EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad-Spectrum SPF 40

The EltaMD UV Daily Tinted Broad-Spectrum SPF 40 is a lightweight, moisturizing facial sunscreen with a sheer universal tint that helps even skin tone instantly. Formulated with hyaluronic acid for sustained hydration, this is one of EltaMD's most beloved daily face sunscreens - perfect for clients who want hydration, sun protection, and subtle complexion-evening in one streamlined product.

At Le Petit Spa in Charlotte, NC, UV Daily Tinted is a staple recommendation for clients in their 20s through 50s with normal-to-combination skin who want a polished, healthy finish without applying a separate tinted moisturizer or BB cream. The sheer tint blurs minor imperfections, gives a natural radiance, and pairs beautifully with concealer for spot coverage - making it the easiest path to a 'no makeup' look that still looks pulled together.

FAQ

Does UV Daily Tinted leave a white cast?
No. The sheer universal tint is designed to blend into most skin tones without the chalky white cast common to many mineral sunscreens.

Can I wear this instead of a tinted moisturizer?
Yes - many clients use it as their only base product on low-makeup days, since it evens tone while protecting and hydrating skin.

Is it safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
It's fragrance-free, paraben-free, and dermatologist-tested, though clients with very reactive or acne-prone skin may prefer the niacinamide-based UV Clear Tinted.

How much should I apply?
Use roughly a nickel-sized amount to cover the face, neck, and any exposed skin for full SPF coverage.

Can I layer makeup on top?
Yes. It sets to a lightweight, non-greasy finish that makeup applies smoothly over.

How often should I reapply for real sun protection?
Reapply at least every 2 hours during sun exposure, and immediately after swimming, sweating, or towel drying.
