**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.

Answered Questions (7)

Can you tell me if this product is safe for pregnant women?

Before you begin using a new skin care product, you should always check with your physician to make sure the product is safe to use during pregnancy. EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46 Very Light Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen is safe to use if you are pregnant or nursing.

Is the tint color in this product the same shade as the tint in the Daily Spf by the same brand? Thank you

The universal tints are nearly identical for Elta MD UV Clear and EltaMD UV Daily, but the two formulas do apply quite a bit differently since UV Clear is a lighter lotion designed for oily, acne-prone skin, while UV Daily is a thicker one intended to moisturize dry skin types. When massaged in, the two sunscreens provide the same sheer finish.

Is this product water resistant?

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen - Tinted is not water resistant.

Is this safe to apply on the eye area?

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen - Tinted is safe to use around the eye area. Do not apply the product directly to eyes or on eyelids.

Is this considered to be a mineral sunscreen or chemical?

Because UV Clear uses zinc oxide (a physical active) and octinoxate (a chemical active), it is a hybrid chemical and physical sunscreen.

Is the sunscreen recommend by the Skin Cancer foundation? Does it have the seal?

Every EltaMD sunscreen is recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation and has earned their Seal of Recommendation.

Is EltaMD UV Clear a moisturizer?

EltaMD UV Clear is not a moisturizer, but it does use hyaluronic acid to help skin hold on to moisture.

Best Sunscreen

This really calms any redness on my face and protects my skin from the sun. There's no greasy residue and it's minimized the appearance of sunspots and fine lines.

Feels light and doesn’t cause breakouts

I keep coming back to this product…. Started using it several years ago when hormonal changes were wreaking havoc on my skin…breaking out like I was a teenager again! I’ve tried other products such as drug store brands that were labeled for the face but they were so heavy compared to the Elta product. Makeup goes on great over the Elta product!

Great Product!

I love this product! It spreads on your skin so well and pairs great with other products. I use it daily and it never breaks out my skin. My favorite skin care product for sure.

Great sunscreen

This sunscreen is wonderful! Good coverage and feels more like skincare than sunscreen. There is no white tint and does not pull. The only downside is the cost is quite high for the amount of product you get.

Coverage

I was disappointed with the Elta facial sunscreen It does not cover as well as I would like it too. It’s too thin compared to other products that I have used. I don’t think I’d buy it again.

First user, very happy with product

My dermatologist recommended I try this to help with reducing my hyperpigmentation. I love the texture, it goes on very easily and dries without a shine. I don't wear any makeup and this tint is just enough to give me some light coverage. Will definitely being buying again.

Excellent sunscreen. I've been using it for a while now. It's gentle and doesn't feel greasy on the skin. It's tinted, but doesn't offer great coverage. I'll buy the next one without the tint.

eltaMD skincare sunscreen

I am very impressed with delta MD skincare. It feels more like foundation instead of like sunscreen. I have used it under foundation and on top of foundation. It feels very light and silky. Very pleased with the results.

My GO TO moisturizer with sunscreen!

I have been using this EltaMD sunscreen/ moisturizer for over five years. It moisturizes without being too heavy for summer and works great in the colder weather, too. It has no unpleasant odor and your skin is protected all day! Never do I burn. I have been a loyal user of the sunscreen moisturizer and use all summer. It is part of my daily routine.

Best sunscreen for rosacea

I got a sample of this sunscreen and loved it. I have rosacea and large pores, I hated wearing sunscreen as it irritated my eyes and clogged my pores. This worked, did the trick and offered a little tint. Can't wait for my order to arrive.

Try this sunscreen!

EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Facial Sunscreen is the very best sunscreen, I know because I've tried them all! It provides effective skin protection against the sun--without the annoyances (no scent, no white cast, doesn't run, isn't drying, isn't greasy, doesn't clog pores).
