What it is and what it does
EltaMD UV Sheer Broad-Spectrum SPF50+ sunscreen provides excellent protection against UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays. It is water-resistant (80 minutes) and sweat-resistant. This sheer facial sunscreen, physical/chemical combo formula, with SPF 50+ is a lighter, fluid-like formula that allows for rapid rub-in application without any white cast. When applied, it goes through a water break, creating a sheen-like look at first. It then immediately absorbs into the skin, leaving a matte finish and helping to even skin tone. The sheer formula is hydrating yet not greasy and helps to calm heated/red skin. Antioxidant protection combats skin-aging free radicals associated with ultraviolet (UV), infrared radiation (IR) and offers high-energy visible (HEV) light protection. The formula is dye-free, fragrance-free, oil-free, paraben-free and alcohol-free.

Key ingredients

Hydrogenated face oil that is more stable than squalene found in sebum.

Attracts water, giving cells and skin volume. Plays a key role in cell signals and other vital processes. It cushions the skin, providing resilience and firmness. This moisturizing humectant temporarily plumps fine lines and wrinkles. HA makes skin feel dewy and look radiant and glowing. Great for oily skin because it feels lightweight and non-greasy on the skin. Safe for all skin types. HA helps other skincare products get into the skin. This antiaging and hydrating ingredient can radically alter how your skin routine works by affecting penetration and absorption of other ingredients- so make sure you use it in the correct step of your skin care routine.
