**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.

I have trouble with redness and sensitivity on my neck, especially when I use treatment products -- even treatment products for sensitive skin. This UV Skin Recovery from EltaMD comes the the rescue every time. Even if I am indoors, I use this daily because it calms my irritated skin and heals the problem. The green tint seems to help -- but also the ingredients in the product work to calm the skin more than cosmetically. I have noticed overall improvement in redness over time, and I am repurchasing this product again. Thank you!

I do like this sunscreen for while my skin is recovering from redness. It does help with that. I think it makes me breakout a little but not so much that I haven’t repurchased. Feels thicker than a moisturizer (like a typical sunscreen) but is definitely not irritating upon application like sooo many sunscreens I’ve tried on my dry sensitive skin. It’s my 3rd favorite sunscreen, favorite green one

It really works well calming red appearance on my face from rosacea. Plus the added benefit of SPF. Terrific combination, does what it says. Elta MD is the best for anyone suffering from rosacea. 'Will definitely buy again.

I normally use the tinted one but decided to try the green one since I do have some facial redness. This works just as good and blends in nicely.

The green shade reduces redness and all good ingredients support skin health and prevent sun damage. Goes on easily and smoothly, not oily or thick. Skin looks great. Love this product.

A 100% mineral sunscreen that truly leaves no white cast, given the green tint. Doesn't leave you looking green either, but does camouflage redness pretty well. Far less drying than other mineral sunscreens I've tried. Others have affected my skin barrier b/c they're like wearing a clay mask and absorb moisture from my skin. I still use a moisturizer before applying this, but I can reapply without it, and this truly leaves my face looking like I've not spent my day next to a window. Usually when I've found a sunscreen that works for me the company discontinues it. Sure hope they keep this going.

I have been reordering this sunscreen. I am on my second bottle. It goes on so smoothly, and is not thick or sticky. It doesn’t leave a greenish cast and doesn’t transfer onto clothing. It really does help calm the skin. It’s moisturizing as well.

Love this and works so well for a compromised skin barrier due to actives. Melts into skin and color blends out well.

My dermatologist recommended this product so I took a chance and ordered a bottle. I have used it now several times and am completely satisfied with the sun protection and how it blends into my fair skin. A bit pricey, but it is a recommended product.

My skin becomes red easily. The green base to this sunscreen helps minimize the excessive coloring on my face but I appreciate the color mitigation on my neck and décolleté where I don’t generally use makeup.

I like that this is designed for sensitive skin. The green tint doesnt do much for me, so for a couple if dollars less, Ive opted for the non tint.

I love the other eltaMd products but for some reason this one clogs my oil glands at my eye lashes. This product with the green tint is the only product that I was using when I got an infection in one eye’s oil gland and when I got an infection in the other eye. I stopped using this product in between.

I received samples of this product from an Elta MD Representative who was at my skin doctor’s office at the time of my visit. I was hesitant about the green shade of it, but she insisted I would love the way it felt on my skin. She was right, and I have switched to this product from my other Elta MD total physical sunscreen product’s for my face. I mix this with a slight bit of my favorite foundation and apply it entirely over my face and decollate . It does not slide off as the day goes on; nor feel tacky. I have ordered this twice now. That’s how much I love it. I am much more apt to reapply this during the day because it does not feel like I’m layering upon layering.

I’ve tried a lot of sunscreens and most either irritate my skin or feel too heavy, but this one has been different. Before using it, my skin would get red easily and look greasy by midday. After using this consistently, my skin looks calmer and more even, and I don’t feel the need to wear foundation every day. The texture is lightweight, blends quickly, and leaves no white cast. The tint is very natural but helps reduce redness just enough to make a visible difference. I also live in a humid climate, and this doesn’t clog my pores or cause breakouts. It actually feels soothing when applied. It layers well under makeup with no pilling, which is a big plus. I would recommend this to anyone with sensitive or redness-prone skin who wants a sunscreen that feels comfortable enough to use every day. Definitely repurchasing.

This is a new product for me and it is a nice, lightweight formula that really does ‘take the red out’ of the complexion. Certainly recommend for redness muting.

Love the SPF 50 and the green tint. My husbands fair skin doesn’t tan brown, but a ruddy Irish red. This minimizes the red appearance.
