Reviews For EltaMD UV Sheer Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Face and Body Sunscreen
Not my favorite
This facial sunscreen feels light going on, but because of the zinc, it leaves my face looking very pale. Definitely need to cover it with a light makeup. It is sheer and applies nicely, though. I would prefer it in a tinted option.

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.

Not a fan
I loved my sunscreen - had to try another brand since they discontinued the product - I purchased this product reading the rave reviews - did not work for me . Miss my other sunscreen:(

I have very oily skin and I didn't like how greasy this sunscreen felt on my face.

Product doesn't last as long as the Elta Sport
Works just as well as the UV sport wear with less white residue, but I am almost out of it vs the Sport even though I have used the same amount of product as I have with the Sport. I will be sticking with my Sport/Active Elta.

Highly rated but too many ingredients
I would look for a sunscreen with Zinc as one of the first ingredients. I am giving Elta MD a 3 for the price point.

I use a moisturizer with HA just so this sunscreen dries my skin less.
When you apply this sunscreen , it looks smooth for about 1 hour and then it dries your skin with a tight feeling that makes me uncomfortable. Just wanted to try something other than my normal sunscreen. This sunscreen is not fit my skin so I should come back to my normal one.

Not what I was hoping for
This is not as sheer as I expected. It forms a nice film on the skin, so I trust the UV protection, but that film pills under makeup. It also does leave a slight white cast on my very pale skin. EltaMD offers other sunscreen formulas that are superior in cosmetic elegance to this one.

This might be water resistant but it is not sweat proof

I was looking forward to trying this sunscreen since I have been very satisfied with other EltaMD products. This caused a burning feeling on my face and I had to wash it off possibly not compatible with my long term use of Tretinoin cream. It wasn’t a complete loss though as my husband uses it daily and it works quite well for him.

Not my favorite!
For years I used EltaMD Clear, but as I've aged I switched to EltaMD Daily sunscreen and find it works much better for me. I'm always on the search for something even better than Daily so I tried this new product from EltaMD. It's just ok as far as I'm concerned. To be honest, it stings a bit when applying and that's a problem I never have with Daily. At this point, I'm going to stick with Daily.

Not good under makeup
There is a light cast on my medium to dark skin. Dewy finish. I do not like it under my liquid foundation. I will not be purchasing this again. It has a very silky texture and spreads easily.

Too Greasy
I have sensitive skin (using tretinoin) and this was just too greasy for me and burned my eyes when doing outdoor activity. Would not recommend to sensitive skin - I prefer the Clear EltaMD sunscreen!

Good except for the price
I love the product. It blends seamlessly, seems moisturizing and looks good. I think it is priced too high.

It’s ok
It’s not a bad sunscreen but there are better. It’s sheer and the spf is high but the finish, feel and wear of it was just ok. The best Elta MD sunscreen is the spray spf 45 which is great for the body. The whole family enjoys that one. So the hunt for the perfect sunscreen continues.

Is it worth it?
Not really sure if this is working. I've never worn lip SPF before, but I've never noticed anything off about my lips. I honestly feel like you could get a chapstick with SPF for much cheaper. Maybe save your money and pass on this Elta MD product.

Only okay
I don't like this as much as I like elta uv clear in the airless pump. Elta uv sheer didn't dry matte and left my face shiny. Consistency is thin and it's not moisturizing like uv clear. I bought it because of its higher spf rating.
