Reviews For EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Facial Sunscreen (Tinted and Untinted)
Really like this except tint is a bit orange
This goes on so easily and doesn't feel greasy. The tint is a bit strange if applied twell-it leans a bit orange and is dark on my light skin. In most light it isn't noticeable, but when outside in bright light it might be. Occasionally it burns my skin a bit and makes it red for the first 20 minutes or so after application, but it goes away. I keep buying since it's quick to apply and reapplys well.

Good but
Good product and non irritating, but sadly it does have a tendency to pill on my neck area.

Picky about Sunscreens!
I have always had a problem finding the perfect sunscreen— although this one isn’t perfect, it comes close: sheer finish, low price, good SPF, dependable brand. My only complaint is the shine afterwards but I layer the Colorscience powder SPF on top and boom — good to go!

Love this!
Have been using this for years and absolutely love the tinted version. I love the texture. The only criticism is the tint does not provide enough coverage for scars and hyperpigmentation. I wish it did a better job so that I didn’t have to use makeup especially for daily use.

Second order!
This is an easy to use, fragrance free sunscreen that is easy to use and absorbs into my skin quickly. I recommend it.

Go To Daily Sunscreen
This is my go-to daily sunscreen. I apply it after my pigment correcting serum and Elta AM moisturizer. I definitely feel protected from the sun while wearing this, I can safely spend an afternoon in the sun without getting burned. The only reason I am rating this 4 instead of 5 stars is that it can sometimes "pill" off my skin. I notice it more on my lower cheek / jawline area. This may be due to applying too much, or not waiting for my other products to dry, but there you have it. 4 stars, sun protection, wearable under makeup, slight "pill'age.

Good, have used better
I was recommended this product and see many people rave about it. It's good, but I prefer Image's product better. This left my skin somewhat dry which was surprising.

Good sunscreen
I have sensitive, acne-prone skin, and this does not irritate it. I used the untinted version, and it blended better than I expected. I wish that the Clear version came in SPF 30 instead of 46. To me though, while I didn’t feel that it was at all greasy like normal sunscreen, it felt a bit heavy for my skin and more like something that I would use before a long day in the sun versus one that I would comfortably wear every day.

Untinted version
First time using this product, therefore comparing it to my previous EltaMD sunscreen. I have used EltaMD UV Sheer Broad Spectrum SPF 50 prior to and liked it, but I decided to give this one a try based on the high review ratings. I found that this product has a consistency that is a bit thicker and heavier than the other. It is also transparent on the face. Once I continue to use it more I can make a better judgement of which one I like better.

Great for break out prone skin.
I got the tinted version of this in hopes to use it as an every day, natural look, make up. It doesn't really provide coverage, but it does give you a super healthy glow in a non greasy way! So I just use a little concealer for any uneven areas and it's great! It has not made me break out and that is always my biggest concern with any face products. Seems to be lasting a while too. Will most likely repurchase!

Glowy SPF
I love this product because it goes on super smooth and is 46 SPF. It has a slight tint to it- you may still need makeup, but it's a good base. I like that it doesn't give you a white-cast. It is very glowy and may not be best for super oily skin types.

Great sunscreen
This product really protects my face and neck from the harmful rays. I like the one with tint better however. This one is clear.

Excellent daily SPF
I've used the Elta MD UV Clear for years as my daily SPF. It's a wonderful profuct alone or under makeup and perfect if you're acne prone...a little pricey though.

Mostly all good!
I love the ease of using this product. I squeeze some out and apply on my face with my fingertips. Easy to spread, doesn't look fakey or messy. Cost is reasonable.. The ingredients are non harmful and I like that it has niacinamide in it. The only negative is there is only one shade, so if it's too light or dark, there's no other choice. Will definitely buy again due to protection and ease.

Light and Lovely Sunscreen
I really like this sunscreen. It’s super light and blends extremely well into my skin. It also doesn’t feel like you have anything on after applying, so it should be good for make-up wearers too. I gave 4 stars because the product exploded in the box on the first shipment. Customer service was very good at replacing it, though. Great stuff!

EltaMD Sunscreen Is Best
Having tried many sunscreens in my time (and wishing I had started using sunscreen sooner than I did) I have to say that this sunscreen, tinted and untinted is truly the best. It goes on smooth, not greasy and absorbs into your skin right away but doesn't feel dry. I do not feel the need for a moisturizer after I apply this in the morning so my makeup glides on just fine when applied immediately after my EltaMd sunscreen. I now buy for it for my 20+ yr. old grandchildren so they can start on this great habit of using sunscreen. I took one star away only because I do not believe EltaMD is cruelty free :(

Good daily sunscreen
A good daily sunscreen. I wear it over my moisturizer. It absorbs quickly and it not greasy. I do feel like it needs to be reapplied after a few hours and doesn’t last all day.

Okay
This is okay but pro it does apply smoothly and feels like a serum. If I recall correctly, it does look shiny after applying

Great for acne prone skin
This is my "go-to" sunscreen. My skin is oily and I break out if sunscreen is too heavy or contains a tint. This sunscreen is lightweight and absorbs quickly. It can be used alone or under makeup. I would have given it 5 stars, but it is not water resistant.
