Why DermWarehouse Loves Elta MD UV Clear:
When it comes to dealing with sensitive and acne-prone skin, a physical sunscreen versus a chemical sunscreen tends to fare better for avoiding irritation and further breakouts. Those with easily irritable skin may be wary of using sunscreen, but UV Clear makes it easy for acne-prone skin to get the coverage it needs while also working to clear and heal skin. This product is also a fan favorite among men, as it’s great at calming irritation from shaving. Elta MD UV Clear is a true win all around.
