Reviews For EltaMD UV Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 46 Facial Sunscreen
Almost Perfect!
I understand why so many people love this sunscreen. It feels elegant, absorbs quickly, does not leave a white cast, and does not cause breakouts. However, I have found that applying serums and/or moisturizers beforehand can cause the sunscreen to pill. Therefore, I like to use this sunscreen by itself to avoid any pilling. It is usually moisturizing enough for my oily skin, but I switch to a different sunscreen when my skin feels drier.

Best sunscreen I've found so far
It doesn't break me out and I have really sensitive skin. The sunscreen was recommended to me by my dermatologist years ago and I've been using it ever since. I'm glad LovelySkin carries it. I wear it daily and the bottle lasts a long time. It has a bit of a white cast to it, not the worst, but it does make my skin a little pale when I put it on which is the only reason I'm giving it 4/5 stars.

My go-to
I experiment with different sunscreens, but I always come back to EltaMD 46 and keep a bottle around. It’s fragrance free, non irritating, moisturizing without being greasy, and from everything I’ve read has beneficial ingredients. I do have a concern about the octinoxate in it, which is why I experiment with other formulations and why I gave it 4 stars.

Very nice!
Great sunscreen! Goes on smoothly without irritation, nor a white cast to the finish. Does a good job of providing protection. Worth the price!

Good sunscreen
Protect the skin from the sun, it didn't give me any breakouts but it does have little white cast. I really like the pump it comes in - very nice to use.

Great sunscreen
This is a great product to wear alone or under makeup. It is tinted, but the coverage is pretty light. Doesn't feel greasy or heavy, and for days that I'm not looking to wear a face full of makeup it's perfect to wear alone. I have combination/acne prone skin and it doesn't cause breakouts.

Good stuff
I love this sunscreen not only for the protection but for the ingredients. My face needs the moisture and the niacinamide. I gave it 4 stars just because I would love just a bit more coverage. Regardless, it's the one product I use every day.

Amazing
The best sunscreen I’ve used and I’m a Fitzpatrick VI. The tint is great and it leaves no cast. The only downside is I’m in Canada and this isn’t shipped to Canada and I don’t want to buy from Amazon and so I have LovelySkin ship to my friend in the US and he mails it to me. Long process but worth it! Lovely skin ship to Canada soon please!! :) 4 star because of the shipping hassle

EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 Sunscreen
My teenage granddaughter recommended this product to me, and I love it! I actually look forward to applying it in the morning. It blends in easily and does not have a greasy look, even by the end of the day. Also, it cleared my pores, including the ones on the side of my nose, and this began with the very first use. My pores are now almost invisible due to this sunscreen. It contains niacinamide which I have read is very beneficial to the skin. I believe, over time, it helps to fade brown discolorations. My granddaughter said that her freckles are much lighter since using this sunscreen. I think my skin looks much prettier since I began using it, too. I gave it a 4-star rating, but I wanted to give it a 5-star rating. The only reason I did not is the price. The price is a little high for me, especially considering the size of the bottle.

Good sunscreen but prefer the physical one
It’s nice to put sometimes. Less heavy than the physical.

Great for tan and sensitive skin
I have rosacea and medium brown skin and this has been a great sunscreen for me. The niacinamide in it calms my skin and the tint helps cover some of the redness without leaving a white cast. I would rate it 5 stars if it was completely mineral based and didn’t pill up on the skin so easy.

Not bad
I do like this product, the only reason it's not is because its not 100% mineral sunscreen.

Great for calming skin
This does reduce my redness significantly and I have roseca flare ups. It doesn’t ever burn when I apply it like some facial sunscreens do.

My dermatologist's recommendation
Great sunscreen. It burns a little bit but if I use hyaluronic acid first and then apply the sunscreen it works well!

Great tinted sunscreen for breakout prone skin
I bought this for my teenage daughter to surf. It is waterproof for a about 1-2 hours. The ingredients are great for her breakout prone skin. The tint is best for light complexions so I wish there were different colors to choose from.

Does the job
I love this, great product but I wish it didn’t dry out my skin and create balls of sunscreen patches near my hairline. It’s hard using makeup over because I get more balls of makeup and sunscreen toward my hairline and have to use a brush and wipe it all away. Advice - use as little as possible to avoid this!

The best facial sunscreen!
If you have sensitive skin or are acne prone then this is your sunscreen! It applies smoothly under makeup and never irritates my skin. I wear this every single day and found that it helps my skin stay healthy. I would of given it five stars, but the price is steep for what you get. Either way I will continue to purchase it because it’s truly the best.

Great
This sunscreen is great. I accidentally ordered this thinking it was the un-tinted version. I knock off 1 star because I am pale and have to be diligent about blending it. It had an add smell, otherwise it works great for days I work from home and don't need any makeup.
