"My next recommendation here is the CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30. This is more of a budget friendly also mineral that hydrates while protecting the skin. It provides that really sheer neutral coverage that evens out the redness. It's completely fragrance free suitable for sensitive skin and comes in three different shades so you can pick the right one for you. I'm a big fan of mineral sunscreen especially if you suffer from melasma, this is a good one to try."

"I'm going to use the CeraVe tinted face sunscreen SPF 30 for your daily moisturizer with sunscreen or just daily SPF in the morning. You need at least SPF 30. [...] It retails for about $16, extremely affordable. It provides broad spectrum UV protection against UVA and UVB, but being that it's tinted you also get that visible light protection."

"The Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 is a good tinted sunscreen. It's pure mineral and blends at least with my skin type. [...] One of the challenges with mineral sunscreens is that it will rub off on things, similar to makeup. The iron oxides will rub off on things, get on your clothes, etc. Now some are worse than others, and this is in the worst category of rubbing off on things."

"I've been using the original one off and on for years now and I love the tint but it can be a little on the orange side. CeraVe was one of the earliest available tinted mineral sunscreens that you could buy at the drugstore. [...] The original shade was always a little orangey, [...] but I do feel as though it does look a little less orangey now."

"I've tried out the newer light sheer tint and [...] it's not as orangey as the older formula. [...] When you blend it in you start getting more of the orange reds [...] because of the red iron oxides, which, you know, the iron oxides and tinted mineral sunscreens are a great addition because they help to protect against wavelengths of visible light that come from the sun that contribute to hyperpigmentation."

"That's the tinted one, 13.99, less expensive than the Neutrogena one, but you only get that one shade, and for some people it's too orange. Like the Neutrogena one, it is very hydrating and gives a nice healthy dewy glow, it's not super greasy or shiny."

"I get feedback from people that the CeraVe tinted sunscreen is on the orange side, and I would agree with that. It leans orangey, but it looks better than the Elastin Hydra Tint."

"I do like, for affordability, the CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen. That's why this one looks a little beat up, because I take this on my travels. This tint works really well for my skin tone. It's so affordable. If I forget it when I travel, I'll just go to the local Target and pick more up right there. It blends really well."

"I use this quite a bit. It's SPF 30 with a sheer tint and it has iron oxides in it to help with blocking that visible light spectrum. Putting a small amount on, it's pretty thick. It's kind of a nice way to cover up some blemishes as well, but it fits my skin tone very well. I know some patients complain about looking a little gray or orange with some tinted sunscreens, and this one works well. In terms of tinted sunscreen it can actually be quite trial and error, so this is a nice one."

"It's a great sunscreen for a couple reasons. Number one, it contains pure mineral filters, so it's suitable for all skin types, even if you have sensitive skin. Two, it's tinted. Even though it's one shade, I find it to be fairly flattering for most skin tones. Iron oxide is what gives that tint, and iron oxide also helps to block visible light that may contribute to potentially skin aging, but for sure hyperpigmentation that we often see as part of aging skin."

"I also think it's really hydrating and looks nice on the skin, obviously no white cast. I believe this only comes in one shade so you know if it doesn't happen to match your skin try one of the others and switch up the shade. This is really nice, it's hydrating. If you've used this one and find that it is drying for whatever reason for your skin then you can give this one a try. It is also affordable. This one is another really awesome product that I love."

"For beginners or people with sensitive skin or people with really dry skin, I recommend the CeraVe Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 30. This is a tinted mineral sunscreen. It's good for people with sensitive skin because the mineral sunscreens don't irritate your skin. You can use it right around your eyes and there's generally no irritation from mineral sunscreens. This one is also very hydrating."
