Great sunscreen
A little thinner than the other ELTA products, but I find that I like its texture better and I don’t have to use as much – important with such an expensive product. Spreads very easily and quickly. Not drying. The white disappears immediately and never cakes up in my wrinkles. Its nice to have a waterproof sunscreen that is still not drying on my face.

Amazing! Great for sensitive skin, doesn’t feel greasy, and works perfectly under makeup!
I’ve been avoiding sunlight for decades, but occasionally it’s inescapable. You’ll never find me willingly soaking up the rays, but I do have to walk out to my car in summer, drive somewhere on my lunch hour, etc. I’ve gotten used to my foundation makeup having some SPF, but when I recently changed formulas, I was surprised to find zero mention of sun protection on the bottle. So off I went in search of a unicorn — that is, a sunscreen that doesn’t irritate my skin, doesn’t affect the color or finish of my makeup, doesn’t feel greasy, and doesn’t smell like a day at the pool.I checked around the web for discussions about the best sunscreen to wear under makeup, and this EltaMD formula kept popping up. The price is definitely more than I would ever spend on something like this, but fortunately it’s eligible for FSA, so I was able to put it on that account. I was a little worried about pilling because while some reviewers said it didn’t pill at all, others said it pills badly. As for how it turned out for me…It’s perfect. My skin is easily irritated, but I’ve been wearing this sunscreen daily for 6 weeks now, and my skin is happy. It’s lightweight and feels like it moisturizes, so I use this instead of a moisturizer each morning, but it doesn’t feel oily or greasy at all. It does have a little bit of a white cast to it, but that fades quickly and doesn’t change the appearance of my foundation at all. And no, it doesn’t make my foundation pill! I’ve come to the conclusion that whether or not it pills probably depends on the foundation itself, as some formulas may mix differently with it. In any case, Maybelline Super Stay 24HR Skin Tint works well with this sunscreen, so it’s great for me.Overall, this has turned out to be a great buy. It’s not cheap, but a little goes a long way, and it agrees with both my skin and my makeup, so I’ll definitely be back for more!

Excellent; Almost Perfect Sunscreen
I highly recommend this sunscreen to anyone that can afford it and does not consider money an issue. It is an expensive sunscreen; however, during certain times of the year, such as Black Friday / Cyber Monday, you can find it discounted from its usual price.This product is marketed as a zinc oxide sheer sunscreen; however, it is a combination of a mineral and chemical sunscreen consisting of 15% Zinc Oxide and and 10% Octocrylene. In my opinion, this sunscreen does not need Octocrylene, as the percentage of Zinc Oxide it contains is already suitable and high enough for adequate protection against UVA-1, UVA-2 and UVB rays. Octocrylene is a chemical ingredient that protects only against UVB, which cause sunburn.This sunscreen goes on clear on the skin, leaving a minimal white cast, if any. It quickly absorbs into the skin. It leaves a minimal white cast on facial hair / a beard. It is very easy to apply to the skin without stretching it, including easy to apply to facial hair / a beard. My only recommendation when applying is to hold the tube upward, as some of the contents may leak out if the tube is facing downward.I recommend applying this product only to the face.

The best!!!
Even though it is zinc oxide based, it leaves no white cast and feels great and it works.

Close but doesn’t hit the mark
This sunscreen is probably really good for other people but for me there are several reasons why I wouldn’t reach for it for my daily sunscreen.I will start with the positives-Initially dewy but dries matte!!! A sunscreen that will not make you feel oily (elta sport was wayyyy to shiny for me). Very clean matte finish.-No fragrance-Easy to apply. Grips skin but feels lightweight. I feel very adequately protected from the sun.-High UVA protection with high zinc oxide-water resistant (definetly feels that way)-no eye stingThe cons-white cast :/ got my hopes high that it would be invisible or subtle as marketed but it is not. I am an olive toned person and the white cast was too strong for my liking. It initially goes on with a strong white cast that fades slightly after about 2-3 hours. Though there is a saying in the skincare community, any mineral sunscreen will always have a white cast.-Price but there is no surprise there. Elta Md positions themselves as the luxury drug store skin care brand.-The THD (vitamin c) irritates my skin upon application but fades.This is my second time trying to love an Elta Md sunscreen because I love love love hybrid sunscreen formulations. Currently my favorite American hybrid sunscreen is the jack black sun guard. That sunscreen has the most perfect finish, but I highly suspect it has the weakest UVA protection compared to any elta Md sunscreen.Overall I could see this being a holy grail for a pale, oily skin type person. Or anyone who doesn’t mind the cast. I could imagine makeup applying good over this, for example. In terms of finish, I cannot express how much I love the natural matte clean finish it feels.The white cast though is too much for me. I know it’s bad when I keep on looking at myself in the mirror to see if it faded enough. I felt awkward wearing this hanging out with friends.

Gentle effective sunscreen
There are a lot of great sunscreens out there but the problem is that I can’t use them. Elta is one of the few that is both effective and doesn’t cause me to get cracks around my lips and eyes. This layers well over moisturizer but under makeup. If I’m out all day I also tap it on top of my makeup. A little goes a long way.

Best sunscreen recommended by my dermatologist !
This sunscreen is very light weight, non greasy, and has invisible zinc. I have used it for many years on my face, neck and shoulders. Works well for sun protection without feeling greasy

Es muy pequeño y quería comprar otro producto más grande pero igual es bueno y se puede usar
From sunny Singapore –
I am brown toned and about a V on the pitzpatric scale and unfortunately this sheer UV leaves a definite white cast even after 10mins. I have dry skin and was hoping this light fluid would feel comfortable after my moisturiser but I found I had to reapply moisturiser on top again after a while as my skin felt a little tight. Unfortunately I won’t be using this during the day and will try to use it up during outdoor sports when I know it will be washed off soon after.

Textura suave y ligera, se desvanece al poco tiempo de aplicarlo. Pero el envase no cierra adecuadamente y se acumula producto en la tapa 🙁

La verdad la textura no me encantó, tampoco me saca brillo pero lo que si odié es yo normalmente uso otro protector con color para el diario, compre este para usar debajo del maquillaje en ocasiones especiales y te deja la cara blanca, nunca desaparece ese color blanco que creo que todos odiamos en los protectores y más del rostro, no volvería a comprarlo
