EltaMD UV Clear Face Sunscreen SPF 46 — 1.7 oz Pump Pack of 2, Oil-Free Mineral Sunscreen with Niacinamide for Acne-Prone Sensitiv

EltaMD UV Clear Face Sunscreen SPF 46 is a lightweight, oil-free facial sunscreen with transparent zinc oxide and niacinamide designed to protect and soothe sensitive, acne-prone skin.

This dermatologist-recommended lotion delivers broad-spectrum SPF 46 protection against UVA and UVB rays while remaining non-comedogenic and fragrance-free. The formula uses transparent zinc oxide so it won’t leave a white cast, and includes niacinamide to help improve skin tone and reduce the appearance of discoloration. The 1.7 oz pump is travel-friendly and convenient for daily use under makeup or alone.

How does this sunscreen fit into a daily skincare routine?

Use UV Clear as the final step in your morning skincare lineup to protect against ultraviolet damage. Its lightweight, oil-free texture layers well over serums and moisturizers and works seamlessly beneath makeup.

• Apply after cleansing and moisturizing, 15 minutes before sun exposure
• Dispense from the pump for hygienic, measured application
• Reapply every two hours or after swimming, sweating, or towel-drying

Will it cause breakouts or leave a greasy finish?

The non-comedogenic, oil-free composition is formulated specifically for normal, oily, and acne-prone skin to minimize pore-clogging. Users typically notice a matte, barely-there finish rather than oily residue, making it suitable for daily wear.

• Oil-free to reduce shine and pore-clogging risk
• Transparent zinc oxide avoids the white cast common in mineral sunscreens
• Fragrance- and paraben-free to lower irritation potential

How does the formula help with discoloration and redness?

Niacinamide in the formula supports visible improvement in skin tone by helping reduce the look of blotchiness and post-inflammatory discoloration. Combined with daily sun protection, this helps prevent further UV-driven pigmentation.

• Niacinamide helps even skin tone and calm redness
• Daily SPF prevents UV-induced dark spots and hyperpigmentation
• Unscented, gentle base supports sensitive complexions

Is the travel-size pump practical for on-the-go protection?

The 1.7 oz pump is TSA-compliant and fits easily into purses, backpacks, and carry-on luggage so you can reapply wherever you are. The pump design reduces contamination and delivers consistent doses for reliable coverage.

• TSA-approved size for convenient travel
• Pump mechanism for controlled, hygienic dispensing
• Compact bottle fits small bags for easy midday reapplication

Who is this for: EltaMD UV Clear SPF 46 is aimed at people seeking effective mineral-based sun protection that won’t clog pores or leave a white cast—especially those with sensitive, acne-prone, rosacea-prone, or hyperpigmented skin.
