EltaMD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46
The sunscreen dermatologists keep recommending.
UV Clear is a cult favourite for a reason. It is a lightweight SPF 46 with niacinamide that protects while helping calm breakouts and discoloration, so it is ideal for acne-prone and sensitive skin. It feels like nothing, layers cleanly under makeup, and never clogs pores. Comes in Clear or a universal Tinted shade.
Why it is worth it
It is arguably the most-recommended facial sunscreen in dermatology, because it protects and treats at once: niacinamide calms acne and redness while the SPF shields, all in a texture acne-prone skin actually tolerates.
How it compares
For a pure mineral option, UV Physical is chemical-free. For sport and water, UV Sport. UV Clear is the everyday face sunscreen for acne-prone and sensitive skin.
Best for: acne-prone, sensitive, and combination skin.
Not ideal for: those who specifically want a 100% mineral formula.
How to use
Apply as the last step of your morning routine, after moisturizer. Reapply through the day with sun exposure.
