Great mineral sunscreen
I have acne prone/sensitive skin so this stuff is wonderful. There is no burning when I put this on my face and it absorbs immediately. I do have oily skin as well so this was great because it was none greasy and didn’t leave me looking shiny.

Great sunscreen!
Mineral sunscreens are best for my skin, and this one completely disappears. No breakouts and plenty of sun protection. I would love SkinMedica to make a completely mineral version that is water resistant too!

Great Mineral sunscreen
After recently having skin cancer I've made a conscious effort to step up my sunscreen game. This is the first mineral sunscreen product I have tried after doing some research. I use this product every morning before heading out for a run. Been using it for several weeks and am very happy with my purchase. I only need a small amount for my face. It absorbs quickly and fully. Face does not feel greasy or get any white residue.

My go-to sunscreen for face
Use this daily after moisturizing face neck and chest and doesn't leave a sunscreen heavy or greasy feeling on skin. Makeup applies easily over the product.

Excellent sunscreen
I love all of SkinMedica's products. This is really good. Goes on nice and smooth and does not leave a white "haze" on my skin because of the zinc oxide. I have been using this for awhile and I really like it. I would highly recommend this!

Great for sensitive skin!
This worked wonderfully on my skin - no irritation or breakouts compared to other brands. I did not experience any white cast, which is a plus and very smooth and easy to apply on after my moisturizer. I’m happy I tried this and can say that the search for a good face sunscreen is finally over. Highly recommended!

Disappears on the face
Love this!! I'm nc20, so take it with that, but no white cast at all. It disappears on the skin. Light weight and wears great under makeup. I first bought the tinted version. I loved the formula, but the tint was too dark / orange for my skin tone. I love this one more.

I am obsessed with this sunscreen
Every other sunscreen I try after using this one just does not compare. It feels so amazing going on the skin and stays feeling great throughout the day. It leaves zero white cast which is even better. I cannot tell you how much I recommend this sunscreen to my friends.

I like this sunscreen
I had been using the Skin Medica Total Defense + Repair for a long time. I wanted to try a physical block only, so after reading reviews, I decided on the Essential Defense Mineral Shield. So far, I like how it is not as thick and goes on very easily. I am happy with this purchase.

Great Sun Screen!
I live in the heat of Arizona where the sun is always shining. Sunscreen is a must. In this extreme sun, the type of sunscreen matters. You don't need a lot. It spreads evenly and easily. It doesn't feel greasy at all, and absorbs really fast. It seems that I get all day coverage.

Good SPF35
It is good so far. It doesn’t make my skin to oily. It is first to use this bland and I can say I like it very much so.

Lightweight, Non-irritating
This is an elegant sunscreen with a light non- greasy feel that did not irritate my sensitive skin and more importantly did not clog pores the way physical sunscreen ingredients often do. It absorbs easily into the skin.

The Jam!
This non-tinted version is great to keep on hand; I keep an extra in my car and golf bag in case I forget or need another layer later in the day. It’s very moisturizing, does not clog pores, and has never pilled or caused any issues under makeup. All around, the best sunscreen line I’ve found... price is in the middle-top range of what I’ve tried previously, and it’s worth it... especially for the natural sun blockers and coverage.
