EltaMD UV Skin Recovery Face Sunscreen with Zinc Oxide All Mineral Safe for Sensitive Skin SPF 50

At 37 years old, it has become apparent how important a good skincare routine is. It used to be so easy to put any foundation or bb cream, on and just go, let’s just say we cannot do that anymore! I have very dry fair, cool toned skin with redness. So covering that while still hydrating my skin is extremely hard, even with bb and cc creams or tinted moisturizers. I have found the majority of them lean more warm toned and even the lightest, which makes me look orange. From cakey to orange, it’s just not a great situation. Whole I have dry skin, it really isn’t bad but I want to even out my skin tone because of redness and dry skin. I was definitely influenced by TikTok with this product, but let me tell you that it does exactly what it says it does. It instantly removes the majority of the redness in my face, while keeping it protected from the sun and evens out my skin tone. I feel like it is also working to resolve the overall issue of redness too. It is expensive, but from what I seen, it lives up to the hype. I haven’t tried it under a cc cream or foundation, but using it with some blush, concealer, and bronzer, definitely works! I also like that I can use my HSA for it too! Read more

Love love love this stuff. Perfect weight, just enough green to counteract redness without leaving you looking like Frankenstein’s creature. It works wonderfully alone or under my BB cream or my heavier foundations depending on what my coverage needs are, but if I’m having a no makeup day, it’s just enough to even me out. I was hesitant because of the price but needed to use up some FSA dollars and was pleasantly surprised! Will be a repeat purchase for me for sure! Read more

This is now my holy grail sunscreen. It has a slight tint (I have medium olive skin tone) but it blends in very nicely and easily. I use the 2 finger lengths on my face and neck and it still blends very nicely. I have combo skin that’s more on the dry side right now and this works perfectly as a moisturizer and sunscreen. I highly recommend it. Read more

Very lightweight and worked perfect to protect my skin after a microneedling treatment. Doesn't really help with redness as much as I'd hoped for but it is great for after any treatments. Read more

This sunscreen is gentle, lightweight, and perfect for sensitive skin. It blends in better than most mineral sunscreens I’ve tried (no heavy white cast) and it also feels soothing on the skin. The zinc oxide provides strong protection, and it doesn’t clog pores or cause irritation. Read more

Love this stuff. Great for reducing the redness with rosacea. Non irritating. Have bought at least five times. Read more

I wanted to love this sunscreen. It’s lightweight. Blends in well. Doesn’t make my skin look dewy/greasy (i hate a dewy finish!). I also didn’t notice a white cast, even after second application — I’m medium-skinned, Hispanic, neutral undertones. First application was mostly okay. My eyes felt a little sensitive, but I wasn’t sure if it was my contacts. About 15-20 minutes after second application, my eyes began to feel even more irritated. If your eyes can tolerate it, this is probably as good as it gets in terms of mineral sunscreens. However, my sensitive eyes cannot handle it. Read more

First off I’d like to say I have only done a couple of reviews on amazon over the last 10 years, that might even be a generous number. I felt compelled to share my experience after using this product for only a couple of days. I was recently diagnosed with rosacea however another doctor said it may be a broken skin barrier instead. Nonetheless I experience a lot of redness and have fair oily skin. I wouldn’t say my skin has always been great but not terrible. I try to take care of it and experience redness patches quite often. Being in sales I always want to try and put on my best face. I’m a 45 yr old male. I wasn’t sure about the product as I didn’t want to wear a “makeup” but this is not really one. It has really toned down my redness and I can say for the first time in probably 20 years my skin feels great with this on it. Leaves it much less oily and a smooth soft texture. I wish I had found this so long ago. I told my fiance about it as she has had issues with some redness. I found out she uses a tatch product that does something similar. She tried mine and absolutely loves it too. It might cost a bit more than some people would like to pay but can you really put a price on something that works so well? I’d happily cut out some other vices to continue using this and leave me feeling confident. I also have very sensitive skin and have experienced zero side effects. I hope someone reads this and pulls the trigger on the purchase so they can be as happy as I am! Read more
