EltaMD UV Clear Deep Tinted Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 is the deeper-toned version of UV Clear, made so medium and deep skin tones get daily sun protection without a grey cast. The oil-free formula pairs zinc oxide with niacinamide to calm skin prone to breakouts, redness, and discoloration. It absorbs fast and leaves a natural finish, under makeup or on its own. It is one of six tinted options in the EltaMD range.
