Best facial sunscreen for acne I’ve ever used!

As someone who generally hates sunscreen and would never wear any on my face out of fear of breakouts, the greasy feeling, the smell and because makeup would always slide off. Not with EltaMD! It’s light weight, non-greasy, doesn’t smell and helps to heal breakouts (IMO) while also providing UV protection. Hoping they can eventually do a tinted version like the original al. It’s holy grail for me now and I’ll never be without!

Magic in a bottle for oily skin

I’ve acne prone skin that is super oily. I’ve literally tried every sunscreen on the planet, none of them worked. They left greasy residue on my face, made it even oilier, and made my skin break out. Then I found Elta MD through an influencer (Jillian Gottlieb). Their blemish control product looked promising and I ordered one to give it a try. This is by far the best sunscreen I’ve ever tried. Very lightweight, doesn’t leave a cast and my skin has never looked better…no oil, not even on a hot summer day! This stuff is truly amazing. I highly recommend for those who are struggling with oily and acne prone skin. Yes, I recommend this product.

Great product for oily, acne rosacea skin

It's rare to find a sunscreen that is SPF 50 that is light and improves your skin. I was using the UV Clear sunscreen for well over a year and just switched to the UV Clear Blemish-Prone & Oil Balancing SPF 50 sunscreen because I do have very oily, acne rosacea skin. It is now my fave. It makes a wonderful base for makeup and can be worn under foundation all day, no breakouts. No, it does not peel my skin, or dry it out, or make it red. A very well formulated product.

Great for women over 50

I bought this because nothing else was working. I’m 50, and ever since hitting perimenopause I’ve become allergic to most everything (it’s so annoying)!! My face is constantly dry and many other sunscreens were making me breakout. I didn’t want to spend the extra money, but I’m here to tell you that I’m grateful that I did. You only have to use a little amount, and it should last me all summer!! This feels more like applying a hydrating lotion rather than a sunscreen, and no problems with putting on make up afterwards. No pilling whatsoever. I haven’t broken out into any rashes after a month of using it. I absolutely love it and will continue to purchase it!!

Goes on smooth and protects well

This sunscreen blends in smoothly and protects really well. I wore it when I was out in the mountains on a 90 degree day and did not burn. It is not overly thick or oily like some sunscreens. Not much of a scent either, which I like because you can’t tell I even have sunscreen on.
