A sheer-tinted 100% mineral SPF 40 that evens the look of tone on contact and works on sun damage underneath.
Product Info

EltaMD UV Restore Tinted Broad-Spectrum SPF 40 is the tinted version of EltaMD's 100% mineral sunscreen for sun-damaged skin. Iron oxides give a sheer, universal tint that evens out the look of discoloration on contact, while 15% zinc oxide and 2% titanium dioxide handle broad-spectrum protection.

Ginger root extract, saccharide isomerate, and vitamins C and E work underneath to improve smoothness and soften the appearance of dark spots and fine lines over time, with added defense against infrared and high-energy visible light.

Key ingredients

  • Zinc Oxide — reflects and scatters UVA and UVB rays
  • Iron Oxides — sheer tint that helps neutralize the look of uneven tone and adds visible light defense
  • Ginger Root Extract — improves the look of tone, texture, and discoloration
  • Squalane — restores the skin's natural moisture and suppleness

How to use

Apply liberally to face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply at least every 2 hours. Use a water-resistant sunscreen if swimming or sweating.

Fragrance-free, oil-free, paraben-free, noncomedogenic. 1.7 oz

How to Use

Step 1: Complete your morning routine, letting serums and moisturizer absorb fully.
Step 2: Apply UV Restore Tinted liberally to the face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure. Use roughly a nickel-sized amount for the face alone and blend evenly.
Step 3: Reapply at least every 2 hours, and more often with extended time outdoors.
Step 4: Switch to a water-resistant sunscreen if swimming or sweating.

Sun protection measures: spending time in the sun increases your risk of skin cancer and early skin aging. To decrease this risk, regularly use a sunscreen with a broad spectrum SPF of 15 or higher and other sun protection measures, including limiting time in the sun between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. and wearing long-sleeved shirts, pants, hats and sunglasses. For external use only. Do not use on damaged or broken skin. Stop use and ask a doctor if rash occurs. Keep out of reach of children.

Coverage And Correction

Why You'll Love It

A tinted mineral SPF that evens the look of tone the moment it goes on, then keeps working on sun damage all day.

EltaMD UV Restore Tinted Broad-Spectrum SPF 40 1.7 oz pump bottle

Sheer Universal Tint

Iron oxides neutralize the look of uneven tone on contact and eliminate the white cast mineral formulas can leave.

Visible Light Defense

Iron oxides add protection against high-energy visible light, a known trigger for melasma and stubborn pigment.

100% Mineral

15% zinc oxide and 2% titanium dioxide, with no chemical filters, so sensitive and post-procedure skin tolerates it well.

Ginger Root Extract

Works under the tint to improve the look of tone, texture and discoloration rather than just covering it.

Key Ingredients

Tint And Defense
Iron Oxides

Tint And Defense

Iron oxides do two jobs at once. They give the sheer universal tint that neutralizes the look of redness and discoloration on contact, and they add protection against high-energy visible light, which is one of the reasons dermatologists reach for tinted sunscreens when melasma is in play.

Zinc Oxide 15%
Mineral Protection

Zinc Oxide 15%

Zinc oxide reflects and scatters both UVA and UVB rays, paired here with 2% titanium dioxide for a fully mineral active system. No chemical filters means sensitive, reactive and freshly treated skin tends to tolerate it well.

Ginger Root Extract
Tone And Texture

Ginger Root Extract

Zingiber officinale (ginger) root extract works with saccharide isomerate and stabilized vitamins C and E beneath the tint, improving the look of smoothness and softening the appearance of dark spots and fine lines rather than simply covering them.

Need to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before choosing, using, and caring for your skin with Purity products.

Explore Help Center
Will the tint match my skin tone?

It is a single sheer universal tint rather than a shade range, designed to adjust to most skin tones. On very fair or very deep skin it reads as a light wash of color rather than true coverage. If you want protection with no color at all, choose the untinted UV Restore instead.

Why does a tinted sunscreen matter for melasma?

Standard sunscreens filter UV but not high-energy visible light, which can aggravate the look of melasma and stubborn pigment. The iron oxides that create the tint also add visible light defense, which is why a tinted mineral sunscreen is so often the recommendation when discoloration is the primary concern.

Can I wear it instead of foundation?

Many people do. The tint evens the look of tone enough to carry a no-makeup day on its own, and it also sits smoothly under foundation if you want more coverage. Just remember that makeup layered on top does not extend your protection, so you still need to reapply sunscreen every two hours.

How much should I use and how often?

Apply liberally to face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure, roughly a nickel-sized amount for the face alone. Reapply at least every two hours and more often outdoors. This formula is not water resistant, so switch to a water-resistant sunscreen for swimming or heavy sweating.

Tinted or untinted, which should I buy?

The formulas are otherwise the same. Choose Tinted if you want visible light defense, instant evening of tone, and no chance of a white cast. Choose untinted if you prefer no color at all, or if you apply your own foundation and do not want two tints competing.
