Reviews For EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Facial Sunscreen
For oily skin? I don't think so
I have been using exuviance and I was reading reviews about this sunscreen, I purchase the tinted version and what a disappointment. Even if you don't use much you end up with a greasy and shiny face. And always get a pimple after I use it. So I will probably use this only for the neck

Best Facial Sunscreen Ever!
I've used this product for a couple of years. I will not use anything else. I prefer the tinted. It's texture is smooth and light. It goes on effortlessly and blends nicely. The tint is so very light, it's just enough and doesn't really change your skin color like a foundation. This product feels light on your skin and does not produce extra shine like others I've tried in the past. Love this stuff!

Irritated my eyes
I loved the texture of this sunscreen and it wore well under my makeup, but I used it around my eyes and it really caused them to burn and be red. I believe it is the octinoxate. I was hoping to find an untinted physical sunscreen by Elta, but unfortunately there are only 2 Elta physical sunscreens that do not contain anything but Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide and they are both tinted. I have the tinted SPF 41 and it is OK, but seems a little too dark and turns orange on me. I still give this 4 stars because it is good, just not good for me to use on my face. I can still use it on my body.

Elta Sun Blocks are the Best
I have been using Elta MD skincare/sunscreen for more than 20 years. I honestly think the high zinc content (which absorbs with no white residue) under my makeup and everyday for years is why I have very few wrinkles in my late 30s. These products are great for sensitive and acne prone skin. I also have some rosacea and it never irritates my skin.

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen - Tinted
I love this sunscreen! It is light and not oily. I use the tinted sunscreen daily as makeup. It does not cover every blotch, but I am ok with a little imperfection. If I need more coverage, I use a heavier product over this.

Nice, but ...
For the past year-and-a-half, I've been using EltaMD UV Physical Broad-Spectrum SPF 41 (Tinted), but decided to try this product because: a) I thought the pump dispenser might be easier to use than the tube and b) a little more SPF never hurts. While the pump dispenser is nice, this formulation is not as creamy as the SPF 41 version. I prefer the texture of 41 — it goes on more evenly and gives me more of a foundation-like finish. I'll be going back to it for my next order.

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen
Love this sunscreen. I hate thick, heavy sunscreens, and this one is so light, you can barely feel that it's on. Works great under makeup, and feels very clean, not oily or greasy at all. The only downside for me is that it doesn't have a lot of staying power, especially during swimming or sweaty workouts - it comes right off, so I felt I needed to reapply more often than other heavier sunscreens. For outdoor workouts, I wouldn't recommend this - but otherwise, it's amazing.

Works Well on Oily - Sensitive Skin
Initially I received this product as a small sample from a previous order. I tried the sample for a few days and liked it so much I decided to order the full size version. I have sensitive, acne prone (hormonal), oily skin. The product did not irritate my skin and absorbed pretty well after I applied it over my moisturizer.

EltaMD UV Clear 46 - Our Favorite!
I've ordered EltaMD UV Clear 3 times now and I've been using it for the past 3 years. This last order I ordered extra to give to three family members. It's the only sunscreen that doesn't cause our noses to break out. I have very dry age 52 skin, and use it on my nose. My daughters have combination skin, with acne and they use it all over their faces. It is the only facial sunscreen we've found which doesn't cause their skin to break out. It is not drying, but feels more like a very gentle sunscreen which doesn't cause breakouts. We love it!

Elta MD Sun Protection following skin cancer
Elta products were suggested to me by my dermatologist following surgery with skin cancer. I love the Daily and Clear. The untinted is the only one I will use as tinted stains clothes. The untinted goes on smoothly without turning my skin blue. It is silky going on and does not smell or get gloppy. It rubs in gently and does not streak or pull the skin when rubbing in. There is no coconut smell or any smell at all, which I prefer. I have used these two products for 6 years now. My skin does not get burned in the sun as long as I use my product. I strongly recommend if you want to protect yourself from UVA damage.

Just keep on re-ordering this - fabulous!!
I have been using this for YEARS and I can't imagine switching. I have been quote acne-prone and never any issue with this. It actually feels soothing with the niacinamide and other ingredients. If you want to apply powder over it just wait a bit for it to soak in. I seem to only need a little - it spreads very well, great consistency and does not leave any white film. Love!!

Streaky
The lotion is too thin to cover your face evenly in the same shade. It streaks. The non tinted version is awesome but the tinted version is not worth your money

The Best!
Highly recommended by Dermatologist. Been using Elta products for many years. I'm 78 years young and going strong. My skin has natural aging lines, etc., but believe they would be much worse, had I not been using these products. Unfortunately, I did not start really taking care of my skin at an early age, which I would certainly recommend to everyone. Takes a few extra minutes, but well worth it in days to come.

Leaves my face very shiny >_<
I bought this product based on the great reviews I saw and that it's specifically for people with Rosacea. Unfortunately, I am returning it as it leaves my skin very very shiny. Plus the tint is too dark for my light complexion. Really wanted to love it but it just doesn't work on me =(
