EltaMD UV Skin Recovery is a 100% mineral sunscreen that pairs patented barrier repair technology with the power of color correction to deliver extra care to consumers with sensitive skin or post-procedure skin. This lightweight, green-tinted formula neutralizes redness and delivers extra soothing with hero ingredients like centella asiatica and ceramides.
Lia Arvanitidou, PhD, the executive vice president of R&D in skin health at Colgate Palmolive—EltaMD's parent company—revealed to Allure that the "UV Skin Recovery SPF 50 Sunscreen is one of the "top five products of my career."
