Reviews For EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Facial Sunscreen
Favorite SPF
I have tried many SPFs, and this is my #1. In fact, I don't like others when comparing them to the EltaMD SPF. It is moisturizing without leaving your face greasy.

More color coverage than Skincueticals product
This product has more pigment and more coverage than SkinCeuticals Sheer Physical Fusion UV Defense Sunscreen with SPF 50. It leaves more shine which can look greasy rather than dewy. I control shine with Colorscience Sunforgettable SPF 50 powder. Both EltaMD and SkinCeuticals products are excellent for those who want to look like they are wearing no make-up at all or for those with wrinkles and who don't want to use a foundation that will cake in the lines. The sunblocking is excellent and my face has stayed relatively untanned despite hours in the sun over the summer. I prefer SkinCeuticals for its sheerness, but this product looks and works almost as well, too.

The Best
I have been using Elta products for close to 13 years. The are wonderful! The feel so light own my skin, yet afford wonderful protection from the elements. I live in a high UV area and start each day with my Elta. I am particularly fond of the tinted Elta, as it gives me enough coverage that I can go without any other makeup most days. I am in my early 70''s, and I truly believe that Elta MD has helped preserve my skin - I often get compliments on how young my skin looks. I wouldn't change to another product even if it meant saving a few dollars. I have convinced my daughters, and several friends, all of whom are out doors in tropical sun most of the year, to use Elta products and they are also very happy.

Review for Elta MD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen - Tinted
I am a snow skier in the winter and a sailor in the summer. I have fair skin and have used LOTS of different sunscreens. Over the years I have developed an itchy ski rash eventually to every sunscreen I have used. My dermatologist recommended this product. I have had no reaction to daily use...and it works! It goes on evenly and easily. I like the tint - is is light and transparent. I think it evens out my skin tone without looking like makeup. I also have used the clear (no tint) on legs and arms - again with no reaction.

Fabulous!
This is the first time I have used this sunscreen and I will definitely be using this from now on. I am outdoors daily playing tennis and have used Neutrogena FACE sunscreen for years. I am now switching to EltaMD forever. This sunscreen absorbs immediately into your skin and does not feel heavy. It stays on and provides great protection. I wear it everyday!

Good Sunscreen.
I love the high content of zinc oxide in this sunscreen, however I wish if it contained physical sunscreen ingredients only. And it contains a high content of a B vitamin which is amazing. Also, it does not have a scent which is important for me.

Lightweight sunscreen
I've always been hesitant about using sunscreen after battling with oily and acne-prone skin, but this is a great product. I've been using it for about three weeks and notice that it calms any redness and does not break me out.

Acne prone skin
I was prescribed this sunscreen for my very acne prone skin. I have to have laser treatments occasionally (Isolasz) for the acne and require a very serious and effective sunscreen. This fits the bill. Also good tint color.

All Star‼️
This is an amazing product. Light weight, easily absorbed, non greasy and top notch ingredients that I need, my skin needs for overly sun protection. I have only skin and breaks out easily, this does not add grease to my face and it is so easy to apply because it is not thick and heavy. I hope more people will discover this brand of sun protection and esp this one in particular. They seldom go on sale so I stock up when it's 20% off.

Slightly drying, very light tint, but breakout-free!
Overall I like this sunscreen quite a bit, but it is drying even for my combination skin, so I have to use moisturizer at night on dry areas after wearing this during the day. I wish the tint were a bit more intense but it is very sheer. The best thing about this product is that I have not had a single breakout while using it, and this is my second bottle. The niacinamide content is high enough to really make a difference, and supposedly this ingredient also helps with fine lines -- at age 36, I unfortunately have both acne and nascent wrinkles, so this product addresses both problems.

EltaMD UV tinted is the best!
My cosmetic dermatologist applied this product to my face after a treatment & now it is the only day time lotion I will use! It is lightweight and the tint is awesome.

Excellent Lightweight Sunscreen
This is the only sunscreen I have tried that does not cause my face to sting. It is lightweight, dries beautifully, and leaves virtually no cast, despite containing zinc oxide. The only issue I have had is that after multiple applications -- and I try to re-apply at least twice each day -- the sunscreen begins to "flake" slightly. For those concerned to use only "all-natural" products, be aware that this sunscreen contains the chemical octinoxate. Also, the zinc is "micronized" (i.e. finely particle), the "healthfulness" of which is the source of scientific debate (but is also the reason the sunscreen leaves no white residue).

Mother of all
This small bottle contains powerful ingredients. Not too scentful glides onto the skin smoothly .It does not give any ashy/gray cast as I am dark skin which was my fear. Love it.

EltaMD UV clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen Untinted
Excellent product! Clean and no scent! It was recommended by my dermatologist! I have had allergic reactions to other sunscreen products, so he suggested I try Ella and it was a success!

Light, moisturizing sunscreen that works!
I have seborrheic dermatitis on my face and rosacea, and this sunscreen has helped clear it out. I like the fact that it is mineral based and doesn't feel too heavy so my skin can breathe, which is important given my skin condition. It feels super nice on my skin and glides right through, and I also like how it has Niacinamide. The only thing I don't like about it is that it has octinoxate which the EWG.org has labeled as a high toxicity sunscreen ingredient, although goodguide.com labels it as safe with use restrictions. I guess you can't have everything!

Great
This sunscreen is not greasy or sticky. It does not have a smell either. It goes on smooth, and you don't even know you have it on.
