Oil-free and sensitive skin approved
Today we are diving into the EltaMD universe. The originally Swiss brand revolutionized skincare in hospitals, burn centres and rehabilitation clinics. Since 2007 the #1 Dermatologist-recommended brand has been growing its collection of sun-protective products. I have selected one of their best-sellers, EltaMD UV Clear SPF46 Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen.

This lightweight and silky cream was explicitly created for ACNE-PRONE, HYPERPIGMENTATION, and ROSACEA-prone skin types. With an oil-free formula that helps to calm and protect sensitive skin, you can wear it alone or under makeup.
What's Inside?
The EltaMD formula is rich in active ingredients such as:
- Niacinamide (vitamin B3): Reduces redness and repairs damaged skin.
- Hyaluronic acid: Captures moisture for deeper hydration.
- Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E): A powerful antioxidant that prevents signs of ageing.
- Zinc oxide: A sunscreen agent that mirrors the skin's surface. Preventing UVA and UVBs from penetrating, it reflects and scatters harmful rays.
Why a specific product for sensitive or acne-prone skin types?
Acne-prone skin is generally accompanied by an unbalance in sebum production. These skin types need as much care as a normal skin type but with extra attention. EltaMD created this range of products with an oil-free formula. This means that you are not adding unnecessary oils to your skin.
They also enriched their sunscreens with skincare actives that help calm and reduce redness. Sensitive skin types can find comfort and protection.
My Experience
EltaMD has long been on my list of products to try. I wear skin protection daily and know how unpleasant textures can be. But with this SPF46, I had no problems. The texture is light and leaves no greasy layer on the skin. The sunscreen is ideal for wearing alone as there is no white cast when using the right amount.
Another point I generally struggled with was breakouts. After using EltaMD UV Clear SPF46 Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen for over two weeks, I have not had any problems. I have experienced no breakouts, and my pigmentation and dark spots have faded considerably.
Love it! My skin feels very radiant, comfortable, and supple. I recommend this for those that like everyday protection whilst out and about.
