Developed with dermatologists, CeraVe's Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen for Face and Body - SPF 30’s hybrid formula combines mineral and chemical sun filters to help effectively reflect and absorb the sun's damaging rays. This sunscreen lotion's formula blends Zinc Oxide with chemical sun filters, combining sun protection with the benefits of a mineral sunscreen and the cosmetic elegance often found in chemical sunscreens.  This multi-benefit waterproof 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. ​Formulated with mineral sunscreen filters zinc oxide and titanium dioxide which are compliant for sale in Hawaii and Key West. • Non-comedogenic​ • Paraben-free​ • Fragrance-free​

Q: Does this act as a hydrating moisturizer, as in I could apply this after cleansing? If not, are there any mineral based products that hydrate, contains spf 30 (or above), and doesn’t leave white marks (unless it fades) for my skin?

submitted by Lia - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi there Lia, thanks for reaching out. We always recommend to cleanse, tone, moisturize and finally layer with an SPF. We recommend applying our Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 30 as the last step in your skincare routine. You may like our Ultra-Light Moisturizing Lotion with SPF 30. This product moisturizes skin and leaves a matte finish while providing Broad Spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen to help protect skin from UVA and UVB rays. We hope you give this product a try, Lia!

  • A: hi! I definitely am not an expert, but I would use this product after my normal moisturizer & cleanser. I think that this is typically for sun protection rather than moisturizing. or, you could use the Purito comfy water sun block SPF 50 for $15. I've heard really good reviews on it, it is fragrance-free and super lightweight, matte and doesn't leave white cast :)

Q: Does this dry clear or does it leave a chalky white residue like many mineral sunscreens I have tried?

submitted by mrsjb - 4 years ago
  • A: Hi there, we appreciate your interest in CeraVe Hydrating Sunscreen SPF 30 Face Lotion .Mineral-based UV filters form a protective barrier to help reflect UV rays away from the skin’s surface. Because the ingredients in a mineral sunscreen stay on the surface of the skin to help protect it, a white cast can sometimes remain after applying the product. Follow these tips to apply your mineral sunscreen: Dispense a small amount to one palm and rub your hands together Apply to one area of the body at a time and thoroughly massage into the skin The formula should spread easily without leaving a greasy residue or feel We hope this helps!

Q: Is this a non-nano sunscreen?

submitted by Nora - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi Nora, Thanks for reaching out about Mineral Sunscreen Lotion. This sunscreen provides broad spectrum protection with 100% mineral sunscreen that help reflect the sun's damaging UVA/UVB rays. This is chemical-free and formulated with three essential ceramides that help restore the skin's natural barrier and lock in moisture long after. We hope this is helpful!

Q: Is this waterproof??

submitted by KK - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi there! Thank you for reaching out about Mineral Sunscreen Lotion for Face.

We hope this was helpful!

I recently got a sample of this from my Dermatologist. She highly recommended it to me for my fair, sensitive skin. It's unscented, gentle on skin and rubs in/absorbs nicely without leaving white residue or a sticky, icky feeling. It works very well! I burn so easily. I used this once my face for a day on the lake and had zero burn! Very, very effective sunscreen!

Tube half full, sticky, runny

I think that it does the job, because it's been hot in Maine, and I've been walking the dog in full sun, since I started using the product a couple of days ago, and no sunburn. A couple of concerns, i.e., the tube is at most 2/3 full, more like half full; and the consistency is runny. Once on the face, it feels sticky to the touch all day long, thus, I would not layer foundation or tinted moisturizer over it. I will use the little that's inside the tube, but will not reorder. I love Cerave products, but this one is disappointing.

Hello MSDRUID! Thank you for sharing your experience with our Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 Face Lotion. We are pleased to hear that it effectively protected your skin from the sun, especially during your walks with your dog in the Maine heat. Knowing that you avoided sunburn is wonderful. We sincerely regret to learn about your concerns regarding the fill level of the tube, the runny consistency, and the sticky feeling it left on your skin throughout the day. We understand how frustrating it can be when a product doesn't meet your expectations, particularly when you've come to trust and love other CeraVe products. Your detailed feedback, especially about its suitability under makeup, is incredibly valuable to us as we continuously strive to improve our formulations. We appreciate you taking the time to share your honest thoughts.

I have tried a lot of different face sunscreens and this one was probably the lowest on my list. It was not greasy or super pigmented, which is great. However, I had to constantly reapply and noticed really dry skin afterward. I spoke with my esthetician and she said this brand’s ingredient list is not good for skin prone to breakouts. While I didn’t get burned, I wasn’t happy with the overall use.

CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen is a solid choice if you’re looking for gentle, effective sun protection — its texture is smooth and moisturizing without feeling heavy or greasy, which makes it great for daily wear, especially on dry or sensitive skin. The packaging is practical with a sturdy squeeze tube that’s easy to use and travel-friendly. It has a very mild, almost neutral scent that’s not overpowering, perfect for those sensitive to strong fragrances. The formula features key ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide for broad-spectrum mineral sun protection, combined with CeraVe’s signature ceramides and hyaluronic acid that help restore and maintain the skin’s natural barrier. Overall, it’s a well-balanced sunscreen that not only protects against UV rays but also supports skin hydration and health.

Works in a pinch and on a budget. This is my go-to mineral sunscreen when I’m out of my preferred. It’s affordable which is part of the reason I got it, and also use their facial cleaners and have enjoyed them. No weird smells, lasts majority of the day, and doesn’t leak from the container. The reason for 3 stars is due to the heaviness of the cream and the texture it gives my skin after. It seems to sit on top of my skin versus moisturizing and absorbing. Also made me break out which is shocking considering I’ve used their other products with no issues. I’d still use again!

I absolutely love the CeraVe Hydrating Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30! As someone with sensitive, acne-prone skin, it’s been a challenge finding a sunscreen that doesn’t clog my pores or cause irritation—but this one is perfect. It has a lightweight, creamy texture that blends in much easier than other mineral sunscreens I’ve tried. Yes, there’s a slight white cast at first, but it fades quickly and leaves my skin feeling smooth and hydrated.

I have a medium skin tone (leaning light-medium) and I am so sad to report the white cast is terrible. Want to love it because it actually gives a bit of pore smoothing for me but the white cast is too noticeable even with makeup over it.
