EltaMD Mineral Sunscreen SPF 47 for Face & Body, 4.0 oz — Water-Resistant, Oil-Free Zinc Oxide

EltaMD UV Pure SPF 47 is a 100% mineral sunscreen lotion for face and body that provides broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection for kids and adults while gliding on wet or dry skin.

Lightweight and oil-free, EltaMD UV Pure combines zinc oxide and titanium dioxide to create a physical barrier that helps reflect harmful rays. Its fragrance-free, paraben-free formula absorbs quickly, is non-comedogenic, and is water resistant up to 80 minutes — making it practical for poolside play, beach days, and everyday sun exposure. Suitable for sensitive skin and a wide range of skin types, this 4.0 oz tube is designed for family use and easy application.

How does this mineral sunscreen protect my child and me?

EltaMD UV Pure uses 100% mineral actives — zinc oxide and titanium dioxide — to form a physical shield on the skin that reflects UVA and UVB rays. Unlike chemical filters that must be absorbed, these mineral ingredients sit on the skin’s surface to provide immediate protection upon application.

• SPF 47 broad-spectrum coverage for both UVA and UVB protection
• Transparent zinc oxide for less white cast than traditional minerals
• Includes vitamin C ester to help support skin resilience
• Works on wet or dry skin for flexible application at the pool or beach

Will it stay on during swimming, sweating, or play?

This sunscreen is water resistant for up to 80 minutes, so it holds up during swimming, splashing, and active play. Water resistance reduces how often sunscreen rinses off, but reapplication after 80 minutes in water or immediately after towel drying is recommended to maintain protection.

• Rated for 80 minutes water resistance for swimming and sports
• Applies to wet or dry skin without milky residue
• Reapply after heavy sweating, towel drying, or extended water exposure

Is this formula good for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Formulated to be gentle, the lotion is fragrance-free, paraben-free, oil-free, hypoallergenic, and non-comedogenic, making it suitable for many sensitive or acne-prone skin types. The lightweight texture absorbs quickly and won’t leave a heavy, greasy film that can contribute to clogged pores.

• Non-comedogenic and oil-free to reduce pore-clogging risk
• Fragrance- and paraben-free to minimize irritation potential
• Dermatologist-recommended brand with over 25 years of clinical trust

How should I use this sunscreen for best results?

Apply generously to all exposed areas at least 15 minutes before sun exposure, and be sure to cover frequently missed spots like ears, back of neck, and tops of feet. Because mineral sunscreens sit on the skin, thorough and even application ensures consistent coverage.

• Apply to wet or dry skin; rub in until even and mostly absorbed
• Reapply every two hours or after 80 minutes of water exposure
• Use a quarter-teaspoon for face and one ounce for full-body adult coverage per application

Who is this for? EltaMD UV Pure SPF 47 is ideal for families seeking a reliable mineral sunscreen that works for both children and adults, especially those with sensitive or combination skin who want a fragrance-free, non-greasy option. It’s also a good choice for active days at the pool or beach where water resistance matters, and for anyone who prefers a physical-block approach to sun protection over chemical filters. Keep it in your beach bag, stroller, or travel kit for convenient, broad-spectrum coverage whenever you head outdoors.
