EltaMD UV AOX Elements Tinted Mineral Face Sunscreen Lotion, Tinted Moisturizer for Face SPF 50 with Antioxidants, For Dry Sensitive Skin 1.7 oz Pump

This sunscreen blends beautifully and offers great sun protection. I love the natural tint—it works like a light foundation and feels very comfortable on my skin.

I bought this from my Dermatologist, so happy Amazon carries this product! I don't know what to say other than that! It is a great product!

I love how it leaves my skin, it has color and removes imperfections

I've used EltaMD products for 15+ years, but I’ve struggled ever since they changed the formula of their tinted sunscreen—the new UV AOX Elements casts an orange hue on my fair, somewhat freckled skin (Type II) with rosacea. After a long trial-and-error journey (and a lot of frustration), I finally found a routine that works—and I think others with sensitive or redness-prone skin should know about it.What finally worked:EltaMD UV Skin Recovery (green-tinted) 50 SPF Red Color Correcting SunscreenThis was a dermatologist recommendation, and it’s been a game-changer. Don’t be alarmed by the green color—it fades within seconds of application and immediately counteracts redness. Over 6+ weeks, it’s also reduced my inflammation and improved my skin’s texture and tone. It’s lightweight, moisturizing, not greasy, and doesn’t irritate my rosacea or trigger breakouts. I use it as a moisturizer and as a base layer before applying tinted sunscreen. I hope Amazon will start selling it soon!CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 (Sheer Tinted)This blends beautifully and has zero orange cast. It layers over the green EltaMD UV Skin Recovery perfectly with no clumping or pilling. No smell, no transfer, and it gives a smooth, sheer tint that has buildable coverage. I use this as my primary tinted SPF.EltaMD UV AOX Elements (Tinted)I still use this—but now as a light bronzer. I layer a small amount under or over the CeraVe for a touch of warmth without letting the orange tone take over. I tried the EltaMD UV Daily, and it is more moisturizing but has a VERY orange cast! I do not recommend UV Daily.Face Wash & Serums:EltaMD Skin Recovery Amino Acid Foaming Cleanser – another win for sensitive skin, incredibly gentle and calming.CeraVe Hyaluronic Acid Serum – hydrating and light, I apply this when I need extra moisture.Photos included:I’ve uploaded photos comparing the tints of EltaMD UV AOX, UV Daily (which was even darker/oranger and transferred onto clothing), and the CeraVe Tinted Mineral SPF so you can see the difference. I also included a picture of my current full routine from face wash to sunscreen layering.Final verdict:If you have redness, rosacea, or sensitive skin—and you’ve been disappointed by the recent orange-colored EltaMD UV AOX Elements tint changes—this layered routine offers customizable coverage, sun protection, and visible skin improvement. I won’t go without the green UV Skin Recovery now. It’s that good.

Easy on the skin, nice blend with tint. Recommended.

It’s exactly what the Dr recommended!

This blends in well and doesn't have the white cast that is typical of mineral sunscreens. It feels smooth on the skin and isn't noticeable that I'm wearing a sunscreen on my face. What I don't like is that it feels thick and heavy on my skin. I actually don't need this to be water-resistant. I just want something that is easy to wash off with a basic face wash like Cetaphil. This was really hard to wash off my face and I won't be using it anymore. I just need something more light-weight and simple.
