Elta MD - UV Daily Deep Tinted SPF 40

EltaMD UV Daily Deep Tinted Broad Spectrum SPF 40 is a sheer, lightweight moisturizing sunscreen designed and tested on deeper skin tones. It uses EltaMD's Invisible Blend Technology, which blends sheer for a finish without a white or grey cast.

Hyaluronic acid boosts skin hydration and helps soften the appearance of fine lines, so like the standard UV Daily it can serve as both moisturizer and sun protection in one step for most skin types.

It suits combination, normal, and dry skin, retains moisture, improves skin feel by reducing flaking, and restores suppleness. The formula is non-comedogenic and can be worn under makeup or alone.

1. Apply as the final step of your morning routine.
2. Use approximately a quarter teaspoon for the face, warming it briefly so the tint blends evenly.
3. Blend down the neck and into the hairline so there is no visible edge.
4. Reapply every two hours of sun exposure, and after swimming or sweating.

For most skin types this can replace the morning moisturizer. If your skin is very dry, apply a moisturizer underneath.

• Invisible Blend Technology gives a no white cast finish on deeper skin tones.

The choice between this and UV Clear Deep Tinted comes down to skin type rather than tone. Both are formulated for deeper complexions. UV Daily Deep Tinted is the hydrating one, built around hyaluronic acid and better for normal, dry, and mature skin. UV Clear Deep Tinted is oil-free with 5% niacinamide and better for oily, acne-prone, or pigment-focused routines.

Our providers recommend this version to patients with deeper skin tones whose main concern is dryness or early aging rather than breakouts or active pigment.

Whichever you choose, the important thing is that you wear it. Daily sun protection is the most effective anti-aging and anti-pigment measure available, and it is the one most patients under-use. Order it here at any time. If you would rather talk it through first, call (650) 508-6565.
