Reviews For EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Facial Sunscreen
Best facial sunscreen available!
The best sunscreen is one which you will use everyday and I use this sunscreen on myself and my two children everyday! I have hyper-pigmentation on my face and have undergone expensive and painful laser procedures to try to lighten the dark patches of skin. I use this sunscreen everyday to help keep the dark patches from returning/ getting darker. I put this sunscreen on my childrens faces (ages 6 and 10) every morning before school to protect their skin during outdoor recesses. This sunscreen is the first one that my children havent complained about because it isnt greasy, smelly, doesnt make their skin shiny and doesnt leave white patches or streaks.

GREAT STUFF
I tried my free sample of the EltaMD sunscreen and I gotta say I love this stuff! I dont know if its better than the SkinCeuticals UV Fusion sunscreen though, Ive been using that stuff for the past 6 months now, but EltaMD does feel great. Does not feel greasy at all and its great under makeup. I may possibly order some after I use up my other sunscreen!

This is My Go-To Sunscreen
Love this sunscreen. Its light on the skin and I feel protected at SPF 46. I mix it with my jane iredale loose power and wear it as foundation during the day and love it. I will purchase this again and again.

perfect sunscreen for sensitive skin
I have tons of allergies and really sensitive skin. This sunscreen is so light and not greasy at all and the huge bonus is it doesnt give me a rash or make me breakout. its very effective and i think has actually improved my overall skin quality. You do need to reapply but its fine over makeup doesnt seem to clog pores at all. I love it and always stock up when its on sale!

The best for oily/combination skin
I have used different face sunscreen for oily/combination skin such as Lancôme and La Roche and Skinceuticals, EltaMD is by far the best, it absorbs really fast.

Best Sun Screen for sensitive skin
I love EltaMD sunscreen, especially the "Clear" product. Excellent protection and includes ingredients to even skin tone whole not irritating rosacea or eczema. Love the mineral active ingredients. The more "chemical" sunscreens Ive used have caused skin irritation.

Another great EltaMD product
As someone with very fair skin, I know the importance of a good sunscreen. This sunscreen has a high SPF rating while also doubling as a sheer foundation, with just enough tint to even skin tone. I was worried about it not matching my skin, but it blends in smoothly. Looking forward to bringing this sunscreen on vacation this winter!

Excellent product!
I have religiously used the untinted version for years ever since my dermatologist introduced me to EltaMD Clear. And now theyve upped their game with the tinted version! I like that the tinted version doesnt leave any white residue. I will say that it doesnt provide coverage so I still need makeup but it blends very nicely and gives a radiant glow to my skin after applying. Great sun protection for my acne-prone skin!

Best Sunscreen for Sensitive Skin
I have rosacea and almost every sunscreen makes my skin break out. This sunscreen does not cause any rosacea problems. I especially like the fact that it is tinted because I do not also have to wear makeup on top of the sunscreen.

Our new favorite face sunscreen
This is my husband and kids HG face sunscreen. It absorbs quickly and doesnt leave the whitish caste that other mineral sunscreens do, yet it contains a high concentration of physical sunscreen ingredients. I personally use a tinted sunscreen, but for my menfolk, the untinted version is perfect. Very highly recommended.

Best sunscreen ever
I live in Colorado, where the high altitude and frequent sunny days caused me to develop melasma by the time I was in my mid twenties. Since then, I have been religious about using a high SPF sunscreen on my face daily. I was a long time user of the Shisheido product, but they recently changed the formulation which was greasy and broke my skin out (which is saying a lot, since Im 44 and have perpetually dry skin). A lot of the other products dont have a high SPF or are chemical sunscreens, which I dont like. Thank goodness I got a sample of this stuff. Goes on clear, non-greasy, doesnt break my face out, and looks great under make-up. EltaMD, please please please never change the formulation.

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen - Untinted
I have tried so many $-$$$ varieties of sunscreen that have failed that I debated not using any at all. I spent half my life at the beach in Hawaii without sunscreen and have seen the aging effects over time. There is also the risk of developing the "C" word. Sunscreens on me are either too drying, too oily, too thick, too white, or cause breakouts. During my sunscreen research I found EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen - Untinted which had outstanding reviews. Its a little pricey, BUT, its absolutely wonderful! It goes on easily, disappears instantly, is fragrance free, doesnt irritate the skin or eyes, and makes my skin look normal! I havent felt the need / or want to use foundation so I cant attest to how it mixes with makeup. I will only use this brand of facial sunscreen from now on. I LOVE IT!

Perfect Daily Moisturizer for Retin-A Treatment
I recently started using Retin-A, so I was looking for a daily moisturizer with a heavy dose of SPF. My dermatologist recommended the EltaMD line of products, specifically this moisturizer, and it has not disappointed. I have very sensitive skin that is also oily, and this product hasnt irritated it or made it any greasier. Im very curious about checking out the rest of the EltaMD line, particularly the full-body sunscreens.

I LIKE IT
I live in South Florida, 46 years old, exercise indoors and sweat a lot, and my skin is prone to break outs and sun spots, After using other products from other brands also as good as this one, I gave it a try and as of now I like it. I use it before my primer and then I apply my foundation, I love the tinted because usually professional or cosmetic UV protectors are white finish, which I dont mind before I work out. If you are looking for a sunscreen to apply before your foundation this one will work great, not only because its very silky smooth, but it will definitely protect your skin.

Multipurpose Protection for Every Day Use
My dermatologist recommended that I use the highest possible sunscreen protection every day. EltaMD clear broad spectrum is a bit more drying than other EltaMD products because it is meant for acne prone skin. I use it in the summer to cut back on the shine an keep my skin protected from the rays. My skin looks amazing since I have been using EltaMD and my dermatologist is very happy that I use additional protection over my prescription lotions.

wonderful SPF
I learned about this product from In Style magazine. I have sensitive skin (prone to redness and little white heads around my nose). This product doesnt irritate my skin, it doesnt burn my eyes if Im sweating, and it doesnt have an off putting odor like a lot of sunscreens. It also blends in very well. My only advice is to wipe your eyebrows with a wet cloth after you apply it because it can cause them to get a bit hard and stiff.

Best line of skincare yet
Elta MD was recommended to me by my dermatologist who also uses the products. This is the best line of skincare products that I have ever used on my sensitive, fair, rosacea-prone skin and I have tried hundreds of different product lines!

Perfect for Everyday Use
Having had skin cancer twice before turning 40, I realized it was time to take better care of myself. Thankfully Dr Schlessinger and his staff recommended ELTA MD sunscreen. I use it every day without skipping a beat. You can use under your foundation or without. I have the tinted so I actually use it as my foundation. Its wonderful!! It stands up to sweat very well and goes perfectly with my acne-prone skin. This will be my go-to from here on out! I cant stress enough how important sun protection is. You wont find a better product.
