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.

How to use: Apply CeraVe Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30 liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure. Children under 6 months of age: ask a doctor before using.

I like this sunscreen! It feels light on my skin and not greasy at all. Blends in easily and doesn’t leave a white cast. I like that I can use it for face and body. Tried this on a sunny day. I used it on my face and arms — didn’t get a sunburn at all. Just don't forget to reapply. No strong smell, which I love. Definitely a new favorite!
Lovely and effective

I love this SPF, it feels very moisturizing and emollient on the skin. There is a slight cast but after massaging the product in it’s all but gone. However those with deeper skin tones may have a bit of a cast

Protects my skin from the sun. Doesn't leave me feeling greasy. No bad smells and it gives a nice glow to my skin! Easy packaging to open and one of the sunscreens with safer ingredients.
Easy to layer!

I love CeraVe SPF! It’s a staple in my daily routine; lightweight, moisturizing, quick to absorb, and easy to layer. Works for all skin types, which explains why dermatologists highly recommend it.
Fine, no seal though

Nice, leaves a natural finish, virtually no white cast. Disappointed that there was no foil seal though.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sunscreen is very hydrating and feels gentle on the skin. I like that it doesn't leave a strong white cast and absorbs fairly well. However, it can feel a bit greasy on my face after a few hours, especially in warm weather. It works better for body use than under makeup. Overall, it's a decent sunscreen, but not my favorite for daily facial use.
Great sunscreen!

I spent a long time standing in the store trying to choose a good sunscreen — the options were overwhelming. After comparing several, I went with CeraVe Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen SPF 30, and I’m so glad I did! It has a lightweight texture, doesn’t leave my skin greasy, and applies really easily. Most importantly, it doesn’t clog pores and has no unpleasant smell — actually, it smells nice or barely has any scent at all. The tube is also a generous size for a facial sunscreen. After spending a lot of time in the sun recently, I applied it to my face but forgot to put any on my shoulders… The result? My face was perfectly fine, but my shoulders got sunburned. So yes — it really works! I definitely recommend it as a facial sunscreen.

Nope. Not for sensitive skin. Not for me at least. Sunscreen made me itch for at least a week. Maybe it works for others.

I love this sunscreen! Finally a light tint perfect for my skin tone and wonderfully hydrating. I don't have to use much makeup anymore as this provides perfect coverage. It is greasy when first applied, but it dries to a wonderful almost matte finish. Please don't stop making this light tint!

I don't know how it's possible, but after two years of being free of breakouts, I've been getting acne again. It happened once I started using this sunscreen. I usually use a different brand, and this particular product has made me really shiny (I got a new driver's license made and they needed me to blot my face and do a retake because my skin was reflecting the flash too much in the photo), and pimples have formed on the perimeters of my face-- some on my cheeks, around the eyes, but the worst are the clusters of small pimples on my neck/behind the ears. The only things that has changed in my skincare is this SPF. I am really puzzled and annoyed!
I would buy this product and recommend it

I thought this product would not give me white sunscreen marks but it does.
1 reply from Cerave Product Expert team - 11 months ago
Hello Sj! We understand your disappointment regarding the white cast left by the CeraVe Hydrating Sheer Sunscreen Lotion. We're committed to offering sun protection that caters to all skin tones. While formulated for seamless blending, the mineral UV filters (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide), excellent for sensitive skin, can sometimes leave a slight white residue, especially on deeper complexions. To minimize this, apply thin layers, allowing each to absorb fully before applying the next, and ensure your skin is well-moisturized beforehand. The white cast may also diminish after a few minutes. We continually strive to improve our products and encourage you to explore our other sunscreens, including tinted options. We value your feedback and are dedicated to providing effective sun protection for everyone.
Great purchase!

This sunscreen is great. It doesn’t make you break out after, and I have acne prone skin. It does not leave a white cast on my skin at all. It’s a tiny bit greasy, leaves a little shine after use. That is worth it to me however because does not irritate eyes at all, I also have extremely sensitive eyes. I would highly recommend!
WOW!

I love this sunscreen! It's the perfect combination of chemical and physical protection. I use it after washing my face in the morning in place of my moisturizer, so it's one and done (love that!). On initial application, it leaves a slight white cast on my mature medium tone skin but quickly absorbs into a clear finish which is perfect base for my cream foundation. I hope to see more sunscreens in a hybrid formula on the market. Perhaps one with higher SPF or a tinted version (hint, hint!).

I don't know how to feel for this product. Yes, this sunscreen is good, but not for daily use. When I first put this on my face (After doing skincare and letting it dry) It felt a bit, key word, BIT greasy. Not fully greasy, but a bit of grease. I also had a faint white cast on my face too. I think it's okay if you're using it on your body/face if you have no other option, but this wouldn't be my first choice.

Cerave is my go-to essentials and I am happy with the Sheer Sunscreen SPF 30 as I can put on in the morning any time of the year. I want to be protected from strong UV rays on my skin. The scent reminds me of the beach and the absorption is amazing as it automatically does it.

Amazing!! This product has everything one can want when it comes to facial sunscreen. It is light, leaves no film residue, it is clear, and most important it is gentle. I would have given it a complete five stars except for the fact that the bottle always seems to come half full. The price is very good for the quality of products but in only getting a half bottle kind of diminishes that a little.
