EltaMD UV AOX Eye Broad-Spectrum SPF 30 is a 100% mineral, tinted eye sunscreen built on 15% zinc oxide. The tint corrects dull and uneven tone around the eye while the zinc handles UVA and UVB, and Persian silk tree extract works on the look of dark circles and puffiness. Vitamin E and bisabolol sit alongside it as antioxidants. Ophthalmologist tested.
Product Details
Fifteen percent zinc on eye skin, with no chemical filters at all, is the point of this one. The eye area is where most people either skip sunscreen or use a face formula that stings, and a tinted mineral cream solves both problems at once. The tint is light enough to wear alone or under concealer, and the texture leaves no residue to crease. Want the treatment step alongside it? Renew Eye Gel 0.5 OZ is the oil-free peptide gel for fine lines and puffiness, worn morning and night. For everything else EltaMD makes, browse EltaMD skincare.
