**Due to supply chain challenges, and to avoid any potential out-of-stock this product may have a frosted clear overcap without the silver band as a temporary option.

EltaMD intentionally overfills items with airless pumps in anticipation that a small amount may leak in transit, especially in hot weather and/or during air travel. They do this in order to make sure that the entire amount of product is in the jar, even if a small amount leaks. For this reason, these items actually contain slightly more product than advertised before they are shipped to ensure the customer still receives an item with the appropriate amount of product.

This product is packaged with an airless pump dispenser, which uses a vacuum system to dispense the product. Please see this product's directions for further information on airless pumps.

The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends this product as an effective aid in the prevention of sun-induced damage to the skin, including sunburn and possibly premature aging. When used regularly in the prescribed manner, this product may also help reduce the potential risk of skin cancer due to overexposure to sunlight.

Great Suncreen

I really like this sunscreen. It doesn't really leave a smell and its texture isn't too bad after it dries.

My non-negotiable!

I have been using Elta MD UV Clear 46 SPF for many months! It doesn't let me down and I've not been tempted to try another product! I have it on subscription and I get nervous if I run out of this product. It is light enough that it doesn't disrupt my makeup, actually looks better! It is hydrating and provides sun protection with no concerns. I can't see myself without this product! It also arrives quickly!

Granddaughter and Granddaughter Love EltaMD

At 73, I still need to prevent blemishes and clogged pours. I’ve used EltaMD sunscreen for years, and don’t have to worry about either. I gifted my adult granddaughter, who lives in Hawaii and is an out door runner, with EltaMD. She loves the protection, the tint, and how it feels on her typically dry skin (no irritation). Highly recommend.

Best tinted sunscreen

My hubby said this has too much tint for him but I found it perfect. Goes on very smoothly...leaves a slight golden tint. Perfect spf for everyday. I don't use foundation or other day creams now. This is all that needed

The best sunscreen!

This sunscreen did not peel on me like most sunscreens. Smell was not overwhelming and did NOT sting my eyes. I’ve tried many sunscreens and I always go back to this one! I love the protection it gives me and it makes my skin in all nice and smooth! Definitely recommend!

A transforming skin care essential!

I’ve been using this EltaMD Tinted Sunscreen for the past four years, and it’s a staple in my skincare routine. It provides lightweight SPF 46 protection while blending seamlessly for a natural, moisturized and clean look. The tint evens my skin tone without feeling heavy or oily - it never clogs my pores, which I highly value as someone with an acne prone/combination skin type person. Perfect for daily wear, it’s the best choice for a flawless, sun-kissed finish! From transitioning from full makeup girl to natural a beauty has never been so easy.

Repeat Purchase

I always have this sunscreen on hand, it's an excellent product. I use it primarily on my neck and chest because I use the tinted version for my face for the extra glow it provides. I like how this sinks in quickly and does not leave a sticky feel on my skin. Also, it does not stain clothing which is a plus since I wear it everyday. Will continue to repurchase!

Burning Feeling and Bad Skin Reaction

I think this product is not for my skin type, since there are so many positive reviews. After cleansing my skin and doing my skin care routine, I applied the Elta MD Clear sunscreen and it immediately started to feel tingly and burn. It soothed after 5 min maybe but the rest of the day I felt a little itchy here and there. Later that night I washed my face and did my nighttime skin routine. The next day I did the same skin routine and applied the Elta MD clear sunscreen again and it immediately started burning again but more! I washed my face because I couldn’t tolerate the feeling. I think my skin is too sensitive for this formula so I had to return. I give it a try after seeing positive reviews for sensitive skin. After returning this sunscreen, I tried another elta md sunscreen and it did not disappoint at all :)

Lightweight

Finally a lightweight SPF for the face that my skin doesn't react to! This goes on like a moisturizer and absorbs quickly. It doesn't cause me to break out either, I love it!

Favorite Sunscreen

Was recommended by Dermatologist for my sensitive skin. I like the light texture that applies easily and doesn't result in a white cast. Would buy again.

Used for years

I love the way this makes my skin look. Recently tried an alternative. Never as happy with other. This I can only use for under makeup days, he de the minus one star. Plus it says for sensitive skin. I have rosacea as well. Here is the thing about this item.. it can at times cause burn sensation when applied cause problems for a several days due to the initial burn. Or if exercise with it on it causes burning sensation. Not sure but I feel it has something to do w/the niacinamide I have realized just don’t wear if I’m going to sweat and apply when I’m not warm in face, ie after shower and definitely not right after exercise. It leave dewy glow and I don’t get any breakouts. It also doesn’t ever come off onto my clothing and collars. Even when wearing black. Sometimes I don’t think it works as well as pure mineral ones. But those wreck my clothes. I use the clear and hope to try the tinted with as much success.
