EltaMD UV Lotion Body Sunscreen SPF 30 Sunscreen Body Lotion with SPF Made with Zinc Oxide and Hyaluronic

I gave this sunscreen a real workout for its first use: a week of hiking in full, 80+ degree sunshine at high altitudes in and around Salt Lake City. We were out in full sun for 8+ hours per day while being very active. I'd apply EltaMD before we left the house and re-apply mid-day. I am pretty pale because I live in Seattle where we get a lot of gray days and a limited sunny season, so I was really pushing it. EltaMD worked perfectly. It is easy to apply and not super greasy. It blends into your skin really well so no one can tell you're wearing any kind of lotion or tinted sunscreen. The fragrance is almost non-existent so you don't smell like you're wearing sunscreen. And it was super effective: ZERO sunburn - not even some mild red or pink tones after all that sunshine. EltaMD worked exactly as I hoped. It's also very moisturizing, which was important because SLC is a very dry climate. And I didn't have any skin reactions to the sunscreen - no breaking out or anything like that. Read more

I’ve used this product for a long time. This is lightweight and goes on smoothly. It is white but completely clear upon application. You will not see it, feel it or smell it after you put it on. I live in Florida and use it daily. I’ve used it on my face too, and it is not greasy at all. We all know we need to be using a daily sunscreen. Do yourself future self a favor and get this, as it is quick and easy to apply which will make it easy to get in that habit of applying it to your arms, neck and hands every day. One bottle lasts a long time. You just put it on your bathroom counter and depress the top down, because it has a push down top. No caps to unscrew, no squeezing, no spraying, just press down. No drips either. It comes with a translucent cap which stays on very well if you pack it in a bag. I keep the cap on, just to keep it together, and it is very easy to remove. My mother has arthritis in her hands and she can easily remove the cap, because you can push it off. I did not buy this to be an “all in one” product, as my dermatologist had suggested using a sunscreen as a sunscreen and a moisturizer as a moisturizer- however, it does have a moisturizer and it does moisturize my skin, yet does not feel greasy at all. You won’t even know you are wearing it. This brand Elta Md was initially recommended to me by a cosmetic surgeon’s office after I had a procedure done. My teenage son will use it and he normally does not like lotions or any sunscreen that he can feel after he puts it on. Read more

I have been using this as a face sunscreen for 5 years. I have sensitive skin and need a protective barrier due to using vitamin A on my face every night. This moisturizes and wears under my make up well. I feel protected throughout the day and if I am going to be out in the sun I reapply to make sure it is still protecting. My dermatologist recommended this and I always pick it after trying other sunscreens. Read more

Love the product. Timely delivery Read more

This sunscreen is such a great deal — big bottle and affordable! I use it on my face, neck, arms, and legs. It feels super lightweight and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. No white cast either. Definitely a new daily essential! Read more

The media could not be loaded. I recently tried the EltaMD UV Lotion Body Sunscreen, and overall, I'm quite pleased with its performance. First off, let's talk about the positives. The sunscreen has a nice subtle fragrance, which is a pleasant change from some other sunscreens that can be overpowering. The SPF 30+ protection is also reassuring, providing a decent level of sun protection. One of the standout features of this sunscreen is the zinc oxide. I really appreciate the inclusion of zinc oxide for its broad-spectrum coverage, especially against harmful UVA and UVB rays. It's a fantastic ingredient for sun protection. However, one thing to note is that the zinc oxide does leave a bit of a white cast initially. You really have to take the time to rub it in thoroughly to get it to blend into the skin. While this extra step can be a bit of a hassle, I do appreciate the added protection that zinc oxide offers. In conclusion, the EltaMD UV Lotion Body Sunscreen is a solid choice, especially if you're looking for a sunscreen with zinc oxide for excellent sun protection. The subtle fragrance is a nice touch, and while it does take some effort to blend in the zinc oxide, the benefits make it worthwhile. It's a reliable option for daily use to keep your skin protected from the sun. Read more

I have used EltaMD sunscreen since I had a dermatologist procedure. It is a 'vanishing' sunscreen that isn't visible on skin if you massage it into the areas you apply it to. I haven't had a sun burn since I've been using. It is odorless, non irritating, and easy to apply. If you sweat or swim while using it you should reapply ever 90 minutes. In my experience it doesn't irritate my eyes if some sweat gets in then. I have noticed no skin irritation (I have very sensitive skin). Another factor is it doesn't take much to get good sun blocking so despite initial cost it is a good value. Read more

Feels really nice on the skin. It’s the only sunscreen that I can tolerate on my hands, without wanting to wash it off immediately. I do wish it came in a smaller size. I like to reapply after I wash my hands during the day, so a purse sized option would be great. Read more
