Reviews For EltaMD UV Active Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Mineral Full Body Sunscreen
Great for my bike rides
I used EltaMD a couple of years ago, but I changed to a dermatologist who did not carry it - I was so happy to find this site! I ride a bike 4 hours at a time (my job) in the Texas sun and this product is up to the task. I apply a light touch of brush-on bronzer to take care of the whitish tinge.

Great protection
This sunscreen has offered great protection on our vacation. It is a little hard to rub in at first but overall I would buy it again!

No White Cast
My husband does not like white cast and this product he is happy so I bought another for me. Wow!! when I used it is so good. I run few miles every day and at the end of the workout, I don't see my face with a white cast (as I saw it with another brand). And as a bonus, it has Vitamin C--to protect it. This is definitely a keeper.

Love this EltaMD Suncreen!
I am big walker outside especially in the summer and sun. So having something I can put my arms and legs when I am outside is great. Needs to protect from the sun.

Only Sunscreen I use
This is a great sunscreen. Basic ingredients that from all that I've read, are safe for people and the ocean. While using this sunscreen, I've never burned and I burn easily. Highly recommended.

EltaMD UV Active sunscreen
Living in Hawaii the sun is very intense! My Dermatologist recommended this and I absolutely love it! Leaves a little “whitish” coating but that’s ok, it’s better than burning.

Love!!
The best sunscreen that is actually good for your skin and is NOT greasy nor turns everything you touch white! Use it on my hands before driving and my steering wheel is not slimy and stays black.

Great product for Extreme Sun
I like the thick zinc oxide sunscreen to play tennis in full sun in Hawaii. Perfect for my face! Also for the beach. I don't use it on my body because it would be too hard to apply for all other areas. Lasts a long time. Perfect for my needs.

Great solution for sun allergy
My husband has a sun allergy. This product is great to help him protect his skin while out in the sun. He doesn't have the kind of reaction he normally has. The zinc oxide is the key, yet it's not like the older versions that were visibly/completely opaque. No one can see the product on the skin. Great solution!

High protection for outdoors
This is great for outdoor activities because it offers high protection and is waterproof. I wore this (face and body) on a four day camping trip near the Rio Grande and did not tan or burn despite the hours spent under the sun. For such a high percentage of mineral actives, it spreads easily and is moisturizing. I feel very protected wearing this and will make it my primary body/outdoor activities SPF. I would not use on my face everyday because it does make my skin whiter upon initial application. However, it does NOT break me out or pill on bare skin or over moisturizer.

This is the bomb!
I wear this every day! Doesn’t run in my eyes. It is moisturizing as well. Definitely going to order again!

My dermatologist recommended this sunscreen
I have hyperpigmentation on my face and chest and was hoping so badly that it would prevent future pigmentation from appearing, unfortunately it didn’t. I reapplied several times throughout the day and still got some new pigmentation of my face and chest. My husband really likes it and feels it works great. His face sunburns easily although the rest of him tans, this did a great job no sunburns and doesn’t clog his pores.

Amazing
After a BCC diagnoses, an excision, tons of stitches and a forever scar on my chest, zinc oxide based sunscreen is a must! I have been through tons of zinc oxide based sunscreen and I must say, I feel 100% protected when wearing this! I LOVE the high amount of zinc! Zinc is a MUST when it comes to sunscreen. And sunscreen should be worn. rain or shine! I use it on myself and my 3 year old son every single day ! Hopefully I'll get my husband on board soon with daily sunscreen use. It is pretty thick so I warm it up in my hands before applying and that makes it super easy to apply to my skin. Can't say enough good things about this and I hope they make it forever!!

Best sunblock for outdoor activities!
I live the n Florida, and love being outdoors. I also love keeping my 51 year old skin healthy and young looking. Thirdly, I am very particular about what I put on my sometimes sensitive skin, and try to avoid harmful chemicals as best as I can. Let me tell you- what a dilemma!!! I have tried many many many sunscreens that fit these requirements, and have found a few that made me relatively happy, albeit they have always left a greasy residue (not fun when you are exercising in unrelenting sun). Yes, they have provided protection, but have also left my skin clogged and congested. I had ordered some stuff off of LovelySkin, and received a sample of this sunscreen. Wow, I was hooked to the point that five minutes after application, I had placed an order for a full size tube! Yes, it does come out a bit thick, but nothing you can’t fix by working it a little into the skin. It leaves a slight very sheer whitish film, but it dries COMPLETELY. It was great even through a mega paddle board sweat session in high 80 degree weather and high humidity. No greasy oily anything, my pores were so happy. Granted, I am looking at this as a true utilitarian tool for sun protection against very unforgiving sun rays here in Florida. It does the job splendidly and “un-greasily”!! Perhaps if you are looking at more of a daily under your makeup kind of sunblock for the face, try EltaMDs sunscreen for that application. It’s also fabulous and I use mine as a foundation. However, cannot recommend the sport block enough as a true sunscreen for outdoor pursuits. It’s the best!!
