Review: Elta Md Uv Clear Spf 46 Sunscreen
The Good
- On the face it’s really nice. It does take a bit of rubbing before the white cast disappears, but not nearly as much as other sunscreens I’ve used
- It seems really good for sensitive skin, at least as long as your skin doesn’t have a problem with any of the ingredients
- I haven’t had any issues with clogged pores with it either
- Regarding sun-protecting abilities, I’m very satisfied
- It’s not much more expensive than drugstore sunscreens, but far superior to anything else I’ve used
The Bad
- The consistency is more like moisturizer than primer; it’s thin, but not liquidy
- You do need to rub it in well however, or it will try to ball up when you put makeup on

Dermatologists Love The Eltamd Uv Clear
The Good
- Is a lightweight, oil-free formula, made with 9 percent zinc oxide, which protects skin from the sun’s UVA and UVB rays
- It’s a clear zinc-oxide sunscreen that also contains niacinamide to help give the skin a glow
- This silky white cream seeps into skin seamlessly, without creating more sensitivity (great for my redness-prone cheeks) and doesn’t have a scent, which means my underlying eczema is never triggered
The Bad
- If you slather it too close to the eyes, or it drips near the eyes, it could cause a slight stinging sensation
