• Non-greasy, fast-absorbing lotion suitable under makeup
• Unscented and paraben-free to reduce irritation risk

Will this sunscreen work for acne-prone or sensitive skin?

Yes — the UV Clear formula is oil-free and non-comedogenic, so it won’t clog pores or contribute to breakouts. Its gentle ingredients make it suitable for skin prone to rosacea, acne, and sensitivity while providing reliable sun protection.

• Oil-free base reduces shine and pore congestion

• Fragrance-free to lower irritation potential

How does EltaMD UV Clear help with discoloration and uneven tone?

The formula contains niacinamide, a skin-friendly ingredient known for improving visible tone and reducing the appearance of discoloration over time. Regular daily sunscreen use also helps prevent new pigment formation caused by UV exposure.

• Niacinamide supports a more even complexion
• Daily SPF prevents sun-induced hyperpigmentation
• Can be layered under makeup or serums without pilling
• Transparent finish avoids masking your natural tone

How much product comes in this size and how is it best used?
