General Information

NIVEA SUN Ultra Beach SPF50+ Sunscreen Spray offers protection from the sun's harmful UV rays while at the beach. Made with quality ingredients so your skin is protected and cared for while you're being active. Enjoy the sun with quality care using NIVEA!

NIVEA SUN Ultra Beach Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ offers protection from the sun's harmful UV rays while at the beach. At the beach, direct sun, heat and saltwater leaves the skin feeling dry and tight. Additionally, UV rays are reflected from the sand and water increasing exposure to the damaging effects of the sun.

All this whilst also offering 4 hours water resistance. Your skin will be protected against UVA / UVB induced skin damage and High Energy Visible Light effects such as premature skin aging. Made in Australia.

Sustainability Rating: Low

1. Homosalate


  • What it is: Homosalate is a chemical sunscreen agent that absorbs UVB radiation and is used in many sunscreens.
  • Sustainability:
    • Environmental Concerns: There is limited data on the environmental impact of homosalate, but like many sunscreen agents, it can have negative effects on marine ecosystems, especially coral reefs. Some sunscreen chemicals are known to contribute to coral bleaching, although homosalate is less scrutinized than ingredients like oxybenzone.
    • Biodegradability: Some reports suggest it has a moderate level of biodegradability, but its impact on aquatic life remains a concern.
    • Sustainable Alternatives: Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are more eco-friendly alternatives as they are mineral-based and have less negative impact on marine life.

2. Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone)


  • What it is: Avobenzone is a broad-spectrum sunscreen agent used to protect against UVA rays.
  • Sustainability:
    • Environmental Concerns: Like other chemical sunscreens, it has been associated with coral reef damage, although it is generally considered less harmful than some other chemical sunscreens like oxybenzone.
    • Biodegradability: Avobenzone is reported to be moderately biodegradable, but its long-term effects on aquatic environments are still being studied.
    • Sustainable Alternatives: Again, mineral-based sunscreens like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are considered more sustainable alternatives in terms of environmental safety.

3. Octocrylene


  • What it is: Octocrylene is a UV filter and stabilizer used in sunscreens and cosmetics.
  • Sustainability:
    • Environmental Concerns: Octocrylene has been linked to negative effects on coral reefs. It is known to accumulate in the environment and could contribute to marine pollution.
    • Biodegradability: There are concerns about its biodegradability, as it tends to persist in water systems.
    • Sustainable Alternatives: Alternatives such as zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are more environmentally friendly, especially for marine ecosystems.

4. Octyl Salicylate (Ethylhexyl Salicylate)


  • What it is: This is a UVB filter used in sunscreens and other skin products.
  • Sustainability:
    • Environmental Concerns: Similar to other chemical UV filters, there is some evidence that octyl salicylate can be harmful to marine life, particularly coral reefs.
    • Biodegradability: It is more biodegradable than some other sunscreen agents, but it can still contribute to pollution if not handled properly.
    • Sustainable Alternatives: Like with other sunscreens, mineral-based alternatives are preferred for sustainability.

5. Bemotrizinol (Tinosorb S)


  • What it is: Bemotrizinol is a broad-spectrum sunscreen agent that protects against both UVA and UVB rays.
  • Sustainability:
    • Environmental Concerns: Bemotrizinol is considered to be less harmful to the environment compared to other chemical filters. However, it still contributes to chemical pollution if not biodegradable in aquatic environments.
    • Biodegradability: The compound has moderate biodegradability, though its long-term impact on aquatic ecosystems is not fully understood.
    • Sustainable Alternatives: Mineral-based sunscreens are a more eco-friendly choice if protecting marine life is a priority.

6. Phenoxyethanol


  • What it is: Phenoxyethanol is a preservative used in many cosmetics and personal care products.
  • Sustainability:
    • Environmental Concerns: There are concerns about the environmental impact of phenoxyethanol, particularly regarding its potential toxicity to aquatic organisms. However, it is considered a safer alternative to parabens and formaldehyde donors.
    • Biodegradability: Phenoxyethanol has moderate biodegradability but can accumulate in aquatic systems, leading to pollution.
    • Sustainable Alternatives: Preservatives such as radish root ferment filtrate or natural preservatives like vitamin E or rosemary extract are considered more eco-friendly options.

7. Chlorphenesin


  • What it is: Chlorphenesin is a preservative often used in cosmetic formulations to prevent microbial contamination.
  • Sustainability:
    • Environmental Concerns: Like many preservatives, chlorphenesin can have negative environmental effects, particularly in aquatic environments. It is a synthetic chemical, and its long-term impact is not fully understood.
    • Biodegradability: Chlorphenesin has moderate biodegradability, but its presence in wastewater systems could lead to environmental concerns.
    • Sustainable Alternatives: As with phenoxyethanol, natural and plant-based preservatives like Leuconostoc ferment or honey are preferred sustainable alternatives.

Summary of Sustainability Considerations:


  • Marine Life Impact: Many of the ingredients listed (e.g., Homosalate, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Octocrylene, Octyl Salicylate) have been linked to coral reef damage and other harmful effects on marine ecosystems. The need for more environmentally friendly sunscreen ingredients is becoming a significant area of focus.
  • Biodegradability: While some ingredients have moderate biodegradability (Bemotrizinol, Phenoxyethanol), others persist in aquatic environments, which is a concern for ecosystems.
  • Sustainable Alternatives: Mineral-based ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are generally considered more sustainable as they are less harmful to the environment. Natural preservatives and plant-based alternatives are also preferable in terms of sustainability.
