Questions & Answers
It's a SPF moisturizer with a light tint. This tinted moisturizer is what I use under my foundation because I have fair skin. I have fair skin, and the moisturizer complements it beautifully.
It's a long list, and I'm sure it varies depending on how much you use it. I like the product, but the pump tube keeps falling off, making it impossible to use as a pump. Because of this, I had to return the first one, and the replacement had the same issue. However, you can use it without unscrewing the top.
It doesn't leave a white cast on my skin, but it does give me a slight golden transparent natural tint. It should work for you, but you must test it for yourself. I was initially concerned, but it applies similarly to a moisturizer. It seemed to me to be the most effective anti-oxidant sunscreen on the market. It's non-sticky and non-greasy, and it's safe to use around the eyes. I hope this has been of some assistance to you.
I don't use foundation in any way. It's a little reflective and tinted, so I wear it on its own.

This sunscreen is one of my favorites! It's silky smooth and can be worn alone or with makeup. If it weren't for the fact that it's too dark for my fair skin, I would have given it five stars. I'm exchanging for a tint that isn't tinted.
I'm constantly experimenting with sunscreens, especially for my face. This is on par with the best. However, at $17 per ounce, it is absurdly expensive. Ouch! The condition of the packaging is poor. Why did Elta MD place this product in a pump-action bottle? Rather than a standard tube, why not use a type dispenser? This thing spits out product, which is all over my mirror, sink, and clothes. Every spit is a squandering of funds. So, as much as I enjoy the product, I will not buy it again unless the packaging changes.
This spf is one of my favorites. Three bottles have been purchased by me. It's light and hydrating, but not overly so for my oily skin. It doesn't irritate my skin or give me a textured appearance. On my fair skin, the tint is just right. There is no orange in this. It provides the same level of coverage as a tinted moisturizer. Love it!.
Elta MD Elements is a fantastic product. as well as being water resistant (for a limited time - Like any sunblock, you should reapply whenever you go into the water. ) The tint is a little dark for my taste. For a perfect color match, I've paired it with Paula's Choice face sunblock. for me. as suggested by Angie from the Hot and Flashy YouTube channel. The majority of the face sunscreens I use cause my eyes to water - Despite the fact that I never used it near my eyes. When it comes to applying sunblock, I only go as far as my cheeckbones. Both of these products allow me to get right around the eyes without causing irritation!.
This is the first sunscreen I've ever tried that felt great on my skin; it's high-end skincare. It's suitable for all skin types, from dry to oily, as well as those with sensitive skin. It has a hydrating, non-greasy feel to it. Even though it's mineral-based, it applies smoothly and doesn't leave a white cast. Only the darkest and lightest skin tones will notice a difference in the tint, but most people will find it unnoticeable. The satin finish appears to be healthy. The UVA and UVB protection is excellent, and I would strongly recommend it.
GREAT TINTED BUT 4 STARS FOR BAD PACKAGING. So far, I haven't found my holy grail. I ordered the physical spf 41 and returned it because it was too dry for me and the tint was too light. Isn't this one of the best elements ever? It absorbs quickly and dries quickly, leaving a nice glow and no white cast on my Asian skin tone. The tube, on the other hand, is poorly designed, making it difficult to remove the sunscreen without making a mess. The tube breaks on the second day! SO CHANGE THAT PLS, just make it a simple package like the spf 41 and lower the price because the ingredients are slightly different from the spf 41 but it's more expensive, which I believe is due to the nice looking tube? No one needs a fancy bottle that doesn't even work properly!.
On a six-day camping trip to Lake Shasta, I wore this every day! I didn't have any burns when I got back! Of course, I wore a hat, and I believe it aided in the reflection of the lakes. Even though I have olive skin, you couldn't tell I was wearing a tinted sunscreen. I used some under my eyes to help with the dark circles (come on ladies, you know how camping with kids isn't exactly a "vacation"), and it worked. The only drawback is that it would crease, but that's nothing a little dab of concealer couldn't fix. In any case, if you're looking for a moisturizer with a hint of tint and SPF, this is the product for you. This will be my face sunscreen for the foreseeable future!.
This isn't a moisturizer, and the tint on my fair skin (Mac NC 15) is a little too dark to wear alone. It is, however, an excellent sunscreen. Especially for a mineral sunscreen, it blends in well with makeup. This is the product to use if you have sensitive skin and want to wear makeup. If I were a tad darker, I'd definitely wear this on its own because the tint evens out skin tone enough for a day without makeup. I would strongly suggest it.
