Reviews For EltaMD UV Shield Broad-Spectrum SPF 45 Oil-Free
Decent
Smooth application and feels buttery. But would not repurchase. It has very slight oxidation but it is barely. It's been months since I purchased this SPF and I am still not done with it. That is because it hasn't been my go-to.

Gentle on skin
I will use EltaMD for inside or short periods outside with a hat. Doesn't work for long periods or direct sun with my melasma.

2nd Fav EltaMD sunscreen
I usually use the EltaMD Clear sunscreen, but thought I would switch it up. It's ALMOST as good as the clear, there's no fragrance, doesn't make me break out. It is a bit harder to rub in and feels just slightly heavy on the face.

Excellent
Great, reasonably priced sunscreen. I have medium dark skin, and noticed the sunscreen disappear in my skin with no extra rubbing and no white cast. I just wish they fill up the bottle more. It seems half full, I think to leave room for air, but who knows. I will purchase again.

Not greasy, doesn't break me out
This is probably my favorite EltaMD sunscreen. It isn't greasy, but doesn't leave a super matte, dry feeling either. I have skin that tends to be more on the dry side, so it's important to use a good moisturizer before applying this. The reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because sometimes it can be too drying for me (like in the winter) and the white cast builds up with reapplications. But I still love this sunscreen and will continue to buy it! I have acne prone skin and it does not break me out.

New favorite sunscreen
I have been using the EltaMD clear sunscreen for the past year, and decided to try this when someone told me it was less sticky than the clear. This is now my favorite sunscreen over the Elta clear, because it is not as sticky and has more of a matte finish. The only reason I gave it four stars is I recently read an article that suggested the the SPF advertised on the bottle may not be the actual SPF in the product.

Decent sunscreen but still not as good as EltaMD Clear
EltaMD seems to be continuously raising their prices so I was looking for something that might work as a replacement for EltaMD Clear. This was a decent replacement but not as cosmetically elegant as the Clear. At this point, however, I have switched from the Clear to EltaMD Daily sunscreen instead as the Clear was a little too drying for my skin at this point in my life. Otherwise, this is a decent but not too entirely impressive sunscreen.

Re-applys beautifully
This is my new main face sunscreen because it re-apply beautifully on top of itself. It also burns my eyes less than the Elta MD UV Sport. The only thing that is a bummer is that it is not waterproof. I definitely recommend it if you are not in the market for the expensive Elta MD products. I like that I can get 7 ounces of this at a much more reasonable price.

Not bad
Makes my skin break out a little bit, other than that the texture and everything is ok.

Good physical sunscreen
It's a good sunscreen, very gentle and non greasy. it does leave a very slight white residue after application but disappear after a while. I use it under my tint sunscreen sometimes to offset the white effect it leaves on my face.

Like It
This is a good sunscreen for oily skin. Leaves a nice matte look with no white tint on the face. Also seems to keep my oiliness down throughout the day. However, I think it was the cause of a few pimples that popped up as I was using this. Once I stopped using it, pimples cleared up, but this could be from the prescription items I use on my face from my dermatologist. I am currently using a different sunscreen, but I am open with maybe trying this again in the future.

Light SPF
This product feels weightless and leaves no shine. The only con is I don't love the bottle. It's long and big for travel purposes. Also the product leaves a slight white cast. I'm pale so it isn't overt but is still there. Its a good SPF overall. It protects and isn't greasy.

This sunscreen is not greasy or heavy, easy to use and goes on smoothly! My boyfriend loves it too.

Great for daily use
This product is lightweight and good for every day use in place of or addition to a daily moisturizer. I tried using this doing workouts, but it runs into my eyes and burns. Better for non-sport use.

Ulta MD best sunscreen
I've used this product for few years now. I play a lot of sports outside in sun and need a good sunscreen that doesn't make your face white nor burn your eyes when sweating. Highly recommend.

Most reasonable sunscreen out there.
This is a very good sunscreen that does not leave a white cast on skin. It dries up fairly matte/is not greasy. It is a much better value than all of these other high-end sunscreens, so you can actually use it on your face and body. I do have a problem with it (like ALL sunscreens even 100 % physical sunscreens) turning my clothing yellow. The stains are removable with Spray and Wash Stain Stick, but it is a pain in the neck.

This sunscreen protects well.
This is a good sunscreen. And I feel protected from the sun when I am wearing it. And it does not have a scent which is great.

Good coverage and oIL free.
I am new to EltaMD and have found I like this brand. This is oil free and a high spf which I truly need, had skin cancer surgery on my face and very prone to more. This sunscreen dries nice without sticky feeling. Will continue to use.

Nice sunscreen
Sunscreen goes on clear and blends in well. I have VERY sensitive skin, so I use on my neck, chest and even arms. I never leave the house without it.
