**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.

It really does reduce redness!

This really does reduce redness! I don't have rosacea but do periodically get laser treatment and (more recently) micro-needling, all of which make me VERY red in the face for several days. This reduces the redness and actually helps the skin recover from the treatment. This a another great sunscreen from EltaMD!

Doesn't do a thing to cover flushing from rosacea

I've been using ELTA MD's EltaMD UV Skin Recovery Broad Spectrum SPF 50 untinted and loving it. Decided to also try the green for the days when my rosacea flushing flares ares are more noticeable. While both are very light - but do a great job - the green seems watery by comparison to their untinted variety. LovelySkin customer service confirmed this when I called to inquire. Either way, the fact that the green tone it does nothing to neutralize the red rules it out for me. FYI, I'm a 75 y/o Caucasian.

Soothing

I find this very soothing to my sensitive skin. I also love that it leaves no residue and makes my skin feel soft, despite being SPF 50! Sun protection is very important to me. The green tint may somewhat lessen my redness, but more important for me is that it cools the heat associated with my rosacea and leaves my skin soft and not irritated. Others though may be a little disappointed in its ability to decrease redness, hence, 4 stars. I will very likely purchase again.

My new go-to facial sunscreen

I really like this new EltaMD sunscreen formulation. I had been using the EltaMD Clear facial sunscreen for years, but was pleased to see news of this product with a higher SPF and a green tint to help lessen redness from tiny broken capillaries, etc. I decided to try it. It is a light lotion, green in tint. It goes on smoothly, and absorbs quickly. The green color totally disappears on the skin, and it does diminish the appearance of redness on my cheeks. It's a very nice product. I have reordered it.

Great product!

I received this as a sample with another order and loved it so much that I ordered it. It does tone down redness, is non-greasy, seems long lasting, and feels great on skin.

Tried it and not a fan

I have pink undertones on my face and decided to try this product. Unfortunately, it doesn't deliver the results it claims. The green tint doesn't neutralize the pink and the product forms clumps after you apply it on your face making it a challenge to apply makeup. I'm going to continue using a sunscreen from a different brand. Not only does it do a better job at minimizing the pink on my face, but it goes on smooth and doesn't form clumps.

Great Sunscreen

This sunscreen is amazing. It calms my rosacea down, looks great under makeup and keeps me from getting too much sun. I have used almost every Elta MD sunscreen and this one is the BEST!!

Win on spf and redness reduction

I did not purchase this myself, but for a friend who is dealing with a lot of rosacea, and redness related to some medication that she is on. It really seems to have tone down her redness, it’s not irritated her skin. She told me that her dermatologist gave me the thumbs up for the recommendation.

Wonderful sunscreen !

I have rosacea and a complexion that gets upset at most creams and cosmetics that it comes in contact with. I recently discovered and love the uv recovery sunscreen with the green tint! The sunscreen is gentle, light, has almost no odor and the green, rather than making me look like a frog, masks the red in my face. My favorite sunscreen, by a lot!

EltaMD UV Skin Recovery SPF50 - Green Tint for Redness

What a great product! I wasn't sure if this would work on my Rosacea, but I have to say it is very calming and tones down the redness. It's great that it's a moisturizer as well as a sunscreen, so you get two for the price of one!

Wanted to Like

No smell I can detect, green tint that is undetectable, and cooling soothing feeling-at first. After a few days, I noticed irritation (I have mild rosacea and very sensitive skin)-so I ended up using the rest on my arms as sun protection. I am unsure what caused the reaction. I just went back to my Elta MD SPF35 for face-I've been using for years with no problems.

The Perfect Shield for Redness and Sun Protection,

I recently tried the EltaMD UV Skin Recovery Broad-Spectrum SPF 50 with a green tint, and I'm absolutely loving it! The green tint is a game-changer for reducing redness, giving my skin a more even tone instantly. It also provides excellent sun protection without feeling heavy or greasy. Plus, it’s super gentle on the skin. This has definitely become a staple in my daily routine!

Product texture is amazing

I've tried several of the mineral elta MD products and this has been my favorite so far, namely because of the texture. I think it most closely resembles UV Clear. You can reapply this throughout the day without it feeling like it's building up and caked on. I use this on slightly damp skin it just melts into my face and it's so easy to smooth on. I don't feel like it tugs on my skin like some thicker SPFs I've tried. I have significant redness in my cheeks and I think the color corrector works best on days when my skin is on the less red end of the spectrum. However, after consistent use I do think it's helped with the overall redness but it hasn't been as significant as I would have hoped which is why I gave it 4 stars. I may try the non-color corrector option to see if it makes a difference. I 100% recommend this product!

Definitely green

The greenish tint is light so I recommend spot using it because using it over my whole face (I am very pale) actually made me look green!

Love the Green!

I love this new green colored sun protector! Not only does it protect my skin from the sun, it makes my skin look amazing and even toned. I’m an artist and, when painting a portrait, I often add green in flesh tones to bring the flesh color to life. I’m so glad someone finally figured out to add it into skin care!
