Made Rosacea redness worse
I have rosacea redness on my cheeks and had hoped the green tint of this sunscreen would help. Not only did it not help, but it made the redness on my cheeks much worse. I stopped using it after a couple of days and threw it out. I went back to La Roche Posay sunscreen.

Not for sensitive skin
This made my rosacea much worse and broke me out all over. I had to toss after trying it out 3 times. I miss the original UV Elements sunscreen. That was the best! Unfortunately this one was really bad for my skin. Also the green tint for me did not cover any redness whatsoever.

Found this to be a very unsatisfactory product
I have used EltaMD products for years with great success. LOVE THEM. So, I suggested my daughter try this product—she can have some redness and splotchy areas on her face—has a tendency to lean towards mild rosacea but nothing severe/dramatic and not all the time. I suggested this Elta product for her to try. Oh my, from the very first day she started to develop bumps/splotchy-ness/severe redness and rash/itchiness/and some swelling. Had her stop the product and after 3-4 days it went away. She also made an emergency appt with her Derm. Just goes to show not everyone can use a certain product. Is what it is, but Lordie, she suffered for a great many days. It also, she said, went on cakey/thick/heavy and didn’t feel very comfortable.

Tried it and not a fan
I have pink undertones on my face and decided to try this product. Unfortunately, it doesn't deliver the results it claims. The green tint doesn't neutralize the pink and the product forms clumps after you apply it on your face making it a challenge to apply makeup. I'm going to continue using a sunscreen from a different brand. Not only does it do a better job at minimizing the pink on my face, but it goes on smooth and doesn't form clumps.

Ashy hue
I did not find that it took any redness away, instead it left my face with kind of an ashy hue. Very unflattering. Won't repurchase.

I had a bad reaction
Faithful EltaMD facial sunscreen user, thought this would be good to tone down redness. I used it for 2 days and absolutely cannot tolerate it. My face is red, rough and very uncomfortable with stinging and burning. My husband also reacted but not as bad as I did. Beware if you have sensitive skin. I’m just going to throw it away.
