EltaMD UV Restore Tinted Mineral Sunscreen SPF 40, 1.7 oz (2-Pack) — Hydrating, Anti-Aging Zinc Formula

EltaMD UV Restore Tinted Face Sunscreen SPF 40 is a mineral, tinted facial sunscreen formulated to protect and help improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin while providing daily hydration.

EltaMD UV Restore combines broad-spectrum mineral filters with skin-restoring ingredients in a lightweight tinted finish that blends into the complexion. Designed for daily wear, this fragrance- and dye-free formula shields skin from UVA/UVB exposure, helps even tone, and supports moisture balance with squalane. It’s dermatologist-recommended and suitable to wear alone or under makeup.

How does this sunscreen support sun-damaged skin?

The formula uses non-chemical mineral blockers to provide broad-spectrum defense while complementing repair-focused skincare. Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide create a protective barrier against UVA and UVB rays, and supportive ingredients aim to improve skin texture and visual discoloration over time.

• Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide for mineral-based sun protection
• Squalane to restore and maintain skin hydration
• Tinted pigments to help mask uneven tone and dark spots

Will this product work under my makeup or as a light coverage base?

Yes — the tinted finish is formulated to layer smoothly under foundation or act as a light-coverage skin tint on its own. It blends to a natural, non-greasy appearance so it can serve as a morning base for makeup routines or a stand-alone finish for quick protection and even tone.

• Tinted formula doubles as a complexion primer or sheer coverage
• Noncomedogenic and lightweight for daily layering
• Compatible with most foundations and pressed powders

Is this mineral sunscreen suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Formulated without fragrance, dyes, or parabens, this EltaMD mineral sunscreen is intended to be gentle on sensitive complexions. The noncomedogenic composition reduces the likelihood of pore clogging while delivering hydration and protection, making it suitable for many skin types.

• Fragrance-free and dye-free to lower irritation risk
• Noncomedogenic texture minimizes pore congestion
• Dermatologist-recommended for facial use

How should I apply EltaMD UV Restore for best results?

Apply liberally to clean, dry skin 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapply every two hours or after swimming or heavy sweating. Use it as the last step in your morning skincare routine before makeup for optimal protection and a seamless finish.

• Apply evenly to face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure
• Reapply every two hours or after water contact or perspiration
• Can be used alone or prioritized under makeup
