Review: Lightweight tinted sunscreen that works well under makeup, but finish depends on skin type - I’ve been using this sunscreen daily as part of my morning skincare routine, mainly under makeup or on no-makeup days for light coverage. The texture is very lightweight and spreads easily without feeling heavy or greasy. It absorbs fairly quickly and doesn’t leave a sticky residue, which is a big plus for daily wear. The tint helps even out mild redness and gives a subtle “my skin but better” look rather than full coverage. It layers well with moisturizer and foundation, and I didn’t experience any pilling when applying makeup over it. That said, the finish can vary depending on skin type. On oilier skin, it can start to look a bit shiny throughout the day, while drier skin types may want to moisturize well beforehand to avoid any uneven blending. It also has a very sheer tint, so it won’t replace foundation if you’re looking for coverage—more of a tone-evening sunscreen than a makeup product. Overall, this is a solid everyday sunscreen option if you want something lightweight, non-greasy, and compatible with makeup, especially for sensitive or acne-prone skin. Review: Lightweight sunscreen that looks very natural - I recently started using EltaMD UV Clear Tinted Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 and I really like it. The texture is lightweight and blends into the skin very easily. I also love the light tint because it helps my skin look more even without feeling like makeup. It doesn’t leave a white cast and it feels comfortable for daily use. Pros: • Lightweight • Natural looking tint • Easy to apply Cons: • The bottle could be a little bigger Overall, this is a great sunscreen for everyday use and I would recommend it. ## Features - TINTED SUNSCREEN FOR FACE: This tinted face sunscreen with transparent Zinc Oxide provides broad spectrum SPF 46 protection and helps protect normal and sensitive skin types from UVA and UVB damage without leaving behind residue - FOR NORMAL, ACNE-PRONE, AND SENSITIVE SKIN TYPES: UV Clear uses an oil-free, non-comedogenic formula that’s designed for daily use on normal, oily, rosacea, and acne-prone skin so you get effective daily sun protection without feeling greasy - SUITABLE FOR HYPERPIGMENTED SKIN: Contains Niacinamide which helps to visibly improve skin tone and reduce the appearance of discoloration and blemishes on the skin - CONVENIENT TRAVEL SIZE SUNSCREEN: This tinted sunscreen is TSA approved and comes in a convenient travel-size pump bottle that easily fits in handbags, beach bags, and carry on luggage so you can protect your skin at home, work, or on the go - SUITABLE FOR ALL SKIN TYPES: UV Clear comes in both tinted and untinted versions that support a wide range of skin types and complexions; it’s a dermatologist recommended sunscreen that’s fragrance-free, paraben-free, sensitivity-free, and non-comedogenic ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00ZPWR0N8 | | Active Ingredients | Octinoxate, Zinc Oxide, lactic_acid | | Additional Features | dermatology tinted moisturizer spf 46, sunscreen tinted, bloqueador solar facial con color, protector solar para la cara, protector solar con color, tinted moisturizer, dermatology tinted moisturizer, md sunscreen, protector solar, tinted spf, dermatology, sun skin care, sun care, protetor solar facial, bloqueador solar facial, zinc oxide sunscreen | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #17 in Beauty & Personal Care ( See Top 100 in Beauty & Personal Care ) #1 in Facial Sunscreens | | Brand Name | EltaMD | | Color | 03 - Tinted (1.7 oz) | | Country as Labeled | United States | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 20,944 Reviews | | Item Dimensions | 1.5 x 1.5 x 4.5 inches | | Item Form | Cream | | Item Volume | 50 Milliliters | | Item Weight | 1.58 Ounces | | Manufacturer | EltaMD | | Manufacturer Part Number | 2520/EMD | | Material Type Free | Fragrance Free, Oil Free, Paraben Free | | Model Number | 02520 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Benefits | Helps protect normal, sensitive and acne prone skin from UVA/UVB rays without leaving behind residue.

And it makes my face extremely try after only one use. I will be returning it. **Q: No ingredients? please anyone let us know what the ingredients are, please, oh please, please : )** A: Hello! I hope this answers your question.. Active ingredients: Zinc Oxide 9.0%, Octinoxate 7.5%.Inactive ingredients: Purified Water, Oleth-3 Phosphate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Polyisobutene, PEG-7 Trimethylolpropane Coconut Ether, Phenoxyethanol, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Butylene Glycol, Lactic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Niacinamide, Cyclopentasiloxane, Octyldodecyl Neopentanoate, Triethoxycaprlylsilane. **Q: What about sunscreen for the body, not just facial?** A: I'm sure you COULD use this for the body, however, it's a small container (1.7 ounces) and you would probably use the entire contents in two to three uses. It would probably be smarter to purchase a larger (and less expensive) container of sunscreen for the body and if you're seeking a tan, also purchase a body tanning product; which is essentially a tinted lotion. There are several to choose from (tanning products) in your local drug store so you might want to read the reviews before you purchase. And there are also several sunscreen products in your local drug store if you don't see one that suits your desires on Amazon. Hope this helps! ps. I LOVE this tinted facial sunscreen...you won't be disappointed! **Q: does it stain light colored clothes** A: I just got some on my eggshell sweater. I'll see if it comes off but you can definitely see it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lightweight tinted sunscreen that works well under makeup, but finish depends on skin type *by S***N on April 11, 2026* I’ve been using this sunscreen daily as part of my morning skincare routine, mainly under makeup or on no-makeup days for light coverage.

About a year ago, I noticed some discoloration on my upper cheeks. I asked my dermatologist what I could do about it. He said that it was melasma from sun damage. He sold me a cream that contained hydroquinone and recommended EltaMD Tinted 46. So, I bought some. EltaMD seemed very expensive at the time. So, I bought a big bottle of another brand with a pump on it and used it every morning like lotion. Quick and easy. But, I could feel that I was absorbing what I learned were chemicals (I didn’t know the difference in physical and chemical sunscreen at the time). So, then I got into a rather obsessive series of chats with ChatGPT about chemical sunscreen (for months). Most chemical sunscreens in the U.S. use the same four ingredients. These ingredients do absorb into the skin and some impact hormones. So, I bought Zinc Oxide /Titanium Dioxide sunscreens. But, they literally turn your face blue. OK for the beach. But, you can’t wear it to work. People think you are low on oxygen and are dying. Definitely not worth the distracting conversations—especially if you’ve lost a bunch of weight taking a GLP-1. As I said, I became obsessed with this subject and know all of the chemicals used in the U.S and Europe along with associated target wavelengths (I didn’t look too much into Asian sunscreens). But, I’ll say that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is really in the way with chemical sunscreens. The approval process is so expensive, the sunscreen companies don’t go through the approval process in the U.S. But, the Europeans have a lot of options. And they are very good options. Particle size, and some other characteristics, ensure that they don’t absorb into the skin, are reef safe, and don’t degrade quickly in sunlight. So, you don’t have to apply them every two hours if you are in an office and not sweating (because that’s the other thing—I’m not getting caught in the restroom mirror, or with a compact mirror, applying sunscreen at work). So, I ordered a lot of different European sunscreens to be shipped directly from Europe. Why so many? I learned that blue light is what causes melasma. And there are a couple of ingredients (Mexoryl 400 and TriAsorB) that stop blue light along with UVA and UVB. But they made my face shiny (like, your face looks like it is slathered in olive oil). I bought matte versions that were still shiny. Or they had perfume in them—very floral feminine scents (God knows I don’t want to show up at work smelling like a girl—or a Romeo fresh from a romp either). Some of the bottles were comically small (fits in the front pocket of your slacks without bulging) for exhorbatant prices that were exacerbated by high shipping costs. But, mostly, they are oily. So, I bought a great U.S. zinc oxide one that is very mattifying. Worked perfect… almost. The problem was that two layers of sunscreen (I didn’t want to give up the blue light protection) with a mattifier absorbing so much oil made it look like I was wearing foundation—and turned my face blue. I tried a lower zinc oxide spf concentration. Still blue. Then I got tinted versions (the first one was too dark and made me look like I was drunk). And, that much sunscreen makes you feel like you are wearing a mask and you can’t wait to wash it off at the end of the day. After washing, my face would be dry (don’t use Castile soap on your face). So, I bought moisturizers (several because ChatGPT gave me a whole regimen on a Word doc so I could tape it to my mirror). Some made my face oily. Some made my face sting (even the simple volcano water and hyaluronic acid stung). For the love of God! So, ChatGPT tells me that my barrier is compromised. So, I buy a bunch of mild cleansers. Cream to foam is not strong enough to remove caked on sunscreen. Squalene oil emulsifier works great. But, this was all too much. So, this morning I saw, among a bathroom sink full of so many products it puts my wife’s side of the sink to shame (she’s very unhappy with this obsession by the way. She says I look like a girl putting on make up (rubycell sponges are the best in case you are looking for that kind of thing))…. Well, to make a long story short, I saw an old bottle of EltaMD 46. Very smooth application (I think that it is the Octinoxate that creates the perfect viscosity). It feels like I have nothing on my face. That’s a great feeling. No white cast or blue face. The tint does not seem to wear off as easily on things like a white collar or the inside of a hat (probably because it spreads so well you don’t have to use a lot. I’ve purchased a dozen hats to protect me from the sun too. But that’s a whole n’other story). The bottom line is that my dermatologist was right. And, I could have financed a few years worth of EltaMD 46 purchases if I hadn’t gone down the European rabbit hole. Do not buy the EltaMD 50! It does not spread well. One more thing. The iron oxide used in the tint blocks blue light that causes melasma! Who would have guessed. I didn’t notice that message the first time I was reading the bottle label. Just buy the EltaMD 46. Trust me. It’s the best in every way. ## Frequently Bought Together - EltaMD UV Clear Tinted Face Sunscreen, SPF 46 Oil- Free Tinted Sunscreen with Zinc Oxide, Dermatologist Recommended Sunscreen, 1.7 oz Pump - EltaMD AM Restore Face Moisturizer for Women and Men, Light Moisturizer Face Cream, Made with Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid, 1.7 oz Pump - EltaMD PM Restore Face Moisturizer, Night Moisturizer for Face, Restores Skin Elasticity and Vitality Overnight, Safe For All Skin Types --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/16245557-uv-clear-tinted-sunscreen-for-face-spf-46-with-zinc](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/16245557-uv-clear-tinted-sunscreen-for-face-spf-46-with-zinc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
