UV Pure Sunscreen Broad-Spectrum SPF 47, Water-Resistant, Oil-free, 4.0 oz

I stopped using it for a while and switched to other formulas because I convinced myself that SPF 47 wasn’t high enough. Unfortunately, every other sunscreen I tried either broke me out or worsened my closed comedones. One of the reasons I originally stopped using this sunscreen was because it felt a bit drying. However, after adding more hydrating products to my skincare routine, I realized how effective this formula really is. It’s easy to reapply throughout the day, and unlike many sunscreens, additional layers don’t seem to clog my pores or trigger breakouts. Yes, it can feel drying and leaves a noticeable white cast at first, but in my experience the white cast fades significantly within about 20 minutes. It’s also a great value when compared to many sunscreens marketed specifically for the face. I’m extremely acne-prone and use this on my face without any issues. In fact, it’s the only sunscreen I’ve found so far that doesn’t aggravate my acne. While the initial price may seem high, you’re getting 4 ounces for around $30, which is much more product than many of EltaMD’s face-specific sunscreens. Honestly, I think it performs just as well on the face as some of their more advanced and specialized facial formulas. If you’re acne-prone and struggling to find a sunscreen that doesn’t cause breakouts, this one is definitely worth considering.

I've tried many physical sunscreens for oily skin (without alcohol) and I'll always come back to this. The best part is probably the transparent zinc, which makes the white cast hardly noticeable (I'm a fair-skinned East Asian) when set. Texture wise, it's not gonna be that gummy silicone paste that sucks your skin dry a la SuperGoop or Innisfree.

He probado varias cremas de protección mineral sin color, desde un avene leche mineral, grasosa y con feo aroma, isdin pediatrico de textura fluida pero muy muy blanca, umbrella mineral para piel sensible, dificil de untar y quitar, por ultimo colorescience corporal protege muy bien pero para retirar tienes que tallar bastante, todas dejan esa capa blanca, Elta md pure no deja ese blanco que se queda o transfiere en todas partes como las otras. Se absorbe muy bien fácil de repartir, la capa blanca es minúscula, soy tono morena clara, en una tez blanca no se notaria nada, no reseca y tampoco es grasosa. Si me la coloco en la cara con un poquito de maquillaje se difumina lo poco blanco que queda y no arde nada en los ojos. La recomiendo hasta en pieles mixtas y grasas, para piel seca con otra crema hidratante antes de usar esta bastaría. Cuerpo y cara es genial. No la he usado en playa, así no se si la resistencia al agua sea duradera.

Yes, it is ghost white But it also saved my irratated skin, my skin can't bear any chemical sunscreen In addition, if you wait 20-30min, the ghost white willl disappear and if you use some brown loose powder it will look just like natural

Very nice texture as well compared to the Elements. Does leave a white cast but not ghostly white after rubbing in but then again it will depend on individual skin tones. For darker skin tones, not gonna work I'm afraid. For outdoor it works great and it doesn't break me out. Do double cleanse when removing it.
