EltaMD UV Restore Tinted Mineral Sunscreen SPF 40 for Face — 1.7 oz, Zinc Oxide + Squalane Hydrating Tinted Moisturizer

EltaMD UV Restore Tinted Sunscreen SPF 40 is a mineral-based, tinted facial moisturizer that protects against UVA/UVB rays while helping replenish moisture in sun-damaged skin.

This lightweight, dermatologist-recommended formulation blends non-nano zinc oxide and titanium dioxide with a sheer tint to provide daily sun protection and a natural-looking coverage you can wear alone or under makeup. Enriched with squalane to help restore suppleness and ginger root extract to support skin radiance, the product is free of fragrance, parabens, and dyes and is noncomedogenic, making it suitable for many skin types.

How does this tinted sunscreen protect and suit sun-damaged skin?

UV Restore uses physical mineral filters—zinc oxide plus titanium dioxide—that reflect and scatter UVA and UVB rays. Its tinted formula helps even skin tone while providing visible coverage, and the antioxidant-rich ginger extract supports the look of healthier skin without harsh additives.

• Broad-spectrum mineral protection with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide
• Tinted coverage to camouflage uneven tone and mild discoloration
• Fragrance-, paraben-, and dye-free to minimize irritation risk
• Noncomedogenic, suitable for poster-prone areas like the face

Will this moisturizer keep skin hydrated throughout the day?

The formula includes squalane, a lightweight emollient that helps restore and lock in moisture without a greasy finish. Because it’s designed as a tinted moisturizer, it balances hydration with sun protection for everyday wear under various climates and makeup routines.

• Squalane supports the skin’s natural moisture barrier
• Sheer, non-greasy texture works well under foundation
• Leaves a smooth finish that reduces the need for heavy creams

How should I use EltaMD UV Restore with my makeup routine?

Apply this tinted sunscreen as the final step in your skincare routine and before any liquid or powder makeup. The subtle tint evens the complexion, so it can be worn alone for light coverage or as a base layer to improve foundation wear and longevity.

• Use daily as the last skincare step, after serums and moisturizers
• Blend evenly over face and neck using fingers, brush, or sponge
• Reapply every two hours when exposed to direct sun or after sweating

Is this product compatible with sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Formulated without fragrance, parabens, and dyes and labeled noncomedogenic, UV Restore is intended to minimize pore-clogging and irritation. As with any topical product, patch testing is recommended for very reactive skin types to confirm tolerance.

• Noncomedogenic design helps reduce breakouts for many users
• Dye- and fragrance-free to lower irritation potential
• Dermatologist-recommended mineral ingredients
