Review: Best tinted sweat/water resistant sunscreen out there - Love it. Best tinted sweat resistant sunscreen out there and beleive me. I've tried many. It's difficult to find a brand without the harsh chemicals and even Elta MD has some options that include those chemicals but this one seems to be the lesser of evils. It has remained a staple in my skin protection regimen. I have Albinism, dry skin due to sebhorric dermatitis and in general very sensitive skin. I've tried many other brands includong Sunbum mineral tinted face, which was not the correct pigment and rubbed off very easily. This is the one I come back to again and again. I use it at the beach and when I go hiking in the mountains. It can cause increased dryness which is why I ventured elsewhere for a bit but ended coming back to it because nothing else compared to the sweat/water resistance, the ease of application, the pigment and honestly, the coverage- like others have stated, it does seem to cover blemishes very well. **Tip - I started applying a moisturizer before applying the sunscreen and then again at night after I've washed my face which seems to buffer the dryness. I wore this every day for 10 days hiking in Italy and my face didnt react until I finished the trek, which is impressive! You need to use a more hardcore moisturizer though, such as the Clinique 100H moisture surge! Also I want to point out that becauae I have Albinism and do not tan at all, I am living proof that this sunscreen works. I dont think people realize how often you actually need to apply sunscreen. It's not a one and done thing. Read the label, do your research and protect your skin!
Review: Great! - Great sunscreen! Doesn’t irritate my skin or eyes, and not too shiny or too dry looking. I’m quite pale and the rosy tint works well- from the name I thought it might be too pink/peachy but it’s not at all- just a pale more neutral tone.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a face moisturizer, too?**
A: EltaMD UV Physical offers a minimal amount of moisturization. It may be worn over any EltaMD moisturizer such as Barrier Renewal Complex or oil-free AM Therapy.

**Q: Whats the purpose of a tinted sunscreen?**
A: The original purpose of tinted sunscreens was to tint the white minerals to blend better with skin. The reason this doesn't come in multiple tints is that its not intended to replace a foundation but rather just make minerals easier to blend into skin--any skin. its lighter than many skin tones, but still darker than the white color of minerals. Having said that, with my moderately light white skintone, this does help blur imperfections and cover some redness, so I find I dont need foundation after using it.

**Q: Are their different tint colors?**
A: No. Just lightly tinted.

**Q: Will this stain clothing? I'd like to put it on my upper chest/neck.**
A: Yes, it does.  I try and wear dark colored clothing when I wear this sunscreen to keep it from showing.  Most of the times I can get the sunscreen stain out when I scrub the clothing with Fels Naptha or something like that.  That being said, I absolutely love this sunscreen as it is the only one I've found that doesn't cause my skin to break out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great!
*by S***H on April 6, 2026*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Been using for 10 years
*by I***T on December 15, 2025*

I’ve been using this for almost 10 years. I firmly stand behind this product. Definitely helps with melasma and anti aging. I’m 41 and people do not believe me. They think I am in my late 20s/early 30s and hands down, this sunscreen is a big part of why. Of course I also do the other basics—don’t smoke, stay hydrated, eat few processed foods, exercise regularly, intermittent fasting for autophagy, etc. There are other tinted zinc sunscreens that are cheaper but when you compare the ingredients in a detailed way, this one has a stronger amount of zinc and other anti-aging ingredients that the others don’t have. So yes, it’s more pricey but hands down, worth it. Even though it is tinted, it’s still a bit too light for my skin tone, so I add a tiny bit of liquid foundation with SPF that is a few shades too dark for me; when mixed together, it creates a custom color for me. This is what I use every day, rain or shine, without fail. This is what I use instead of makeup foundation, but I do occasionally use a blemish stick here and there and it looks just fine. It’s a very gentle formula.
