Reviews For EltaMD UV AOX Elements Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 50 - Upgraded Formula
Nothing like the OG Elements
I know that this has been reformulated but I didn't expect it to be so vastly different from the original Elements SPF. This one is much thicker, harder to blend, and doesn't feel as moisturizing. Super disappointed and now on the hunt for a new favorite SPF.

Sad to return
Normally I love all of Elta MD. I use their regular tinted sunscreen, and thought I’d try the UV AOX. This product rubbed off on my shirt when I got dressed. Maybe I had too much on? I’m switching back to the regular one and will now try the untinted one. I’m still a bug fan of Elta MD!

New formula is awful
I’ve been an EltaMD UV Elements user for years - it was amazing. All I needed for perfect coverage for daily wear. It was smooth and thick, but not heavy. And the color was great. The new AOX formula is horrible. It feels very greasy on my face, the color isn’t great and it doesn’t provide much coverage. My face also itches. So disappointed they changed this one. Will be returning and will have to find something else.

Favorite Tinted Sunscreen
I love this product! I have very sensitive skin and other sunscreens have broken me out. I am so glad I gave this product a try because it is far superior to the other tinted sunscreen I was using. It seems to last all day and looks great on the skin!

Skin Saver!
I have used this on my face daily during winter and summer months for several years. I don't wear makeup however this product gives the appearance of a light BB when applied to skin. This product goes on smooth and enhances my skins texture.

I love this product!
Even though only one shade is offered, it matches my skin perfectly. Goes on smoothly with great coverage. Will definitely purchase again as it’s become my “go to” sunblock.

I love this sunscreen
I purchased the tinted one because I don’t always wear makeup and this lightly covers my skin to give it a smoother look. Plus, it’s a great sunscreen, easy to put on and to reapply throughout the day. It will be my go to sunscreen year round.

Elta MD UV AOX Elements Tinted SPF50 Upgraded Formula
I received a sample and it was the first time I was willing to try a tinted sunscreen, because it blended beautifully with my skin color. I like that it is a mineral sunscreen. The protection is very good. It’s a bit on the dry side, after having been using EltaMD Clear, but not bad, especially considering it is a mineral sunscreen. I try to apply as little as possible, so not to get anything onto my clothing. In fact, I would prefer untinted for that reason, even though the color blends beautifully. Overall, yes I would recommend it.

Amazing even for very fair skin
I have very fair skin. I was shocked at how perfect the bronze is in the sunscreen. I received a sample and then bought the full size. Love it

It’s not moist
I like the finish but after hours it feels a little bit dry sometimes. My skin it’s very very dry so next time I think I have to order Elta MD sunscreen with moisturizer but I love the tinted finish.

Orange!
I wrote a review before on this product and it was denied. Apparently using the sample LS sends to generate interest in their products are not to be used as a trial. I actually purchased the tinted sunscreen but decided to use the sample before I opened the new product. It went on so smoothly. No pilling etc. I was thrilled until I looked in the mirror later that day. The sunscreen had turned orange. I could see the lines where I applied it. I sent a new usable product back for a refund. My first review was denied because I first used the sample. Does this make sense?

EltaMD UV AOX Elements Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 50 - Upgraded Formula (Good coverage, protection, and no breakout)!)
My previous go to facial sunscreen was Elta UV Physical Broad-Spectrum lightly tinted. It is a good product, but I decided to try the new UV AOX Elements Tinted. For me, this is turning out to be a superior product for the following reasons: (1) Smoother application. The UV Physical sometimes had some chunkiness when squeezing it out after using the container for a while. It was easy to take the tiny clumps out, but the UV AOX Elements comes out of the pump very smoothly with excellent consistency. (2) The color is a better match for me. I am fairly light but the UV Physical sometimes was just a bit too pasty looking--especially in summer. The UV AOX Elements has a bit more color but is not orange or fake looking like some sunscreens. (3) I find the coverage to be better in terms of being able to use it as a substitute for foundation than the UV Physical. I apply a light moisturizer and then UV AOX on top and head off to work. The coverage is natural looking and stays stable all day. (4) I wear a facial mask in some settings and the UV AOX is decent in terms of not staining up the mask immediately and making it look like a dirty mess. In terms of sun protection in my sunbelt state, I find both products to work well and neither cause any breakout. I am older now but still capable of acne breakouts from products that clog my pores. I am also sensitive to fragrance and prefer physical to chemical sunscreens. In summary, Elta MD UV AOX Elements tinted is the best sunscreen for my face that I have tried so far and checks off all my "must have" features.

nice coverage
I normally use Elta MD Clear, but this has better coverage. Blends nicely. I use as the only thing on my face. Very good!

Too dark for light skin
Wanted to like this because I like the creamy texture but sadly the tinted color is too dark for my light skin tone.

Love this!!
I love this new version of Elements. My skin texture has improved since use and is not pore clogging at all. The tint is a good color and blends greatly into my skintone. I also enjoy the higher spf 50. Great product

Smooth and Effective
This does exactly what it states it does. It feels really good on your face as well. When it comes out of the bottle it feels thick but not on your face. This will be a forever purchase for me.

tint is off
This version seems a little thicker than the old version and that's okay with me. What I'm not happy about is the tint of this product. The old version matched my skin tone better, this one is too yellow.

thicker than other formula but I think that will be a good thing
this is new to me but I've been using Elta MD for several years now since my doctor recommended it. I have been using tinted UV clear and happy with it but wanted to see if this gave me a bit stronger coverage and seems to be what it does. I'll still use the clear UV for every day but glad to have this one for stronger sun.
