Excelente produto. Não arde nada, mesmo na pele sensibilizada pós procedimento.

Me encanta, es la tercera vez que lo compro. Excelente calidad, se absorbe super bien, no deja sensación grasosa y no me saca acné. El tono es un poco claro recién aplicado, pero después de unos minutos solo percibes un color parejito y bonito. Es un poco más caro que otros pero también trae mayor cantidad así que en proporción cuesta casi lo mismo que los demás.
He probado otros y regreso a éste. No lo cambiaré.

Folks, my skin (and eyes) hate everything, and i mean everything. I feel like ive tried 30 different sunscreens.. many of which i liked but my skin decided it did not; or my skin was happy but my eyes wernt; or everything was happy but the tint stunk and made me look like an oompa loompa. (Im nc15-20 for reference). I was going to give up the fight and just let the sun shine down on me, bare faced.
I have rosacea and am super dry.. mineral sunscreens dont help the dryness but chemical ones leave me with a small bumpy rash on the places i have rosacea as well as burning on my cheekbones.
The tone of this is a light orangy pinky.. more cool toned than i like but it doesnt show up because its not very pigmented, which i enjoy. This doesnt have a white cast on me (but i am paleish).
I can put this around my eyes with no stinging. (This in itself deserves an award. WATER annoys my eyes. Water. I mean, this is what im dealing with)
My particular foundations go overtop of it okay (revlon colorstay normal dry and abh illuminating).
That being said, i do find this a bit thickish.. heavy sort of, but not bad.. its just not as light as say skinceuticals physical fusion, or la roche posay anthelios fluid. Its a gel/cream consistancy and it spreads pretty easily.
I didnt find this drying either, nor did it get dryer and dryer throughout the day (looking at you, eltamd elements… and also twenty zillion other ones). It leaves my parched skin looking moisturized with a slight sheen but definitely not dewy by any means.
Overall this isnt my holy grail, mostly due to the weight of it on my skin, but its one of the best ive come across, and even if i do find better, i will continue to use this around my eyes.
(Also theres 3oz of product in this tube which is pretty impressive.)

I like this – it's simple and fast absorbing. The tint blends into the skin, noting that I have fair yellowish skin that typically falls within the first 1 or 2 foundation colours in any range. For drier skin types like mine, this requires prior moisturisation, but that's to be expected. It does offer some blurring, which may make non-foundation types happy, but it doesn't offer a foundation finish – not even a very light foundation finish – with redness and pigmentation still noticeable. I use a very light application of either Chantecaille or Charlotte Tilbury's Light Wonder foundations and this is fine underneath. Most importantly, it does not sting eyes.

I have been using the Elta MD UV Physical sunscreen for years, usually purchased through my esthetician. This is the first time I have purchased it through Amazon and it is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. I have attached some photos of the previous one I was using and the new one side by side, in different lighting. The old one is on the right and the new one is on the left. You can see they are completely different in both colour and texture. The old one is lighter and has an airy, whipped, mousse like texture; whereas the new one is darker and has a thicker, more oily texture. I have purchased this product many many many many times and it has never looked like this, but the tube it comes in is identical, EXCEPT you can see that the red colour on the tube is slightly different. I don't trust this at all and want to return it.

This sunscreen has become my go-to choice for reliable sun protection. Here's why it stands out:
First and foremost, it's impressively gentle on the skin. I have sensitive skin, and this sunscreen has never caused any issues or irritation. It's a relief to find a product that I can trust without worrying about skin sensitivities.
What's more, it doesn't sting my eyes! I can apply it around my eye area without any discomfort or tears. It's a game-changer for those of us who want to protect our delicate eye area without any hassle.
The cream gel consistency feels thick and cooling upon application, providing a refreshing sensation. It's a pleasure to apply and makes me feel pampered.
Now, let's talk about the white cast. Yes, it does leave a slight white cast, but fear not! I've found a simple solution. I either mix in a drop of foundation to match my skin tone or wear it under my makeup. This way, I can enjoy the benefits of the sunscreen without any noticeable white cast.
Overall, this sunscreen is a fantastic option for anyone with sensitive skin. It's gentle, doesn't sting the eyes, and offers reliable sun protection. While it may leave a white cast, the versatility of using it with foundation or makeup makes it a winner in my book. If you're looking for a sunscreen that checks all the boxes for sensitive skin, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed.

I bought this because I am going through laser and microneedling procedure and sun screen is very important part of it. I think it's great because it didn't sting like other sunscreen that I used to use which didn't hurt at all before the first-time procedure. I think it's also great for sensitive skin.
I recommend start with small amount though, and add if you need more, because it does have white cast, just like other reviews mentioned, but it will blend.
Also it gave me flakey patch, especially around my mouth which is driest part of my face. That's why I gave 3.5-4 stars.
The cream colour looks a bit darker than I thought but when I applied it on my face it had good coverage, gave me even tone.
Overall I think it's great sunscreen for post-procedure skin, and sensitive skin.

The light tint in this sunscreen wears like makeup and evens out my skin tone (I have fair Asian skin). It leaves a beautiful matte finish and stays matte through the day, which is amazing for the summer as I dislike having a shiny face. No irritation, no breakouts, and it doesn't feel heavy or sticky on my skin. I hope they never stop making this.

Elta MD never disappoints! Pricier in Singapore. Would add to cart whenever there is a price drop!

EltaMD UV Physical Tinted Mineral Sunscreen is fantastic! It provides excellent broad-spectrum SPF 41 protection while offering a natural, light tint that blends well with my skin. The formula is chemical-free and gentle, making it great for sensitive skin. It doesn’t leave a white cast and feels lightweight. Highly recommend for daily sun protection with a subtle tint!

This sunscreen leaves no white cast and is a great shade for me. I wanted a physical SPF that didn’t make me look super orange nor leave me looking white and blotchy. This one fits the bill, I’ve repurchased multiple times and will continue to do so!

Love this product. Very moisturizing, spf is critical for good skin care and the tint just helps even out skin tones

I really like this tinted sunscreen that can be used daily, with or without foundation. I find that applying a small amount to the back of my hand and applying it to my face with a makeup sponge applicator, allows for a smoother looking coverage and it helps applying product to high exposure areas like tip of the nose. This has become a regular daily product for me. Hope this helps!
