Nice sunscreen with good coverage. A little pricey but easy to apply so it's worth it.

This is a good product to protect the skin from harmful UV rays. I prefer a physical sunscreen, and this one does not disappoint. It is suitable for the face (not heavy or greasy) and I use it on the neck, chest, and back of hands as well. If you are looking for good coverage, ample protection, and clean ingredients, you can't go wrong with this one.

Love this sunscreen - I get reactions to most sunscreens so I have a very hard time finding one that works for me. This one was recommended by my dermatologist and I am very happy with it.

While this sunscreen is very effective in protecting my olive skin, I do not like the chalky coating that is left leaving my skin looking pasty and dull. I will try the ELTA Shear.

Not too thick, greasy, or drying...just right! Never burned with this sunscreen (fair, sensitive skin) and makeup goes on smoothly.

I used to use the Elta MD UV Clear sunscreen, which I absolutely loved, but have since made the switch to a physical sunscreen. This one is a good one that I’ve found, I’m ordering a backup for the office. It can leave a white cast so you have to really rub it in, but that’s common for most physical sunscreens I’ve used.

I expected more of a white cast but the finish was surprisingly nice! Great for outdoor activities when you need strong protection.

I love EltaMD products, but this one was a little heavy and harder to blend on my fair skin.

I have used different EltaMD sunscreens, but this one is my favorite! It applies on smoothly and doesn’t leave your face looking white. It’s also the best price per ounce compared to the other ones. Love that EltaMD is medical grade quality.

I like all things EltaMd. A quality product. My only disappointment with this product is that it doesn’t absorb as well as their other sunscreens so there is a white residue left on my skin.

I use the tinted EltaMD physical sunscreens for the face, but this one is perfect for the neck and decollete. It gives good UV protection and a cosmetically elegant finish. Applying a touch of tinted sunscreen on top makes it look even better.

I have sensitive skin and easily burn. I have used EltaMD UV Physical for years on my face and neck and absolutely love it. This is the perfect complement to that product for the rest of my body. The skin on my chest is super sensitive and damaged from years of sun exposure and this suncreen does not irritate it at all. It applies easily and does not leave any significant white cast. Seems to stay on well even with water exposure. Love it!

I use this Sunscreen every day on my arms and hands before going out- even on cloudy days. I love the consistency which seems to absorb into my skin. I even travel with it. Love it.

For years I couldn't get my husband to use sunscreen. This product is the only one he will use as water resistant and doesn't sting his eyes when he sweats. We always have it with us on vacation and in the car too!

This is a mineral spf so it does have a slight white cast but it’s not terrible. Texture is nice, no irritation. I preferred this on my body.

I have tried MANY SPF products, even more seriously after being diagnosed with a melanoma. This product really covers well, and stays on!!! It does go on "white", but will blend in after some rubbing. I use it particularly on arms and legs. It is great for swimming because it is waterproof. I love that there is no coconut, or other usual SPF fragrance, which I find unpleasant. It has no fragrance to bother allergies. I consider this a great, reliable SPF.

Active ingredients are mineral/physical, the usual two. I have to use these b/c my skin reacts to chemical screens with lots of inflammation. It’s hard to get away with no white cast whatsoever, but this does about the best job I’ve tried. If you don’t need to use mineral/physical screens, EltaMD has tons of other options.

I have olive skin with a slight tan and this indeed leaves a white cast. However, I just use it when I'm swimming, cycling, or any outdoor activities and it works great. Does not leave a greasy feeling and truly does stay on in the water (it actually takes some effort to scrub off in the shower). I have to use something else all together for my face unless I'm swimming.

The sunscreen is effective but I’m quite surprised at the heavy white residue it leaves. I’ve been very happy with multiple facial sunscreen purchases from EltaMd so I’m a bit surprised by this product. I won’t purchase this item again

I have been using EltaMD facial sunscreen for years, so I decided to try the EltaMD Broad-Spectrum sunscreen for my body. It’s great-lightweight, creamy and most importantly doesn’t leave a white coat on my skin. I highly recommend this product.
