Reviews For EltaMD UV Pure Broad Spectrum SPF 47 Face and Body Sunscreen
Disappointing
Have used EltaMD Sunscreen SPF 46 happily for 25 yrs. Because it has been discontinued, I used this product. I am allergic due to the added ingredient to make it water-resistant. Even if I wasn't allergic, I wouldn't use it because I don't want anything I put on my face to be water-resistant. In addition, they have reduced the size of the product to a trial size amount for the same price. Truly a bad decision to discontinue the other product.

Very effective but a bit white on the face
I'm fair and need protection after 70 years of living at the seashore during summer months. My dermatologist highly recommends Elta MD products. Typically, I use the SPF 40 face sunscreen, occasionally the 45. Both are easily absorbed. This 47 is for face and body and is a bit sticky. The zinc oxide does show slightly. Removing it from my face required a good cleanser, followed by a clarifying lotion. I do recommend for those who need excellent sun protection.

My Favorite Sunscreen
I have tried many sunscreens and this one is my favorite. It goes on smoothly without leaving a white cast. It’s not too thick and doesn’t irritate my skin or cause breakouts.

Best sunscreen for me
This is pure without all the chemicals. Titanium dioxide and zinc so it really works. I live in Florida so I really need the physical sunscreen and waterproof because I walk and bike. My dermatologist has recommended this for years.

EltaMD SPF 47 sunscreen
This is great sunscreen that is mineral based. It doesn’t irritate and works well with my skin tone. (The tinted one is too dark for my skin)

I bought this sun block as my dermatologist recommended it for my grandchildren. However, I tried it on myself and have continued to use it. I love it!!

Husbands Favorite
Husband is an avid golfer and the last brand he used started running in his eyes and burning them. I bought this for him, he tried it and loves it. Hasn’t had and issues with burning eyes since! Plus no sunburn!

Nice and pure
I became a big fan of Elta. Love natural ingredients. Sunscreen is very lightweight. Absorbs quickly. Does not make my face white. Just wait a minute to absorb. Great protection for sunny Florida.

All time favorite
I have been using this for years and LovelySkin has the best price always. I will try other sunscreens that are trending but I always come back to this. I always have a bottle or two in my cabinet. No fragrance, non irritating, does not sting, does not bother eye area so I can use on eyelids. I do have to work it in to get rid of white cast but I have never burned when I use this sunscreen.

Great Sunsreen
This sunscreen is a bit more difficult to rub in but it goes on non-greasy and once absorbed, it does the trick! We used it in the Caribbean and neither of us had a sunburn after spending lots of time on the beaches.

Highly recommended…..but…..
This product was highly recommended by my aesthetician. In fact it was among the top 3 as it was a mineral sunscreen proven over and over to be most effective. I live in the southwest, love being outdoors and in the pool, so I desperately need strong effective protection. This product did provide everything it said it would but I could not get it to blend in no matter what I tried. It was fine for the pool in the backyard or riding my bike but I didn’t feel comfortable going out in public with a ghostly white cast to my skin. I returned the product.

What the ????? Samples MUCH different than the actual product
I don't get it. I used multiple samples of this from my dermatologist and loved it. Yes, it went on REALLY, REALLY white but that eventually absorbed in and I was left with a relatively nice feeling product on my face. It had almost zero scent as well, so I decided to order it. What I received seems different than the samples. The first thing I noticed was the consistency.... The samples were pretty thick but the actual product I received was pretty runny. The second thing I noticed was the slight sunscreen smell that the samples did NOT have. I thought maybe it was all my imagination so I went ahead and used it on my face. Although it went on extremely white (just as the samples did) it never absorbed and left my face feeling extremely dry and itchy. By the end of the day I couldn't wait to wash it off my face!!! I will NEVER use his product and just don't understand the difference between the samples from my dermatologist and the actual product. Has something changed? Neither the samples nor the product is expired so I'm just confused.

Just OK
I used the now discontinued oil free SPF 45 sunscreen for many years. I have not found an appropriate replacement. This UV Pure SPF 47 is heavier and takes a few minutes before I can put my makeup on, but is better than the others I tried which left a white coating on my skin. I’m very sad the 45 is gone.

Best sunscreen for athletes
Elta MD Pure is my go to sunscreen when I run swim or bike. It stays on in the water or when heavily sweating. I’ve used this for years and am so happy with the results. Will always have this sunscreen on hand.

Love this sunscreen!
A mineral sunscreen that is not too thick! It does have a slight white tint but rubs in and goes away in s short period of time. No scent, good coverage and reef safe!

Great sunscreen
I love this sunscreen because it is (as the name indicates) pure: no added chemical sunscreen ingredients and completely effective as a pure, natural sunscreen.

I love this product!
It has titanium dioxide and I lather it on. I burn so easily and I reapply frequently. No fragrance and does leave a white haze if you apply too much. I over apply as I am very pale.
