Swedish Suncare Brand Gun Ana Arrives in the UK

Swedish suncare brand Gun Ana, celebrated for its effective, luxurious, multifunctional formulas, has landed in the UK.

Founded in 2020 by skincare enthusiasts Sigrid Osvald and Kajsa Regnér, Gun Ana was created to redefine our relationship with sun protection and advocate for year-round defence. Inspired by the ancient sun goddess of the same name, the brand emphasises the harmonious connection between sun and earth, reflected in its commitment to both skin and environmental health.

Gun Ana’s products transcend protection, with water-resistant formulations created with premium Scandinavian botanical extracts and other active ingredients to keep skin balanced, nourished, and hydrated throughout the day. Think luxurious sun protection that doubles as a potent skincare regime.

The brand launches with a curated range of six skincare essentials for face and body, including the Protective Face Mist, UV Body Mist in SPF 30 and 50, Face Cream SPF 50, and UV Stick.

The Protective Face Mist goes beyond sun protection, offering HEV-light and pollution protection in a convenient mist. A potent blend of low molecular hyaluronic acid and tremella mushroom extract hydrate and plump skin for a dewy, youthful glow. Birch extract and niacinamide soothe and refine the complexion for flawless radiant finish. A touch of green galia adds a lingering, sophisticated scent.

The UV Body Mist comes in SPF 30 and SPF 50 for customisable protection. Like all Gun Ana SPF products, this lightweight, oil-based mist utilises a modern chemical filter system for broad spectrum UVA and UVB defence without the white cast or thick, greasy feel. Nourishing oat, wheat germ, and rose-hip oils provides hydration, keeps skin balanced, and reduces the signs of ageing and sun damage.

The Face Cream SPF 50 offers a luxurious yet lightweight solution for daily use. Its silky-smooth formula strengthens and hydrates the skin with nourishing oat, wheat germ, and rose-hip oils. Hyaluronic acid plumps the skin, and vitamin E fends off free radical damage.

A suncare must-have, the UV Stick SPF 50 is perfect for on-the-go application and reapplication. Formulated with a base of shea butter and carnauba wax, it nourishes the skin while vitamin E and ceramides strengthen the barrier function and protect against free radicals. This solid formula is suitable for all skin types and tones, making it a travel-friendly essential.

Gun Ana goes beyond industry standards with its commitment to premium, sustainable practices that underlines the brand’s ethos of protection, innovation, and environmental stewardship. All products are free from silicones, acrylates, parabens, microplastics, mineral oils, sulfates, and synthetic colourants. Additionally, they are vegan, cruelty-free, and formulated without homosalate, octinoxate, oxybenzone, and benzophenone—all filters known to harm sea life.

Gun Ana is available at cultbeauty.co.uk and skindays.com. Both UK and US customers can purchase the brand at gun-ana.com, with prices ranging from £18 to £40 ($15 to $39).
