Reviews For EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Facial Sunscreen
Good sunscreen, keeps me from burning
This sunscreen kept my face from getting burnt and wasnt too thick or mask-like. It did get a little "ropey" or sticky if I worked it into my face too much (I think I might just have a bad habit of doing that with sunscreen). But it did the job, didnt have a smell, and didnt make me break out. A little pricey for the bottle, but cheaper than acne--and I have sensitive skin, so anything that doesnt irritate is a win.

Favorite so far!
I used this sunscreen during a current HOT spell and was very pleased that it did not cause my face to shine and look moist. I love the clear and slightly matt finish it provides. The texture is perfect for my skin. This sunscreen goes on smoothly. My only negative is that Im not fond of the pump dispensing system. I like to get all of the product out of the bottle. The jury is out since Im not through the first bottle yet. I hope to be pleasantly surprised.

almost great
i like that this sunscreen is not overly greasy, however the problem may be that over the course of the day, i find the layer of sunscreen gets pretty dry, and i wonder if that is preventing my skin from breathing, and causing it to clog. i have skin that is naturally oily, so i like to keep it well moisturized and in balance. over-washing or drying out my skin in the past has lead to acne, and i still have mild to moderate acne now, which improves if i keep my skin properly balanced and moisturized. i dont think the product itself clogs my pores at all, it is more that it makes it a bit dry and stiff towards the end of the day, which my type of skin does not like, and i have noticed bumps forming after a day of wearing this. i may try to remove the product in late afternoon and see if that helps.

Good sunscreen
Light weight, easy to apply, hygienic packaging. Took 1 star away because it pilled under my makeup and dried out my skin a bit.

Light, Non-greasy
Tried many sunscreens before, but this is by far the lightest. It doesnt go on feeling greasy like other sunscreens and when it dries, you cant feel its on at all. I did get a few pimples the first week using this but it went away after that. (I also started a new skin care regimen in conjunction to this so it could have been my skin just adjusting.) Its also been minimizing any redness ever since using this. Best sunscreen I have tried so far.

Good Sunscreen For Acne Prone Skin
This is non-greasy and will not leave you with a white cast like a lot of others with ZnO. The ingredients are also beneficial to acne prone skin since it has 5% VB3 in it. However, if you apply some gel type products before/after it, it is highly possible to ball up on the skin.

Great Sunscreen
This sunscreen was recommended by my dermatologist, I have tried several other products this is the best. My skin is very sensitive to the sun, I break out in a rash. Since using this product I have not experienced the itching rash. I will try some of the other products from EltaMD.

Sunscreen goes on light, but you need powder to make it set. Overall, good purchase.

My dermatologist recommended this product. It provides good protection but doesnt feel greasy or look like youve applied a zinc oxide product. Will order more.

a good balance for a great product
Most of the good quality sun lotions have double price for the same effect: Elta Md sunscreen has a great quality, is a very professional product and still the price is very decent. I use it everyday and is perfect to put make up on as it is not oily. It protects your skin perfectly in city environments and helps you to prevent wrinkles and dark spots. This product was recommended by my dermatologist and I recommend it to anyone: USE SUNSCREEN !!!

eltamd uv clear broad spectrum sunscreen 46 spf
This is the first facial sunsreen I have tried that I havent broken out. Love that it feels very light and sheer! Would have given it 5 stars if not for the mild sunscreen smell.

Great sunscreen, not sweat proof though
I love this sunscreen for the winter! I does not break me out (and I am very break out prone) and I havent noticed a white cast either. It goes on smooth. The only thing is that you can sweat this off pretty easily, which is not great for humid summers.

Great protection acne sunscreen
This is a great physical sunscreen for acne prone skin. It helps even out my skin tone, reduces my facial redness, and I dont get any dark spots when out in the sun wearing it. It leaves a very slight whitish cast, but its worth it for the protection. My skin looks creamy after a day in the Arizona sun.

good product but did not work for me
this is excellent except that it broke me out. feels great, sinks right into the skin, and seems to help control oil, great ingredients. something in there caused me to break out after almost a week of daily use. a very nice sunscreen, its definitely worth a try if you have oily skin!

no sunburn, not shiny
i have another elta sunscreen, that i use in the winter as it is more moisturizing. This is better for summer as there is no extra shine

so far so good
ALTHOUGH I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO USE THIS LONGER BEFORE BEING PROMPTED TO GIVE A REVIEW, SO FAR I REALLY LIKE THIS PRODUCT. IT BLENDS EFFORTLESSLY, DOES NOT BALL UP, WEARS WELL UNDER MAKEUP, AND IS A NICE BALANCE OF MOISTURE AND SEMI-MATTE ON MY OILY SKIN. I HAVE NOT USED IT LONG ENOUGH TO DETERMINE IF IT CAUSES BREAKOUTS.

I LIKE THIS PRODUCT. IT WILL NOT CAUSE YOUR FACE TO BREAK-OUT. IT WILL CAUSE YOUR FACE TO BE MILDLY SHINNY.

Women of color review
I tend to have oily skin and this sunscreen does not add oll to my skin. However, the sunscreen leaves a white film on my skin which takes about an hour and a half to totally blend in with my skin color.
