated into your usual makeup routine.
