The US Food and Drug Administration approved BEMT in June 2026, the first new US sunscreen filter in 27 years. - It is a tinted, soft-matte cream sold in an airless jar. ## Filters and Formula Ultra Violette describes bemotrizinol as a next-generation filter that gives gentle, efficient broad-spectrum protection and leaves more space in the formula for skincare actives. Its US site adds that this means "no stinging eyes." The UK and Australian ingredient lists give the zinc oxide as nano. Two plant-derived extracts handle the skincare side: - **Bix'Activ®:** according to the brand, it helps control excess oil and blurs the look of pores. - **Pentavitin:** the brand says it keeps skin hydrated for up to 72 hours. A subtle tint made with iron oxides is designed to reduce zinc's white cast; Ultra Violette says it gives a seamless finish on most skin tones. The brand describes the texture as lightweight and non-greasy, drying to a velvety cream-to-powder matte. According to Ultra Violette, the formula is: - non-comedogenic and non-acnegenic, and passes leading acne-safe ingredient checkers - fragrance-free - dermatologically and clinically tested - suitable for sensitive skin The label notes that it contains phenoxyethanol, benzyl alcohol and sodium metabisulfite. Ultra Violette co-founder Bec Jefferd told Marie Claire the brand has been developing BEMT products for its global range for close to 10 years. A second BEMT SPF, Fave Screen, is planned for January, and Marie Claire reports it will have a glowy finish. ## What the Brand Says About Testing Ultra Violette ran a dermatologist-supervised clinical evaluation with 21 people, including people with oily, sensitive and acne-prone skin. The brand reports these results after 28 days of daily use: - **95%** saw a reduction in the number of non-inflammatory blemishes. - **86%** agreed it blurs skin and visibly evens the look of skin tone and texture. - **90%** said their skin did not look oilier or shinier after use. The brand also says the formula reduced non-inflammatory blemishes by up to 60% and blackheads by up to 65%, based on average reductions in the study group. Unblock Screen is made and tested in Australia (AUST L 528472). Ultra Violette says: - every new formula goes through at least two, and in many cases three to five, rounds of independent SPF and UVA testing at different laboratories before launch - testing uses products taken straight off the shelf - it retests its range every 18 months, and every result has come back at or above the labelled SPF - many of its labs use BIPEA accreditation, and it works with SunCert for extra independent review ## How It Compares with Ultra Violette's Other SPFs - **Future Screen:** a mineral SPF fluid for combination, sensitive and oily skin, with a natural, skin-perfected finish - **Velvet Screen:** a mineral cream the brand positions for sensitive or reactive skin, with a blurred finish - **Unblock Screen:** made for oily, breakout-prone skin, with a soft-matte finish It is one of several skincare launches from the same week. That week also brought [Caroline Hirons The Collagen Support Kit](https://beauty-talk.club/posts/2348-caroline-hirons-collagen-support-kit) on 30 September 2026.

The brand recommends wearing it every day, including indoors. It also advises reapplying often and adding a hat, sunglasses and protective clothing in the sun. ## Sources - [Ultra Violette Australia product page](https://ultraviolette.com.au/products/unblock-screen-50ml) - [Ultra Violette UK product page](https://www.ultraviolette.co.uk/products/unblock-screen-50ml) - [Ultra Violette US product page](https://ultraviolettespf.com/products/unblock-screen-50ml) - Marie Claire US launch report
