What is EltaMD UV Clear Blemish-Prone & Oil Balancing SPF 50?
EltaMD UV Clear Blemish-Prone & Oil Balancing SPF 50 is the newest member of the UV Clear family: a lightweight hybrid sunscreen designed for and tested on blemish-prone skin. It combines 11% zinc oxide and 3.5% octinoxate with 5% niacinamide and Zinc-AOX Pro Technology, a blend of four antioxidants with zinc oxide. In a 12-week EltaMD study of 43 subjects, it reduced visible blemishes, excess oil and the look of pore size. The non-comedogenic texture absorbs quickly to a transparent, natural finish. Apply liberally to face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure. Available at SkinCrew in 1.7 oz ($49).
Sourced direct from EltaMD: guaranteed authentic, batch-fresh, fast US shipping.
The problem
People with oily, breakout-prone skin have long felt forced to choose between sun protection and clear skin. Sunscreen adds shine by midday, heavier formulas seem to trigger congestion, and so the product that would keep fading marks from looking darker is the one that gets left out.
Protect and correct, without the trade-off.
This formula was built so that sunscreen works with blemish-prone skin. Niacinamide at 5% helps reduce the appearance of blemishes and improves overall complexion, the oil-balancing texture is non-greasy and transparent, and Zinc-AOX Pro Technology helps defend against UV rays, blue light, high-energy visible light, smog and diesel exhaust. It wears well under makeup or alone.

Why UV Clear Blemish-Prone & Oil Balancing SPF 50 Stands Out
- Tested on blemish-prone skin. EltaMD designed and tested this formula on the skin type it is meant for, in a 12-week study of 43 subjects.
- Higher SPF than the original. SPF 50 from 11% zinc oxide and 3.5% octinoxate, compared with SPF 46 in classic UV Clear.
- Zinc-AOX Pro Technology. Four antioxidants with zinc oxide to boost photostability and help protect against five environmental stressors.
- Oil balancing finish. A transparent, non-greasy texture made for skin that turns shiny by midday.
| Feature | UV Clear Blemish-Prone & Oil Balancing SPF 50 | Classic UV Clear SPF 46 | Typical mattifying sunscreens |

| Sun protection | SPF 50: 11% zinc oxide, 3.5% octinoxate | SPF 46: 9% zinc oxide, 7.5% octinoxate | Varies, often chemical filters |

| Antioxidant system | Zinc-AOX Pro Technology, four antioxidants | Vitamin E | Rarely |
| Oil and pores | Shown in a brand study to reduce excess oil and the look of pores | Oil-free | Mattifying powders, effect is temporary |
| Finish | Transparent, natural, non-greasy | Lightweight, no white cast | Matte, can feel dry |
