Reviews For EltaMD UV Physical Broad Spectrum SPF 41 Lightly Tinted Mineral Sunscreen
My favorite brand of sunscreen
As with all things EltaMD, the Physical Broad Spectrum sunscreen is another great product that I will be including in my arsenal for sun protection, not just for me but for my entire family. I love how you can definitely feel how this sunscreen is protecting your skin from the sun's harmful rays. While I do not think that it is moisturizing enough to be my daily facial SPF, I do know that it is certainly what I am wearing when I know that I am going to have direct exposure to the sun during outdoor activities.

Lovely matte finish, but too drying
I really wanted to make this my new go-to facial sunscreen. It has a nice matte finish and stays in your skin really well. I also like that it has water resistance, which is hard to find in a facial mineral sunscreen. However, like other reviewers experienced, after a week of using this daily my skin started flaking in my cheeks and forehead. It’s summer, and I’m sweating up a storm, plus I have combination skin, so it was such a surprise to see this happen. When I don’t use the sunscreen for a few days the flaking resolves. Such a bummer because other than this side effect I really prefer this sunscreen to any other I’ve tried. Will be falling back on Paula’s Choice mineral sunscreen again, which is not water resistant and does not adhere to the skin as well...

Great facial sunscreen
I've been using this sunscreen for over ten years and have overall been very happy with it. What I like about it are that it's mineral-based, it doesn't cause breakouts, my skin actually feels better when I'm wearing it than when I'm not, a little goes a long way, and it never runs into my eyes. It does leave a bit of a purplish cast though, but usually I find if I rub it in well it's not really noticeable.

Excellent
The only sunscreen I use now! I use a lot less foundation as the tint and coverage is excellent. Now my daughter (23) and son (25) are hooked as well. They received it as a Chanukah gift …and couldn’t have been happier!

Like it
Nice product. I do not need a foundation when I wear this. It’s light weight, comfortable and does not burn my eyes. I purchased for a great price. Will definitely buy it again.

Excellent sunscreen
I have been using EltaMD sunscreen for several years. This one is called “light”, referring to the color. I prefer the one I used before. However this is still an excellent product. Even gives you some coverage.

Very lightweight. Best for oily skin
Not to be used as a moisturizer. I feel it dries my skin so I have to wear it on top of my moisturizer. I’m very light skin toned and can’t see any tint.

Tinted Sunscreen-Perfect!
This Tinted Sunscreen is the best of both worlds- sunscreen protection & just a tint of color- kissed by the sun! But great protection too!

Great sunscreen
I really love this sunscreen. I typically get the Elta MD UV Replenish sunscreen which is also great but there is a lot more product in the UV physical. It goes in very smooth and not too dry. I will repurchase it as soon as I’m done. My skin didn’t break out and the tinted matched my face very well.

The best!
Love this sunscreen! It works great for my sensitive skin (doesn’t cause breakouts), is super creamy, lightweight, and easy to apply. The slight tint let’s you wear it alone (without makeup) with no white residue. Even my husband wears it, and prefers it, over other sunscreens for his face. Highly recommend.

Perfect!
I have been using EltaMD UV Clear for awhile and love it for my acne prone skin, but I was looking for something that was more mattifying as I have oily skin during the summer months. THIS IS IT! This works perfectly with my oily/acne prone skin and most of the time I don't feel the need to use foundation. It's a great product, I'm so happy I found this.

Best Chemical Free Facial Sunscreen Ever
This is a truly wonderful sunscreen brand and sunscreen product. I have been using this for years and years. I love the tint. There is no real color to my skin after using it, but it just blends beautifully and doesn't leave any residue or sticky feeling. The protection it provides is wonderful and I feel like my skin is really getting the best sunscreen it can. I apply it first thing in the morning, and do apply it throughout the day, right over my morning makeup, and it just glides over. I am 56, but still have some oily spots on my skin, and I feel this doesn't make me break out or give me a rash at all. It really is a wonderful sunscreen.

A staple
Always come back to this when I can't find the perfect sunscreen. It's a little light for darker skin tones, however, it matches most tones. I am looking for a sunscreen without tint though.

Nice but I wish it was darker
I do like this sunscreen. It feels good on my face, not heavy or sticky. And I have not had any kind of reaction to it. My only complaint is the color. It’s much too light for me in the summer. It will be better for me as a winter sunscreen.

Formula feels light on my skin. Haven't experienced breakouts, which have been a side effect from similar "sensitive skin" products. Applying daily to keep my melasma at bay :)

Tint too light
The sunscreen is good, but the tinting is a bit too light for my skin. That being said, I am of South Asian descent, so if you are around that skin tone, this would be too light. If you are of a different descent looking for a sunscreen that won't be too dark for you, this might be a good one for you.

Great sunscreen
I have been using this for several years based on dermatologist recommendation. It’s no greasy and I use it a base daily.
