- Is EltaMD UV Clear good for acne-prone skin?
- Yes. It is oil-free, non-comedogenic and fragrance-free, and many acne-prone users report no new breakouts. Niacinamide in the formula is a plus for blemish-prone skin.
- Does it leave a white cast?
- It can. The zinc oxide base shows a white cast on medium and deep skin tones. Lighter skin tones usually notice less.
- Is it water resistant?
- No. It is a daily facial sunscreen, not a sport or beach formula. Reapply after swimming or heavy sweating.
- Can I wear it under makeup?
- Many users do, and it works as a makeup base for them. Some report pilling, so let it set and avoid heavy layering.
- What is in the formula?
- Zinc oxide for broad-spectrum SPF 46, plus niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. It is oil-free, fragrance-free and paraben-free.
- Is the 1.7 oz size enough for daily use?
- It is a standard facial sunscreen size. With daily full-face application it runs out in roughly a month or two, so many buyers keep a backup.
