**Due to supply chain challenges, and to avoid any potential out-of-stock this product may have a frosted clear overcap without the silver band as a temporary option.

EltaMD intentionally overfills items with airless pumps in anticipation that a small amount may leak in transit, especially in hot weather and/or during air travel. They do this in order to make sure that the entire amount of product is in the jar, even if a small amount leaks. For this reason, these items actually contain slightly more product than advertised before they are shipped to ensure the customer still receives an item with the appropriate amount of product.

This product is packaged with an airless pump dispenser, which uses a vacuum system to dispense the product. Please see this product's directions for further information on airless pumps.

The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends this product as an effective aid in the prevention of sun-induced damage to the skin, including sunburn and possibly premature aging. When used regularly in the prescribed manner, this product may also help reduce the potential risk of skin cancer due to overexposure to sunlight.

My everyday sunscreen

I have been using the sunscreen for years and have not found anything else that works better for me! It goes on evenly and blends in seamlessly with my skin to create a nice base layer for makeup, or even just on its own.

Acne Protection failed

Despite the product claim of calming and protecting skin prone to acne and rosacea, the area around my nose and forehead broke out within 2 days of using the elta MD UV tinted face cream. The texture and application are ideal, thus 2 stars, but I looked like a teenager with the acne lesions caused by the product.

A Summer must have!

The ingredients work for me with rosacea. At the age of 77, I have used this product for years as it was recommended to me by a dermatologist. It helps to calm my skin and keeps it well hydrated all day. Plus, during the summer there is no need to other makeup because it is tinted. Nice.

A Favorite Sunscreen

This is my current favorite Elta MD sunscreen. It applies evenly, leaving no cast. It works very well if you want to layer a foundation or tinted sunscreen over it.

MVP SPF

An SPF recommendation from one of my favorite estheticians back when I had very troubling acne. Now I'm older and focusing on combating aging and dry skin. This sunscreen has held up through it all. Big fan of the fast absorption, light texture, and high protection.

Definitely a Winner!

A pleasant-smelling, non-show product which enhances the look of skin without foundation and interfaces well with foundation.

Great sunscreen EltaMD

I have been using EltaMD SPF 46 Sunscreen for years, I encouraged my hard to please husband to try it, we both absolutely love this sunscreen! It has a lightweight, non-greasy formula that absorbs quickly and doesn't leave any white residue, I can apply minimal make-up without that ashen look that other sunscreens leave on the skin. My skin feels protected, hydrated, and smooth all day, even under the sun. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for effective sun protection that actually feels comfortable on the skin!"

Best sunscreen ever

Well, I thought I loved my previous sunscreen that I have dutifully been purchasing forever until they changed the formula. I live in SoCal so a good sunscreen is an absolute must. So I looked at the Lovely Skin staff favorites and decided to try this Elta MD product. I love it. It's a bit lighter than what I was using before and leaves no white residue at all (and my previous product only left the barest of residue, so I just lived with it). It's so creamy, it goes on easily, it's my new go-to sunscreen. Totally great!

Perfect daily moisturizer

Elta MD UV Clear is the best daily moisturizer with SPF. It is light and covers well. It doesn’t make my face look white as some products can tend to do.

My go-to sunscreen

I’ve been using this sunscreen for several years. I like the coverage with just a half pump, light texture, it doesn’t have a strong fragrance, it is non-greasy and has a subtle reflective quality that leaves the skin looking bright after application. I highly recommend this sunscreen.

Staple Sunscreen

This has become my staple, go-to sunscreen. It absorbs into the skin nicely, and layers well under makeup. It feels light, unlike a lot of other sunscreens. I can actually use the recommended amount for the face without it feeling too heavy or thick.

Will order again.

This sunscreen absorbs quickly and doesn’t feel greasy on my face. The tint is just enough to add a little glow. I will be ordering it again.
