Reviews For EltaMD UV Active Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Mineral Full Body Sunscreen
No White Cast
My husband does not like white cast and this product he is happy so I bought another for me. Wow!! when I used it is so good. I run few miles every day and at the end of the workout, I don't see my face with a white cast (as I saw it with another brand). And as a bonus, it has Vitamin C--to protect it. This is definitely a keeper.

Love this EltaMD Suncreen!
I am big walker outside especially in the summer and sun. So having something I can put my arms and legs when I am outside is great. Needs to protect from the sun.

Only Sunscreen I use
This is a great sunscreen. Basic ingredients that from all that I've read, are safe for people and the ocean. While using this sunscreen, I've never burned and I burn easily. Highly recommended.

Best sunscreen if you are active!
I’m an avid runner and this sunscreen stays on no matter how much I sweat!

Too thick
I use the EltaMD for face and I love it so I assumed the body sunscreen would be great as well. Unfortunately it is too thick, is difficult to rub in and leaves a white reside. Their aerosol sunscreen though is perfect!

EltaMD UV Active sunscreen
Living in Hawaii the sun is very intense! My Dermatologist recommended this and I absolutely love it! Leaves a little “whitish” coating but that’s ok, it’s better than burning.

Love!!
The best sunscreen that is actually good for your skin and is NOT greasy nor turns everything you touch white! Use it on my hands before driving and my steering wheel is not slimy and stays black.

Not worth it.
For what you’re paying, this sunscreen is pretty disappointing. It leaves a terrible white caste, and if you have facial hair... beware. It’ll settle in your hair like nobody’s business. If you use this on your face it applies like clown makeup if your apply the amount you’re supposed to. Not a good option for the face. Would definitely not re-purchase.

Great product for Extreme Sun
I like the thick zinc oxide sunscreen to play tennis in full sun in Hawaii. Perfect for my face! Also for the beach. I don't use it on my body because it would be too hard to apply for all other areas. Lasts a long time. Perfect for my needs.

Great solution for sun allergy
My husband has a sun allergy. This product is great to help him protect his skin while out in the sun. He doesn't have the kind of reaction he normally has. The zinc oxide is the key, yet it's not like the older versions that were visibly/completely opaque. No one can see the product on the skin. Great solution!

High protection for outdoors
This is great for outdoor activities because it offers high protection and is waterproof. I wore this (face and body) on a four day camping trip near the Rio Grande and did not tan or burn despite the hours spent under the sun. For such a high percentage of mineral actives, it spreads easily and is moisturizing. I feel very protected wearing this and will make it my primary body/outdoor activities SPF. I would not use on my face everyday because it does make my skin whiter upon initial application. However, it does NOT break me out or pill on bare skin or over moisturizer.

This is the bomb!
I wear this every day! Doesn’t run in my eyes. It is moisturizing as well. Definitely going to order again!

Just OK
This sunscreen is very thick and white. My husband uses it when he play sports or surfs and it seems to stay on well.

I love Elta MD products but not this one
I am a loyal Elta MD customer, but this particular sunscreen was my least favorite. It goes on THICK. It turns your skin very white and sticks on to your skin & you clothes/car. I suggest their other products. I love this brand! But, this was the only product so far I did not like from this brand. I gave this away with a warning to a friend.

My dermatologist recommended this sunscreen
I have hyperpigmentation on my face and chest and was hoping so badly that it would prevent future pigmentation from appearing, unfortunately it didn’t. I reapplied several times throughout the day and still got some new pigmentation of my face and chest. My husband really likes it and feels it works great. His face sunburns easily although the rest of him tans, this did a great job no sunburns and doesn’t clog his pores.

Amazing
After a BCC diagnoses, an excision, tons of stitches and a forever scar on my chest, zinc oxide based sunscreen is a must! I have been through tons of zinc oxide based sunscreen and I must say, I feel 100% protected when wearing this! I LOVE the high amount of zinc! Zinc is a MUST when it comes to sunscreen. And sunscreen should be worn. rain or shine! I use it on myself and my 3 year old son every single day ! Hopefully I'll get my husband on board soon with daily sunscreen use. It is pretty thick so I warm it up in my hands before applying and that makes it super easy to apply to my skin. Can't say enough good things about this and I hope they make it forever!!

I've been using this sunscreen for many years. Its the best you can buy. Superprotective and not toxic. I'm in the sun a lot playing tennis and never get even the slightest but red.

Dissapointed
This product is so thick and white that it goes on like clown make up and doesn't really absorb in. I even mixed it with some moisturizer and it was still to white. I've used the Elta MD products for a long time but they are making them thicker and stiffer this year. They're hard to apply.
