Nice and light
Love it! I tried so many SPFs to use in my body for sports or to protect my skin while out and about. I disliked many due to texture, white cast, greasiness, etc. This one is just right! It’s light, absorbs quickly, it does not leave a cast or that oily film that sticks to everything and you can feel on your skin for hours.

Nice sunscreen
I purchased the UV SHEER sunscreen because I really wanted a very light weight sunscreen. I really like that it is unscented, good SPF protection (50) and doesn’t have a lot of ingredients in it because I have very sensitive skin. I used to use the UV CLEAR but had to find a different one when my skin became more sensitive. I usually choose sunscreens that are chemical free but they tend to be a little thicker because of the zinc. I only wish this one wasn’t water-resistant. So far it hasn’t made me break out but acne prone skin usually does better with sunscreens that aren’t water-resistant. I have dry, sensitive skin that still breaks out at times. I think this sunscreen would be good for many skin types, especially oily because it is so thin and absorbs in easy and isn’t greasy at all. It was a good pick for me and I have a super hard time finding the right sunscreen.

Extremely sheer!
I love this particular sunscreen! I love that it doesn’t leave a white cast, it’s very easy to rub in, and it doesn’t leave a greasy feeling. It leaves just a subtle shine. It works well for the face, which was my original intention, but it could be used for the full body as well which is a plus. The price was great too! I found this particular sunscreen on EWG. I was looking for a product that rated low for toxicities and this one did just that! It scored well! Love the brand!

Great Product
As usual with EltaMD, this product is phenomenal, but pricey if you use it for your body.

Good sunscreen for body
I bought this for face and body after reading how "sheer" it was and watching the LovelySkin Skinceuticals video. It is fairly lightweight and rubs in pretty easily. But like most all of the Elta sunscreens, I find it gives a bit of a white cast, especially with subsequent applications. It is not greasy though, so I do like that. I think I will use it just as a body sunscreen and go back to the Elta UV 46 daily untainted for my face, which does not seem to leave a whitish cast for me. I was hoping to use just one sunscreen for all, but will keep two tubes, one for face and one for body.

Different Formulation
This seems to be a different formulation than prior purchases. The sunscreen itself is more liquidy. This makes it easier to apply but does not always feel like it has staying power on the face when sweating. All the times I have purchased in the past, the sunscreen was thicker and seemed to stay put better. That said, I will continue to purchase as it is non-irritating and does not leave any residue.

From sample to full size
This product is great. I purchased this because I do a lot of outdoor activities and this product feels nice on the skin. I live in a hot and humid climate and this product does the trick. Does not leave a white cast, dorsal not feel thick and heavy on skin and just gives a nice hydration without overdoing it

Runs and burns eyes
This is horrible sunscreen. First. It does leave a white cast which is worse when reapplied. It runs down my face stinging my eyes when used before a short walk. I would not recommend it

Better than ever
I have been using EltaMD Sunscreens for several years and have had great results. They rub in completely and I never get a sunburn. This new EltaMD Sunscreen was even lighter-feeling, from when I started applying it. Used it on my vacation in Cancun and it was terrific!

Ella MD UV sheer
Love! It's hard to believe a product this lightweight and sheer actually work but it does! It is not white or thick or oily. It soaks right in. I will buy again!

Light and not greasy
This is a great sunscreen for both face and body. Doesn't leave white residue or exacerbate my oily t-zone. Highly recommend!

Favorite sunscreen for my face
I highly recommend this sunscreen. For the past couple years, I have been using it during my almost daily beach walks and outdoor pool swims. I live in southern CA where the sun is intense. Trust me, it works!

Nice product, but I feel better about using a chemical free sunscreen
I bought this to use on my hands, chest and neck that are more exposed in the summer months. While this product has zinc oxide, it also has chemicals (which generally I try to avoid). Therefore it is thinner and easier to apply, without the whiteish cast. All very nice, I am glad I tried it and will use the tube. But I will likely go back to UV Active to avoid the chemicals, and just deal with the less appealing aspects of the chemical-free sunscreen.
