Why broad-spectrum sunscreens matter

Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with UVA and UVB protection. UVB rays are the main cause of sunburn. UVA rays also contribute to skin cancer and premature aging.*

Age-defying sun protection

According to the American Academy of Dermatologists, wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen every day on sun-exposed skin helps prevent premature skin aging.*

*American Academy of Dermatology, aad.org June 2018.

Sunscreens for every skin type in every season.

All EltaMD sunscreens are formulated with zinc oxide, a natural mineral compound. Because zinc maintains its protective ability in the sun. Zinc is safe for even the most sensitive skin types. EltaMD does not formulate with avobenzone or oxybenzone.

In every season, skin damaging UV rays can pass through windows.+

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you use it when your at the beach
Answer:	My entire purpose for purchasing this was so I could wear to the beach as a moisturizer and sunscreen it is in credibly sticky and goes on exactly like sunscreen does very white but even trying to cover with make up the moisturizer was just too sticky. I’ve had it now for quite a while and I keep trying to use it and I keep remembering why I don’t like it
Question:	Is this a good moisturizer to use after washing your face and before putting on makeup
Answer:	If you have oily skin, this would probably be enough moisture before putting on makeup. If you need a little more, apply your moisturizer before sunscreen, and then put on your makeup. For me, after washing my face, I use a splash of rose water, followed by vitamin C serum, then this DRMTLGY moisturizing sunscreen, and then I put on a little make up to even out my skin tone.
Question:	Does this leave a greasy look
Answer:	This leaves a shiny look immediately after putting it on but, for me, after about 10 minutes, it sinks in and looks more dewy if anything. If you generally have a more oily face it might make your face look shiny but for minimally oily to normal faces it gives you more of a glow. I don't wear full face makeup so I don't know how it sits, I just know how it looks on me barefaced.
Question:	What are all of the ingredients? Can someone take a picture of the back of the bottle
Answer:	Zinc Oxide 12.00%, Octinoxate 7.50%, Water, Cyclopentasiloxane, Niacinamide, Oleth-3 Phosphate, Octyldodecyl Neopentanoate, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Polyisobutene, PEG-7 Trimethylolpropane Coconut Ether, Glycerin, Tocopheryl Acetate, Polygonum Aviculare Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Hydroxide, Citric Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Polyglyceryl-3 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone, Triethoxysilylethyl Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Hexyl Dimethicone, Triethoxycaprylylsilane

User questions & answers

Question:	does this leave a white cast behind
Answer:	No, it does not leave a white cast.
Question:	Does this work on oily skin
Answer:	Absolutely! I have terribly oily skin during the summer, but this sunscreen is non-greasy, easy to apply and work into, affordable, bottle is portable, cool on the skin and is mineral based (safest variety of sunscreen to use). It helps to matte my skin and can be used as a sub for primer (I'm the lady partner of this user's account :cP ).I keep one bottle at home and one in my bag for reapplication (all sunscreen should be reapplied a few times if out in the sun for a long time).I highly recommend it!
Question:	How does this perform under makeup
Answer:	It performs well. I have pretty normal skin, my t-zone can get a bit oily but only when I have on make-up. This sets down pretty matte (not dry though) so it makes a good base for make up.
Question:	Can you list the ingredients
Answer:	Here’s a list from 1/11/2020 from the company’s website: INGREDIENTS Water, Cyclopentasiloxane, Zinc Oxide, Alcohol, Dicaprylyl Ether, Dipropylene Glycol, Titanium Dioxide, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Viscum Album (Mistletoe) Leaf Extract, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, Opuntia Ficus-Indica Extract, Carex Humillis Root Extract, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil, Pinus Sylvestris Leaf Oil, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract, Malpighia Emarginata (Acerola) Fruit Extract, Terminalia Ferdinandiana Fruit Extract, Echium Plantagineum Seed Oil, Adansonia Digitata Seed Oil, Hyaluronic Acid, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Cardiospermum Halicacabum Flower/Leaf/Vine Extract, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil Unsaponifiables, Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer, Peg-10 Dimethicone, Cyclomethicone, Magnesium Sulfate, Polymethylsilsesquioxane, Methicone, 1,2-Hexanediol, Aluminum Hydroxide, Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer, Caprylyl Glycol, Octyldodecanol, Dimethicone, Stearic Acid, Glyceryl Caprylate, Polyglyceryl-6 Polyricinoleate, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Butylene Glycol, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Cellulose Gum

•Stay out of the sun between noon and 4pm

•No direct sun exposure for children before 3 years old

Question:	Does it come with any plastic packaging
Answer:	Hi Susan! Thank you for your interest in the Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 30. This is a 100 percent Mineral filter based sunscreen, also known as a physical sunscreen, reflects UVA/UVB rays to help protect the skin, so it does have good coverage. If you'd like a higher coverage for SPF, you can try the Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 50! We hope this information helped and you can use our products with great satisfaction!
Question:	Is this more of a balm or a cream? Curious for carry-on luggage
Answer:	Hi there! Yes, all CeraVe sunscreens, including Tinted Sunscreen with SPF 30 is FSA/HSA eligible. We hope you find this information to be helpful!
Question:	Can this be used on the face
Answer:	Hi there! As with all CeraVe products, this tinted facial sunscreen features three essential ceramides to help restore the skin’s natural barrier and lock in moisture. Unlike many other tinted sunscreens, Hydrating Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Face Sheer Tint is also formulated with soothing niacinamide and hyaluronic acid to help maintain the skin’s natural moisture—while leaving a sheer, natural finish that blends seamlessly with the skin. If you feel your skin is on the dryer side, you may need a moisturizer before applying this tinted sunscreen. We hope this was helpful!
Question:	Is here any coconut in the ingredients
Answer:	Hi there! It normally does not. To ensure you are buying an authentic CeraVe product on Amazon, only purchase CeraVe branded items that are designated as "Ships and Sold by Amazon.com”; products sold by distributors or third parties are not necessarily authorized. This designation is listed under the item’s purchase price. We hope this was helpful!

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this product have phthalates
Answer:	Hi there. Yes, our facial sunscreen can most definitely be worn under makeup. If you are using another moisturizer (not necessary) apply the sunscreen after the moisturizer. The base of our facial sunscreen formula is an organic moisturizer, so unless you have excessively dry skin, another moisturizer is not necessary. After applying the sunscreen simply carry on with your makeup application. Because this is a mineral sunscreen it will leave a protective layer (minerals) on your skin to provide the SPF. Please let us know if you have any additional questions. Best, Danielle - Beauty by Earth
Question:	Does this contain non-nano titanium dioxide and non-nano zinc oxide? Does this contain octinoxate
Answer:	Hi Adam, Our facial sunscreen is made right here in the USA. It is formulated, packaged and everything in the US. Hope this helps! - Danielle, Beauty by Earth
Question:	What is the expiration date
Answer:	Hi Matthew, No none of our products, including this sunscreen contact Phenoxyethanol. We use a preservative system called Radish Root Ferment Filtrate. Thanks, Customer Service
Question:	Is this product cruelty free
Answer:	According to the skin cancer website, zinc oxide, the sunscreen used in this product, blocks uva1, uva2, and uvb. The website suggests a sunscreen greater than 15 %. This one has 20 %. I used it in Hawaii with good results.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this allow you to actually tan or prevent you from tanning
Answer:	There is a plastic security rim around the new package, but the container is metal.
Question:	Does this contain alcohol
Answer:	Seems to depend on what version you buy. I bought the bottled version (not on Amazon) and it was a rich, spreadable cream. I bought the tinned version on Amazon and it is a very sticky balm that does not spread or leave the tin well. (Makes me wonder if the Amazon version is legit or if it was stored properly, but there we go.)
Question:	When reapplying does it keep getting darker from tint
Answer:	yes, I have very sensitive skin and this does not irritate it at all...great product
Question:	Can someone explain what is meant by “tinted
Answer:	No coconut oil, only cocoa butter. The ingredients from their website are as follows: Active Ingredient: Non Nano Zinc Oxide (23%) Inactive Ingredients: Sunflower Oil*, Green Tea*, Black Tea*, Coffee Bean*, Hemp Seed Oil*, Cocoa Butter*, Mango Butter**, Beeswax*, Rosemary Oil Extract**, Vitamin E** * USDA Certified Organic ** Certified Natural
