      Best sunscreen out there

      by teiram (1 review)
      This is the absolute best you can get. It has a 9% zinc oxide for great protection, moisturizing so you can use it alone, (I use it with moisturizer b/c my skin is dry) doesn't leave white streaks, and it feels great after you put it on. you can't ask for more from a sunscreen.

      Great for those with Rosacea!

      by simpsons4ever (3 reviews)
      My dermatologist suggested this product because I have rosacea with tendencies to break out around my nostrils. The product works very well. I use it after cleansing, before my foundation primer. I have never gotten red or sunburned when using this product, even if I am in the sun for several hours. Highly recomme...nded!

      Complete protection without SPF chemicals, light on skin

      by marisalauren (2 reviews)
      I wouldn't trade this sunblock. It is a physical block perfect for sensitive skin and those looking to avoid penetrating chemicals. But it doesn't leave a white residue like others. Blends right in. I've never found better sun protection and skincare in one product. December 5, 2007, 1:11 pm

      Great sunscreen

      by cpicou (10 reviews)
      My dermatologist recommended this sunscreen, and I really liked it. It went on easily like a moisturizer, and it really protected my skin from sun - even though the first time I used it I was on a motorcycle for 11 hours - in August! I am a little concerned about the parabens (I don't like chemical ingredients) but I will u...se this again. August 26, 2008, 8:10 am

      AMAZING!

      by RADRIOT010 (4 reviews)
      Elta does not leave those unwanted white smear marks on your face and neck. I use it everyday after I wash my face and it makes my skin smooth and incredible to touch. Plus an added spf to block out those painful sun rays!!! would not trade it for anything else!!! December 11, 2007, 10:40 am

      Great buy

      by Foxijt (20 reviews)
      Absorbs well into the skin, doesn't leave a mask like appearance. Costly, but well worth it. One of the few that doesn't make my skin supper oily. April 22, 2009, 11:45 pm

      Best sunscreen I have EVER used

      by italiaca (147 reviews)
      Top 100 Reviewer
      Having battled with acne for years (and hyperpigmentation), I need sunscreen but have reacted badly to some. After applying this, there is absolutely no greasy feeling residue. It melts into the skin and I know it's providing the protection I need. I bought this from my dermatologist's office and they know my skin better th...an anyone. I hope they never stop making this sunscreen! August 5, 2008, 8:08 pm

      Almost perfect

      by Amina65 (6 reviews)
      This would be a GREAT product if it wasn't loaded with parabens. Unfortunatly, that's the only reason it gets a low grade. May 20, 2008, 9:53 am
