EltaMD Mineral UV Lotion SPF 30+ Sunscreen Moisturizer — Fragrance-Free, Hyaluronic Acid for Face & Body

EltaMD UV Lotion SPF 30+ is a mineral-based face and body sunscreen lotion that combines transparent zinc oxide with hyaluronic acid to hydrate skin while providing broad-spectrum UV protection without a greasy finish.

This lightweight lotion is formulated to serve as both a daily moisturizer and sunscreen for the face and body. Its zinc-oxide mineral filter reflects UVA and UVB rays, while hyaluronic acid helps the skin retain moisture for a smoother surface. Fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, the formulation is designed to work well for sensitive, acne-prone, and post-procedure skin types, and it rubs in clearly to avoid the white cast sometimes seen with mineral sunscreens.

How will this sunscreen fit into my everyday skincare routine?

Use EltaMD UV Lotion as the final step in your morning skincare regimen, applying it after serums and lightweight moisturizers. It absorbs quickly and can replace a separate body lotion when you want all-over protection. Reapply after water exposure or heavy sweating for continued effectiveness.

• Apply generously 15 minutes before sun exposure to face and body
• Suitable as both daily facial sunscreen and full-body lotion
• Reapply at least every 2 hours during prolonged sun exposure
• Water resistant for up to 40 minutes—ideal for short swims or sweat

Will it leave my skin feeling greasy or look ashy on darker tones?

The formulation is designed to absorb without a heavy or oily residue, giving a natural, non-greasy finish. The transparent zinc oxide helps minimize the typical white cast of mineral sunscreens, so it blends well into a range of skin tones for everyday wear.

• Non-greasy texture that layers under makeup
• Transparent zinc oxide reduces visible residue on skin
• Fragrance-free and lightweight for comfortable all-day wear
• Non-comedogenic—won’t clog pores or worsen acne-prone skin

What skincare benefits does this SPF lotion provide beyond sun protection?

In addition to broad-spectrum SPF coverage, EltaMD UV Lotion includes hyaluronic acid to attract and retain moisture, smoothing dryness and flakiness. Vitamin E provides antioxidant support to help protect skin from environmental stressors that can accelerate visible aging.

• Hyaluronic acid boosts hydration and skin suppleness
• Vitamin E offers antioxidant support against free radicals
• Regular use helps maintain skin hydration and reduce rough texture
• Hypoallergenic and formulated for sensitive or treated skin

Is this product safe for sensitive or post-procedure skin?

The lotion’s gentle, fragrance-free formulation makes it suitable for many sensitive skin types, including skin recovering from dermatologic procedures. Because it is mineral-based and non-comedogenic, it’s a commonly recommended choice when chemical sunscreens are not preferred.

• Mineral zinc oxide is often tolerated after procedures
• Fragrance-free and paraben-free to reduce irritation risk
• Non-comedogenic to help prevent pore blockage or breakouts
• Dermatologist-recommended brand with a long clinical history

Who this is for: EltaMD UV Lotion SPF 30+ is aimed at anyone seeking a two-in-one daily moisturizer and mineral sunscreen that performs on face and body. It’s particularly well suited to people with sensitive, dry, mature, or acne-prone skin who want a lightweight, non-greasy protector that supports hydration. If you prefer mineral filters, need a fragrance-free formula, or want a sunscreen that doubles as a hydrating lotion for everyday use and short water activities, this lotion is a practical choice.
