Note 20 Ultra is rated IP68.
IP: This stands for "Ingress Protection," the rating system used to describe the level of protection a phone has against water and dust.
6: The first number signifies the device's resistance to dirt and debris. The highest attainable score at the time of the Galaxy Note 20's release is a 6, which the Note 20 scored, indicating the phone is virtually dustproof. Samsung recommends you rinse out residue to avoid any issue.
8: The second number describes the phone's ability to remain functional when interacting with water (aka, water resistance). The highest score is a 9, although no phone has achieved this rating. The Galaxy Note 20 and 20 Ultra both received an 8, indicating they can be submerged up to 4.92 feet (1.5 meters) in fresh water for up to 30 minutes and emerge unharmed. Samsung recommends to let it air dry if it gets wet to avoid any problems.
Often there are two keywords overlooked when it comes to IP ratings, water-resistant and fresh water. The "8" classification means the phone will resist water damage — that is, it's not waterproof. Equally important is that the test is done in fresh water. Corrosive liquids such as saltwater, alcohol, chlorine, acetone, and other chemicals can still harm your phone even when submerged within its tested depth and duration.

I am not sure whether the makeup can damage the metal parts of the phone. Glass won't react with most of the chemicals.
