Reviews For EltaMD UV Sheer Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Face and Body Sunscreen
Excellent sunscreen for under makeup or alone.
I have been using this sunscreen for 2 years. I used to use tinted but prefer clear under makeup or alone. I also use on neck and chest and arms. My skin has zero spots and I’m in my 60’s. Yes when younger I baked! The fact that it is not tinted is good as it doesn’t get on clothes

EltaMD UV Sheer BS spf 50 Face and Body
I’ve only used this a couple of times but so far like it. It is not thick or heavy as some sunscreens are. It goes on easily and seems to absorb quickly.

Love this formula
Elta sunscreens are the best! This is a nice light formula for the face and neck. Doesn’t break me out which is nice, as a lot of sunscreens that are heavier do cause break outs for me. Highly recommend and would purchase again.

Great sunscreen for outdoor activities.
I love the EltaMD tinted mineral sunscreens, but I'd been searching for a light weight, water resistant sunscreen for workouts and this seems to be it. It absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a sticky or tacky feel. I've even started using it on my forearms and hands when I'm driving in the car because it also absorbs well over my body lotion.

No white coating!
Rubs in completely & doesn’t dry out my skin as much as other physical sunscreens do. A little goes a long way. This is my hairy, Italian husband’s favorite sunscreen!

Light non oily heaven
I’m 38 and not a fan of anything on my face. Shockingly I have never worn makeup and basically a simple wash my face simple gal. That is until recently when my dermatologist urged me to start wearing a daily sunscreen. I have to say this is the best sunscreen product I’ve ever tried. It’s light and non oily. Once it’s on I forget I’ve even applied it. I recommend to anyone looking for an amazing sunscreen!

Good mineral sunscreen
This is probably the sheerest high spf mineral sunscreen I’ve found. It’s not completely sheer. It does require showering to fully remove. It is a very effective sunscreen.

Best sunscreen
A friend told me to try this sunscreen as it was recommended by her dermatologist. I did and it’s a wonderful sunscreen. I spend a lot of time with outdoor sports. This sunscreen does not leave a white glow and more importantly it doesn’t burn my eyes even when sweat is dripping down my face. There’s no greasy feel either. It’s everything I want in a sunscreen!!! Love it!!!

I have found the best facial sun screen!
Let me tell you about EltaMD UV Sheer Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ sun screen. I have used many sun screens over the years. At 78, I consider myself somewhat of an expert at this especially as I have lived in Florida for over 35 years. I have tried over the counter and doctor recommended sun screens. Some are heavy, others extremely matte and drying, and others .....well they just do not work. When I found EltaMD I was so happy and continue to be so as it is light, not greasy, leaves my skin glowing and smooth....and protects it from the sun. At first I thought it would leave a white, pasty tone to my skin, however, it soon disappears and leaves my skin dewy. I recommend it and hope others like it and get as much benefit from it as I do.

I wasn't a fan...
I didn't care for this product. The texture and smell was not for me. I prefer their Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 untinted though. That sunscreen is one I use often.

Great sunscreen
This sunscreen provides great protection with chemical and physical active ingredients, while also containing antioxidant protection. It seems to cover a broader spectrum since it protects again HEV light and IR. It does all of that without an offensive odor and while having a light texture.

Works great
My husband works outside everyday on the farm and I bought this product for daily use on his face and neck. Previously he was using a grocery store brand and it left white streaks on his face and clogged his pores. This product goes on easier and his skin looks clearer from using it.

Love this sheer mineral-based facial sunscreen
Elta MD sheer mineral based sun protection products glide onto my face effortlessly, unlike thicker creams. I trust the protection this line of products provides as it is comes highly recommended by my dermatologist and skin care consultants in the practice. I highly recommend this product.

Fairly sheer
This product seems to protect well but it leaves an oily feeling residue on my skin. I prefer it for my arms rather than for my face.

Goes on easy
This formulation gives a thorough covering, but goes on like a lotion and absorbs quickly. I don't feel it on my skin. I think I can stay with this one.

Great sunscreen
I have sensitive skin and have had a couple of Basel cells removed on my face. Best facial sunscreen I have found- not drying and goes on smoothly.

The best sunscreen for melanin-rich skin!
Unlike other sunscreens, this one does not cause me to break out! Because of my combination skin, which is melanin-rich, I could never find a sunscreen that would not cause my face to breakout. In spite of the price being on the expensive side, you'll only need less than a dime size for your face, so it's worth it! Also, this sunscreen does not leave a white cast!

Great product!
I have been a fan of EltaMD sunscreen for many years but only recently tried the UV Sheer Broad Spectrum SPF 50. It is a great product. It is not greasy and goes on smoothly with none of the white residue. I put it on every day before applying my foundation.

Nice product
Texture is shear, there is absolutely zero smell (fragrance) and it’s not paste-y white, it’s not tacky it dries nicely and makeup applies nicely over it. I like to use it on my ears, neck, chest, tops of my shoulders and tops of my hands when I’m wearing SPF protective clothing.

Elta MD SPF 50
I have used EltaMD for more than a decade. It is the only sunscreen I have found that does not leave a trace of white on my face, neck, hands and arms. This is consistently a great product. The Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ is a bit thinner than the previous 45+ version and makes application even easier. I always feel protected when using this product.
