Description

Introducing CeraVe's first-ever hybrid sunscreen for use on face and body.
Developed with dermatologists, CeraVe's Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30’s hybrid formula combines mineral and chemical sun filters to help effectively reflect and absorb the sun's damaging rays. Mineral filters form a physical barrier to help reflect UVA and UVB rays. Chemical filters efficiently take in UVA and UVB rays which are then released as heat. Our formula blends Zinc Oxide with chemical sun filters, providing the benefits of a mineral sunscreen with the cosmetic elegance often found in chemical sunscreens.

This multi-benefit sunscreen helps protect you from the sun's harmful rays while also delivering instant hydration that lasts all day long. Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen’s ultra-lightweight fluid formula goes on white to guide an even application and is absorbed within seconds for a non-greasy finish without any white residue. This formula leaves skin feeling velvety soft and smooth to the touch, and comfortable. When used on the face, this product helps prime skin for makeup by creating an even base for application. Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen wears well under makeup and does not pill. It will not move when sweating, transfer onto clothes or run into eyes, allowing you to enjoy your time in the sun.

• Suitable for all skin tones, all skin types including sensitive skin and acne-prone, and ages 3+ years. Unisex
• Allergy-tested, paraben-free, fragrance-free and non-comedogenic (won't clog pores)
• Ophthalmologist-tested
• Water-resistant for up to 80 minutes.
• Recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation for Active Use
• FSA Eligible & HSA Eligible

    Works best for body

    I like this for body but pulled under makeup on face. The scent and texture were fine. I had originally bought it for my face but ended up using it on my body instead.

    Non greasy and no white cast!

    This is a good amount for the price, it absorbs into The skin nicely and doesn’t leave a white cast and it doesn’t feel greasy. I reapplied and it still absorbs nicely and doesn’t feel greasy or ”heavy”.

    Very hydrating and light texture

    I've been into sunscreen a lot lately and this one from CeraVe is really good. I like the texture and how hydrating it is. It has a white cast but it blends in nicely once you work it into your skin. It leaves a glowy look which I personally like a lot.

    Cerave Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen

    This sunscreen stands out for its hybrid formula, which combines chemical and mineral filters (zinc oxide). It's ideal if you're looking for the physical protection of mineral sunscreens without the heavy texture or excessive white cast. Unlike other CeraVe mineral sunscreens that can leave a white cast, this "Sheer" version blends in much better, making it suitable for a variety of skin tones.

    Product good for most skin type just not so much o

    This product is super light weight on my skin but can feel a little bit like grease after long wear use. It covers many of my blemishes and reduces the look of redness. Applying it with some powder also helps reduce residue on the skin. It does not pill off your skin which is so important in these products. For a very affordable price you are getting your moneys worth.

    10/10 for me

    Feels very light weight and thin which I live. Doesn’t have a very strong sunscreen smell thankfully. Doesn’t leave a whitecast so it looks very natural like if yo aren’t wearing any. Absorbs into the skin beautifully. And layers great with makeup.

    Lightweight and hydrating, this CeraVe sheer sunscreen never flakes, soothes dry skin, and leaves my sensitive skin ok!! The texture is amazing and it gets away all the residue on your skin.

    So good

    Lightweight, hydrating, and absorbs quickly. Good for sensitive or dry skin with ceramides + zinc plus chemical filters. Blends into skin well with minimal white residue. Great under makeup. Easy to reapply on face or body.

    not for anyone with over an ounce of melanin

    would enjoy more if it didn't leave a horrible white cast on my skin and didn't blend in. sunscreen is important but it needs to be practical and believe me when I say most people don't want to walk around looking like pennywise. shame because i enjoy the consistency its effective but that doesn't matter if i never want to use it. when i say it doesn't blend in it doesn't blend in no matter how much time or rubbing I do. medium dark skin for reference.

    Clean ingredients and constant improvement

    CeraVe is my go to. Not only do I use it for body lotion, face wash, but especially the sunscreen. The label doesn’t lie when it says hydrating and sheer because it comes off so smooth, doesn’t build up on my face and leave leftover marks, and doesn’t require constant reapplication. The scent doesn’t leave a strong sunscreen smell either(even though I don’t even mind it). The cap securely clicks on so it’s easy to throw in my bag with no fear that it will leak. I typically have very oily skin and it has never caused a breakout. The ingredients ceraVe use are so clean I will always rely on them.

    Long-lasting protection with a lightweight, non-gr

    CeraVe Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen offers impressive durability, lasting well throughout the day without feeling heavy. It absorbs quickly and leaves no greasy residue, making the application smooth and effortless. The experience is comfortable on the skin—lightweight, hydrating, and non-irritating. The amount provided is reasonable for daily use, especially considering how little product is needed to achieve full protection.

    Love it!

    I love how this white sunscreen blends away quickly, after showing me I've touched every part of my face. Question though: is the hydrating aspect enough so I don't need to also add a Cerave moisturizer? And if I DO need to add a moisturizer, which goes first the sunscreen or the moisturizer?
