Reviews For EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Facial Sunscreen
great sun protection
I have been using eltamd sunscreen for at least 5 years. the clear is perfect for my face. not greasy and offers 9% zinc oxide which is great protection. I also use their broad spectrum spf 45 for my chest, legs and arms (I am a golfer and spend hours in the sun). I have been very happy with eltamd products and first saw them at my dermatologist's office.

Elta MD products WORK!!!!
I am 67 years old, have tried many expensive products due to my sensitive skin and mild rosacea, but nothing compares to the Elta MD products, No sticky residue, hydrates the skin, soothes inflammation, the best sun protection on the market today, No one could make me change my routine and everyone is telling me I do not look my age...

Great product
This is a thin cream thats not at all oily. It's good for your skin because it has niacinmide. It is the only untinted sunsceen I use.

Elta tinted sunscreen
This product is very drying. I would have returned it as well as an unopened product if I could have.

Feels light under makeup but provides enough sun protection for my sensitive skin. Non irritating.

Better than the untinted version
I regularly use EltaMD products. I have tried several of their sunscreens for face and body. I have oily, acne prone skin so I regularly use the EltaMD clear formula. I was afraid to try the tinted version because they tend to be too light for me and leave a white color on my skin. However, this blended quite nicely, and the texture feels lighter on my skin than the original formula. It is now my preferred sunscreen for daily use.

Clear in the product name does not mean "untinted"
I LOVE this product in the untinted version. The tinted color is suitable for fair skin - more pink than yellow.

Lovely but...
Loved the sample. Beautiful finish, best natural glow of any "makeup" I've ever used. Bought the full size. A week later - cysts. I loved it so much I tried to convince myself they were due to something else for 2 months, but in the end, this caused horrific breakouts.

Instagram/Internet made me buy it
When I first starting looking into skincare routines, I learned that sunscreen was the #1 anti-aging ingredient. EltaMD products were consistently listed in internet articles for dermatologist top sunscreens and I saw this product on social media websites. I decided to order on this website because they are an authorized seller and I couldn't find this product locally. I'm glad that I had the option of ordering online via an authorized seller. In terms of the product, it's excellent. The EltaMD website says all of their sunscreens have PA +++ UVA rating. UVA rays cause aging, thus I know I am getting protection from both UVA & UVB rays with this product. I also hate any type of sunscreen that feels heavy and greasy on my skin. This one doesn't feel that way at all. It really feels like I am rubbing a light moisturizer on my skin. Very easy to use doesn't burn and I don't have to worry about color issues since I bought the non-tinted version. My husband also likes this sunscreen and the best sunscreen you can buy is the one you will use. I will definitely be re-ordering this product.

Great product.
Perfect when you don't want to make up your whole face. Put some on a little blush and your good to go. I highly recommend this product.😉

Doesn't cause breakouts
I use this sunscreen when I don't want to wear makeup because it doesn't leave a gray or white cast on my brown skin. It does leave it slightly shiny looking however, but I feel confident that it's protecting my skin from the harsh rays. It hasn't caused any type of breakouts whatsoever! It doesn't get five stars, because it contains a chemical sunscreen. In general it's a good product.

Great consistency, not so great for acne
I bought this at my dermatologist's office at first and have been using it for 3+ months now. Great consistency, goes well under makeup and I don't even need a moisturizer over it most of the time. However, not so great for the acne. I have sensitive, acne-prone skin and I've been breaking out ever since I started using this. Not deep, hormonal acne, but surface pimples. I would come home every day with at least 3-4 new pimples and I thought I was losing my mind. I finally stopped using it and, viola - immediately stopped breaking out. So sad, especially considering it's supposedly made for those of us with acne.

Great protection for sensitive skin
The SFP 46 provides great coverage to use over daily moisturizer to protect skin from sun damage. Very light and smooth finish. The tinted color helps to provide a more even completion to cover imperfections along with using a liquid foundation.

Nothing bad to say about this. It's so good. It makes my skin calm and bright all day long. Highly recommend this product.

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46
Great consistency and great for acne prone skin!! It does not make my pores feel clogged and it goes on great over my daily moisturizer. The only reason why I am giving it 4 stars is because I wish it lasted longer. Directions say to reapply every 2 hours throughout the day.

Excellent sunscreen
This sunscreen is light weight. It absorbs quickly and does not leave white residue on skin. It plays well with serums and foundations. The means no beading into little balls on the skin. Sometimes some sunscreens interact with silicone make up and it will bead. There is no typical sunscreen odor either.

great for sensitive skin
I have both acne and dry, sensitive skin, and my dermatologist suggested this as a combination skin-calming lotion + sunblock. First I used the original one, without tint, and then thought I'd try the tinted one. The consistency is still nice and light, and the color works with my slightly olive complexion. It can sometimes look a little greasy, and if you have broken veins or any redness, as I do, this coverage is too light to hide such blemishes. But it is still a really nice lotion that feels good on my skin.

Like it, more than love it
I really like how light weight it feels and it's not greasy at all. I've used other tinted SPF moisturizers and they would give me light cover up, but this one has no cover up. So, what I like about it is also what I don't. I haven't used it long enough to see how effective it is as a sunscreen or for my blemishes "acne". I've been using mineral powder with 15 spf on top for a little more "blemish" cover up.
