EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46
Great consistency and great for acne prone skin!! It does not make my pores feel clogged and it goes on great over my daily moisturizer. The only reason why I am giving it 4 stars is because I wish it lasted longer. Directions say to reapply every 2 hours throughout the day.

great for sensitive skin
I have both acne and dry, sensitive skin, and my dermatologist suggested this as a combination skin-calming lotion + sunblock. First I used the original one, without tint, and then thought I'd try the tinted one. The consistency is still nice and light, and the color works with my slightly olive complexion. It can sometimes look a little greasy, and if you have broken veins or any redness, as I do, this coverage is too light to hide such blemishes. But it is still a really nice lotion that feels good on my skin.

Like it, more than love it
I really like how light weight it feels and it's not greasy at all. I've used other tinted SPF moisturizers and they would give me light cover up, but this one has no cover up. So, what I like about it is also what I don't. I haven't used it long enough to see how effective it is as a sunscreen or for my blemishes "acne". I've been using mineral powder with 15 spf on top for a little more "blemish" cover up.

Light tint with sun protection
My dermatologist recommended this with zinc oxide to protect my scars from darkening. Ive used the into yes version for years with great results. It absorbs into my face easily but has a minor oily residue feel until dry. Great sun protection but not water-resistant.

Elta MD UV Cleart Broad-Spectrum SPF46 Sunscreen untinted
One of the best sunblocks I have ever used. Great for oily skin. Doesn't make me breakout. Feels light and non greasy. Great for southern beach sun exposure too.

No white face
This is a great sunscreen brand. I like this but wish it were a tad bit more moisturizing. It's a good size to carry in my gym bag. And you won't look like a ghost.

Good sunscreen
Texture is nice. Not greasy. It absorbs well and the tint is a plus. You do not get the ghostly look. However the color was a tad bit too dark for my skin tone, so I mixed it with the same suncreen's untinted version before I applied it.

Great for oily skin
I have been trying to find spf 30+ products for a few years that are light and do not add shine to my already oily skin. This is the first product I've found that really fits the bill. I do actually think it does something for the redness as advertised and creates a nice smooth finish for wearing under makeup. NOTE: you should let it sit and dry to attain a more matte finish.

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen - Tinted
This is a great product, and I use it every day on my face and neck. I don't need to wear makeup because this gives me a little color. I prefer it to the untinted one that I used previously.

nice product
happy to have found a sunscreen that goes on with a smooth finish and dries without leaving a shiny or sticky residue so you can easily put it under your makeup. i tried the tinted version and it goes on very sheer so as to not deposit too much color on the face. if you are looking for a tinted sunscreen that provides more coverage (color wise), this might not be the one for you...but for me i love the feel of it on my face when i don't want to use foundation.

Great product!
One of my favorite sunscreens! Left a matte finish and did not feel oily. It absorbs well and I didn't get burnt. I would highly recommend this product.

So far, so good!
I have suffered with acne since I was a teenager, and, along with adult acne, I was "lucky" enough to develop melasma as well. I've had laser treatment to help with my melasma, but was told I would have to wear sunscreen daily ... Really?! The only thing I knew sunscreen would do is cause more and more acne breakouts! A friend introduced to me EltaMD products, told me she loved them, and that I should try them out. Well, I've used this product for about 2 full weeks now and have not had any trouble with acne breakouts! My skin actually feels great, doesn't look oily, and I also feel good knowing I'm protecting my skin from any more sun damage all with one product!! Thank you EltaMD for thinking of those of us with very sensitive skin!!

So far, quite good
I've only been using this for a week so far, so I can't speak to its long-term effect on acne compared with other sunscreens, but I like using the product. One pump seems to be the perfect amount to cover my face. The tint matches my skin just fine no major coverage, but looks smoother than bare skin. I wish it dried a little more matte, but it's not bad. I like that it contains lactic acid and niacinamide. It spreads easily, and has no discernable odor. I sometimes add bronzer, blush, luminizer, or finishing powder over it, and it doesn't affect any of those, as far as I can tell. I haven't put any other cream or liquid foundations over it. I would try other EltaMD products, seems like a good brand.

Great if you have acne or rosacea
I've used this product for years with no problems. However, after using a new retinol product, that made my skin peel a little, I had to temporarily stop using it because it made my skin sting and turn red. Not sure why, maybe the 5% Niacinamide. I went back to using it after a few weeks, with no problems.

Very good product
This is great for the summer, but can sometimes be a tad drying. Overall its still one of the best sunscreens to put on under makeup!

Another Good SPF from Elta MD
This product is recommended in my dermatologist office. I have used the untinted for many years with great success. At first I did not like the tinted. It seemed dark and my complexion is light. I decided to give the tinted a second try. So far it has worked out well. The color very subtly evens out red but does not cover acne or dark circles. It does give a healthy wash of color. I think I will continue to use it, same great formula as the untinted. It would be great if they offer a third shade option at some point.

I like it, but its not perfect
The texture feels light. While it does not seem to add moisture, it doesnt dry my skin, either. It does not sting my eyes. I like that it has a high percentage of zinc oxide, though if I look carefully, a faint tinge of white is evident on my medium skin. My main complaint is that I cannot layer it over SkinMedica C+E serum. Ive experimented with varying amounts and dry-times of the serum, but I think the ingredients (probably the silicones) just dont meld well and instead create particles on my face that are not easily brushed away. On clean, bare skin, I do like this product.
