EltaMD UV Restore Face Sunscreen SPF 40 Mineral Sunscreen for Sun Damaged Skin Repair Anti-Aging Zinc Oxide Sunscreen

The best sunscreen I’ve found that isn’t chemical. It’s mineral, but it doesn’t leave a nasty white cast. I even use it on my body as well. I wish they would make it in a larger size for that reason lol I love the packaging the pump is really nice. It moisturizes the skin, but never causes acne at all. It’s comfortable and it wears for a while. Protects great! Evens the skin tone out. I’ve had people compliment me on how even my skin looks this stuff is great. Read more

I have mature, very sensitive skin, fair color. They say the best sunscreen is the one you'll wear I am wearing this one and enjoying it! Absolutely no redness or any sensitivity issue Feels cool, smoothe, like not wearing anything, not sticky either. Looks alot better than without a tint, has light coverage and light smoothing effect . Wish it had a little more coverage and smoothing. Tint color not perfect match but a B or B+. I think it may be improving my lines & skin texture!! Maybe the squalane? Soothing, silky not oily at all. Will likely repurchase, I trust it. Thank you for such a fine product!! Read more

Love how smooth this sunscreen it and it has a nice tint as well Read more

I’ve used this product till I could squeeze out the very last drop, I even managed to pry open the lid to make sure everything was fully out (as you can see), so I feel like I can give a pretty thorough review! Let me start by saying I have oily acne-prone skin, that’s pretty sensitive, and I’m currently on tretinoin so my skin tends to peel. Pros: +Very dewy. +Not drying unlike other mineral sunscreens. +Light coverage that evens out redness. +Wonderful sun protection; I wore this to the beach on my vacation to La Paz (I was out there for hours in the blazing sun) and I didn’t burn! +The pump dispenses the perfect amount of product each time so I never feel like I’m applying too much/ too little. +Didn't break me out! Cons: +Felt hot/stung a bit around my mouth. This is an issue that I thought would go away after a few applications thinking my skin just had to get used to it, but it never did. The feeling would last for about 10 minutes after application and ONLY around my mouth/chin area. It never caused any further problems or irritation but I did find it really odd. I’m thinking maybe I just got a bad batch because I’ve used this product in the past years ago and I don’t remember it feeling hot and tingly. I absolutely LOVE this sunscreen, but I’m afraid to buy another one just in case it feels the same way this one did, especially since the price is pretty steep. That being said, I’m sad to say that I don’t think I’ll be repurchasing, but if your skin isn’t as sensitive as mine I would 100% to give it a shot! Read more

Tint: I'm in fair to medium skin tone range and the tint matches my skin very well. It has a natural finish but it is on the shiny side for me. I have normal skin and my face perspires a fair amount so it may not be shiny on drier skin. I use a solid cream foundation in a compact (which includes a physical sunscreen) to touch up through the day if it's not practical to just add on more of the Restore product or if I need to tone down the shine. I do see some improvement in my brown and red spots since I started using Restore a couple of months ago. I use a prescription hydroquinone product so that helps with the brown spots but it seems to cause/aggravate red spots. The Restore does seem to even out my complexion somewhat and does not dry my skin. I also use the ELTA 41 tinted. It is a lighter tint than Restore and provides more coverage for me, at least. The 41 lasts longer without touching up. No shine, but it's not really matte, either. I switch them out depending on what I'm doing that day. I only use physical sunblock on my face, which can be drying and irritating. Cycling in the Restore some days is keeping my skin "happier". I don't perceive any scent from Restore. I have somewhat sensitive skin and very sensitive eyes but I have no problems using Restore. I love ELTA products. Read more

I love this sunscreen. Use it as a daily moisturizer and it has a nice sheer tint to it. Makes my skin glow just a bit and evens out my skin a bit. Definitely not a foundation, but a nice easy glow. Good moisturizer and makes my skin soft. It is a bit pricey but worth the money. Read more

Great quality - will rebuy Read more

I love this sunscreen. Lazy days make it great too as its tinted!! Doesn't make my face feel heavy like other sunscreens, even while wearing makeup! Read more
