The problem

By the time dark spots, fine lines and rough texture appear, years of sun exposure are already behind them. Most sunscreens only stop things getting worse, and the treatment products that address what is visible make skin more sun sensitive, so mature, sun-damaged skin needs protection that also contributes.

Protect sun-damaged skin while improving how it looks.

UV Restore pairs a high level of zinc oxide with ingredients chosen for sun-damaged skin. Ginger root extract and saccharide isomerate improve smoothness and minimize the look of dark spots and discoloration, squalane replenishes moisture, and antioxidants add high-energy visible light protection. It leaves no white cast and wears well alone or under makeup.

EltaMD UV Restore SPF 40: mineral protection made for sun-damaged skin

EltaMD UV Restore Broad-Spectrum SPF 40 is a 100% physical sunscreen that visibly improves the appearance of sun-damaged skin. Its actives are 15% transparent zinc oxide and 2% titanium dioxide, and the formula contains squalane, which restores the skin's natural moisture and suppleness.

Dermatologically tested and hypoallergenic, UV Restore is formulated with ginger root extract and saccharide isomerate to help minimize the look of dark spots and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Its antioxidants combat skin-aging free radicals associated with ultraviolet and infrared light and offer high-energy visible (HEV) light protection. It is formulated for all skin types and is paraben-free, fragrance-free, dye-free, oil-free and non-comedogenic. Available at SkinCrew, an Authorized EltaMD US Retailer, with fast US shipping.

Why UV Restore SPF 40 Stands Out

  • Made for sun-damaged skin. Designed to help protect and improve the appearance of sun-damaged, mature skin and discoloration.
  • 15% zinc oxide. A high level of transparent zinc oxide, with titanium dioxide, and no chemical filters.
  • Ginger root and saccharide isomerate. Improve smoothness and minimize the look of dark spots, discoloration, fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Squalane. Plant-derived squalane restores natural moisture and suppleness in an oil-free formula.
