Reviews For EltaMD UV Shield Broad-Spectrum SPF 45 Oil-Free
Okay
Fairly okay SPF. Does not irritate skin but leaves white residue.

Best Sunscreen!!!
My dermatologist recommended this sunscreen, and I'm glad I purchased it. I have been using it for many years. I really love that it's oil free, light and it does not clog my pores. I will continue to use it.

love this!
I've been using this sunscreen for a few years and still love it. I use the EltaMD UV clear on my face and neck and use this for my chest/hands/arms etc. It does not leave a white mask on if you rub it in well. My skin is sensitive, and this brand does not bother at all. Love it!

Not greasy!
This sunscreen was recommended to me by my dermatologist. I also use Elta facial sunscreen and love it, so I thought I would give this a try. And I’m glad I did. It goes on smoothly, doesn’t feel greasy and doesn’t give my skin that ghostly glow!

Love this sunscreen!
Super smooth application, not pore-clogging, won't leave a white cast—a wonderful product overall! Rivals my go-to sunscreen. Although, it says "oily to normal skin," I have dry skin, and it doesn't seem to bother me. Love this and will be repurchasing/trying other sunscreen products from this company.

The Best
I've been using this for the past 7 or 8 years. It is the ONLY sunscreen I will put on my face. No breakouts, no irritation, no shine. I have very fair skin with mild rosacea, and this is the prefect product for me. I use it every morning, rain or shine, and the larger bottle lasts about 3 months. Fabulous product for a great price.

Fantastic, non-greasy SPF
Living near the ocean full-time, I use this all over my body first thing in the morning. It is moisturizing, lightweight, non-greasy and sinks in. It doesn't leave white marks on my clothing either! Friends & family have borrowed it when visiting us at the beach & all thought it was the best non-greasy SPF they've ever tried!

Great for body
This is a great sunscreen for your body and chest area. I had no breakouts or stinging when I applied. You must reapply after a few hours to avoid burning, but this is an overall great product.

Great sunscreen
I’d been using an OTC sunscreen from the grocery store for years, but my dermatologist told me I could throw it out because I needed to use something with zinc or titanium. After doing research, I decided on EltaMD and love it! My daughter started using it also.

Terribly drying!
I have oily skin. After a week of using this sunscreen, my skin is dry and flaky! It's really a shame because EltaMD sunscreens are spoken highly of, especially by dermatologists.

Like It
This is a good sunscreen for oily skin. Leaves a nice matte look with no white tint on the face. Also seems to keep my oiliness down throughout the day. However, I think it was the cause of a few pimples that popped up as I was using this. Once I stopped using it, pimples cleared up, but this could be from the prescription items I use on my face from my dermatologist. I am currently using a different sunscreen, but I am open with maybe trying this again in the future.

Great coverage and value
This works great under my foundation. I use KGD aqua foundation and love it, but if it layers on top of a greasy SPF, it breaks down badly. The EltaMD goes on nicely over my other skincare products, blends into my skin and doesn't cause my foundation or powder to separate or cake in weird places. It seems to protect against the sun well. I am an airline pilot and am exposed to much higher UV levels at altitude. My skin hasn't reacted negatively and application lasts. I have fair skin with some freckles and some sun damage. There is no white/ashy cast with this. I think this is good value for size and coverage. It doesn't leave residue on my clothes either.

Very good texture, sinks in easily
I got the larger airless pump, and it's certainly a hefty thing. For use on just your face, I probably would have gone with the smaller tube, but you really get a lot of product and you'll be set for months :) The texture is a nice light-to-medium texture and sinks in very easily. I would say it's cosmetically elegant.

Best sunscreen ever!
My dermatologist recommended this to me after removing a small skin cancer from my face four years ago. So I bought a tube to try and loved it from the very first day! It feels light on my skin, thoroughly blends into my face and does not leave it feeling greasy like so many sunscreens can. My makeup glides over it and on days when I don't wear makeup, you can't tell that I have anything on my skin. Best of all, my nose and cheeks do not turn pink from the sun. I have recommended it to other friends and family members, and everyone I have told about it has made the switch–happily. I now consider this EltaMD UV Shield Broad-Spectrum SPF 45 Oil-Free an essential part of my skin care.

Great spf
I love the Elat MD SPF 45. It protects my skin, doesn’t make me break out, and plays well under all my makeup.

Light SPF
This product feels weightless and leaves no shine. The only con is I don't love the bottle. It's long and big for travel purposes. Also the product leaves a slight white cast. I'm pale so it isn't overt but is still there. Its a good SPF overall. It protects and isn't greasy.

My favorite SPF lotion
I wear SPF daily usually instead of a regular moisturizer. I needed something lightweight, easy to spread, non-drying, non-shiny, and this one fulfills all my requirements perfectly. Love it.

I use this daily under my makeup and going out on boat. Have used it for years. Doesn’t clog my pores.
