Reviews For EltaMD UV Active Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Mineral Full Body Sunscreen
Nice Body Sunscreen
I use this product primarily for my neck, decollate, and arms every day. The cream is a bit thick, but it does rub in clear. (I have medium-fair skin.) I like that it has no scent, and I find this sunscreen effective.

Great Sunscreen
This was the first time I have used the Eltamd body sunscreen. I have used the AM cream, PM cream, and foaming facial wash for years and knew I wanted to try the sunscreen. I am glad I did. Great coverage and no sunburns for me!

No sun allowed!
I love this sunscreen for sweaty activities like tennis and pickleball. Yes it is thick and looks white sometimes since it's a physical barrier not a chemical barrier. But for outdoor fitness sports it's great!

Best sunscreens for pale and sensitive folks
I've been buying them for years and will continue to buy over and over. Elta MD makes really great sunscreens for those who are really concerned about protecting their skin from UV damage. They aren't greasy and are not noticeable on pale to light skin.

Serious Sun Protection
Elta’s products were recommended by my dermatologist. I live in South Florida, where the tropical weather can be dangerous to your skin without the proper protection. Having fair skin, it's a must to wear SPF every day. I like that Elta’s 50+ sun protection is made with only physical actives like zinc oxide which is not toxic.

Best Protection Ever
Wonderful, mineral based sunscreen line for complete protection for my sensitive skin. The harsh AZ sun and dryness can do so much harm to my skin, so I’m fully protected with this—its very nourishing to my skin. I use this handy tube to put in my Pickleball bag so I can reapply after hours on the courts. This entire line was recommended years ago by my Dermatologist and has done wonders to give me full protection from the suns harsh rays. Goes on greaseless, feels lightweight.

Great beach and swim sunscreen
This sunscreen really protects by staying on when in the water. I use it for beach days in Florida and am protected from the sun. Great product.

Prevention
My dermatologist recommended EltaMD. I have precancerous skin damage on my face, legs and arms. I need a product that will protect my skin and prevent further damage.

Sure Bet for Snow Skiing
This sunscreen is my go to for ski trips. Have blue eyes/fair skin and I never burn using this product even on the sunniest days on the slopes. Doesn't clog up my pores either. Love, love, love it!

Perfect
I used the eltamd elements tinted but in the winter it can be a little too dark for my skin so I mix it with the eltamd uv active and I get the perfect color

Perfect for sports
I bought this for my husband who plays softball. He has delicate skin on his arms because of years working outdoors. He was unhappy with the sunscreens I’ve bought in the past because they turned his arms white. After years of wearing EltaMD sunscreens, I knew if I looked I would find one that would work for him. The Active Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ was perfect.

Good but leaves a white cast
I use this on my face for workouts because I find chemical sunscreens make my face red. I am pale and this still leaves an obvious white cast. I don't mind it for workouts but would not use as an everyday sunscreen. I do not like it on the body because I feel like it stains my clothes and is hard to rub in. It works well for the purpose I am using it for and may repurchase it but I only use it on the face for running and biking.

No white cast!
Rubs in easily and no white cast left showing. It is moisturizer instead of drying like so many other mineral sunscreens I’ve tried.

Another Elta staple
I live in Hawaii and this is always in our beach bag. I use this mainly for my little boys. On the thicker/heavier side but great coverage for those long beach days.

Great for my bike rides
I used EltaMD a couple of years ago, but I changed to a dermatologist who did not carry it - I was so happy to find this site! I ride a bike 4 hours at a time (my job) in the Texas sun and this product is up to the task. I apply a light touch of brush-on bronzer to take care of the whitish tinge.

Really good sunscreen
I first tried this sunscreen as a sample from another purchase. I have fair skin that burns and peels. I’ll try anything with a higher SPF rating. I’ve learned that just getting a higher number doesn’t guarantee a good sunscreen. A different brand had 100 SPF and I had a terrible reaction. I like this for my face which is very sensitive. I took off one star because the whiteish tinge to my skin makes me look like an aging movie star trying to reclaim her glory. Mostly I don’t care because I want the protection. But it’s pretty hard to rub all the way in. Almost perfect.

Great protection
This sunscreen has offered great protection on our vacation. It is a little hard to rub in at first but overall I would buy it again!
