What the gurus are saying

This sheer sunscreen earns praise for blending seamlessly and leaving skin feeling dewy rather than heavy, making it a solid pick for those wanting hydration alongside sun protection. Gurus note it's acne-safe despite containing octocrylene, and that the formula hydrates well, though the UV Clear formula from the same brand may edge it out specifically for acne-prone skin. The lightweight feel and clean blending are what keep people coming back.

"I like this one a lot it's just so lightweight makes my skin feel nice and dewy"

"This is the UV Sheer, not the UV Clear. The UV Clear is probably the best sunscreen from EltaMD for acne, but if you are looking for a sheer option that is acne-prone skin safe, this is it. This does have octocrylene, but this also has squalene and sodium hyaluronate, and this is a wonderful formula if you need something that does hydrate as well as protect. This is acne-prone skin safe. EltaMD is super professional. This is a wonderful formula and it blends in beautifully. EltaMD is one of those lines that all of the dermatologists sell and use because it works really really well. Yes, their non-medical products are cruelty-free and beautiful on the skin. This is brilliant. I love that it's on sale."
