Not good
I do not like this at all. It makes my face look like a rash all over and blotchy.

Color is odd
I am fair skinned and was hoping this product would give me just a little color. I put it on and removed immediately. Color is odd and I cannot wear it.

Not so great.
Not so great. It just sat on my face and got absorbed. My daughter also broke out from it. And I used it on my 12 year old son , he asked me what I put on his face and he was not happy with it.

It made my face itchy.
I have sensitive skin that is prone to acne, so I thought I would give this product a try. Unfortunately, it made my skin itchy and even more oily. If I kept the box, I would return it

Orange tint
The tint of this sunscreen is very orange. I am able to mix it with the UV clear SPF from EltaMD and it neutralizes it well. It also irritates and breaks out my skin whereas the UV clear does not. I will not repurchase.

Wish it worked for my skin!
I bought this sunscreen based on all the great reviews as I am very careful on what I use on my acne prone skin. Unfortunately this broke me out badly so I threw it away as this was the only new product I had introduced in my skincare routine. My hunt for the perfect sunscreen that won’t break me out continues.

Immediately Caused Breakouts
I bought this sunscreen because of the great reviews and the fact that it is formulated for acne prone skin. Unfortunately it caused breakouts within a day of application.

Too dry for my skin
Having practically no oil on my skin, this product created a dry, itchy reaction. I am going to look to see if you have a gel version. Also, I am unable to remove the sunblock and makeup with usual facial cleansers. Do you have a suggestion?

Disappointed
I have the untinted version of this sunscreen and loved it so much that I figured having a little bit of sheer coverage from the tint might also be a nice perk. For the first 2 weeks, I thought it was feeling nice, but I'm starting to break out in smaller CCs and also bigger cystic acne. This DOES NOT play well with other moisturizers or makeup. It also leaves this terrible sticky, chalky feeling on your face that gets worse throughout the day. Overall, pretty disappointed.

Not for me!
This product is the only product I have ever had to return to my favorite LovelySkin The tint is way to brown for my skin tone and it makes me face shiny.

Not for my skin!
I purchased this when I was diagnosed with rosacea because my derm said that I needed to use a physical blocker as opposed to a chemical one. I did loads of research and found that everyone seems to believe this is the holy grail of sunscreen so I was really excited to get the package in the mail. Unfortunately, after 2 uses my face broke out in a horrible rash. I'm super bummed out that it didn't work for me but am very grateful that LovelySkin allowed me to return the product.

Streaky
The lotion is too thin to cover your face evenly in the same shade. It streaks. The non tinted version is awesome but the tinted version is not worth your money

Leaves my face very shiny >_<
I bought this product based on the great reviews I saw and that it's specifically for people with Rosacea. Unfortunately, I am returning it as it leaves my skin very very shiny. Plus the tint is too dark for my light complexion. Really wanted to love it but it just doesn't work on me =(

Did Not Agree with My Skin
As an adult my skin is very fair, sensitive, and acne prone, and I was searching for a new sunscreen. I have heard very good reviews on the Clear Elta MD so thought to give it a try. I used the product for 2 days and my skin had a very bad reaction. My skin broke out more and turned very red. It was weird because the product did not sting when I applied it to my skin. It was only after a couple of hours that it turned very red and broke me out all over. Now, I'm using sulfur ointment to help calm down the redness and reduce the acne. It is unfortunate because I had hope for this product. I will have to return.

Lovely but...
Loved the sample. Beautiful finish, best natural glow of any "makeup" I've ever used. Bought the full size. A week later - cysts. I loved it so much I tried to convince myself they were due to something else for 2 months, but in the end, this caused horrific breakouts.

Disappointed
I purchased this product to completely cover up my entire face. I tested a patch on side of face and it did not completely give me sun protection..

Wanted to love it...
I am an avid user of sunscreens and based upon the reviews I thought this would be great. I have applied it in several different ways with and without moisturizer and with and without makeup. No matter what I do, the product pills on me. So disappointed and frustrated in the morning when makeup is my last step getting ready and I have to take it ALL off and start over. I have mostly oily skin and am pretty much allergic to nothing. Age is 50+.

I REALLY wanted to like this
Given so many positive reviews, I had high hopes for this sunscreen. Unfortunately, after using it only 2 days in a row I broke out all over my T zone.

Too Sticky, too expensive!!!
So disappointing. It leaves a bit of a shine on your skin. Until it soaks in, it is very sticky. I dont like it at all and I am a huge fan of all Elta MD products.
