I had not used this product before. Although, I use SkinMedica products. I really like this product even though it's a sunscreen it doesn't go on thick and melts into your skin. I haven't used it long enough to give it a 5 star rating.

I'm having a hard time deciding whether I like this or not. It feels nice, but it almost starts to dry before I'm done spreading it on, which is a bit unusual. That said, it leaves no real white cast and no shine on my skin, which is so nice. I have not worn it under makeup, so I can't speak for that.

Love
I really wanted to NOT love this because it's not cheap, but so far it is pretty great--I have medium brown combination acne-prone skin and so far I haven't had any irritation from it. It goes on without a caste, the tinting blends in, the texture is nice, goes really nicely over other serums and moisturizer, and leaves a soft, smooth fairly matte finish. Ever so slightly blurring of imperfections, which is fine, because I don't like or wear foundation and this doesn't function like that. The color does transfer though, so I would not wear this with a white or light colored jacket or scarf. It isn't particularly hydrating, so I can't speak to how this will do in the winter when my skin is dry, but on the flip side will probably be even more super in hotter weather. Also wish it were a higher SPF... Overall would recommend it!

I was introduced to this product by a good friend and I am so thankful for the advice on using this sunscreen. I love it and it goes on smoothly.

I have only used this for a few days and still not sure how I feel about it. In all fairness, I can't really give a true review as I just had a laser treatment this week, so skin is like sandpaper at this point. The consistency seems a little thick & not easy to apply.. it does seem to absorb quickly, which is a plus. I am going to continue to use it & see how it does after my face has healed.

Not to thick…not too thin
This product is the perfect texture and does not leave your face shiny or greasy. My only complaint and reason for not giving it a 5 star rating is that if you have try skin it really has no moisturizing qualities, at least for me. So in the cold dry months I tend to switch to another product.

Good sunscreen
Finally a sunscreen that's not white, actually works, is lightweight and doesn’t cause acne.

Good product
It makes my skin a little bit oily depending on weather condition or humidity, but overall, it is a good product. What I like about this sunscreen is that it comes with antioxidants. I will buy again.

Appears to be the product I was searching for
Have only used it once, but used the sample tube prior to purchasing the full tube. Previous sunscreens that claimed to also repair sun damaged skin left a white pasty appearance on the skin (face). The SkinMedica product does not. It is easy to apply, feels less greasy & is clear. It is expensive, but if it works well, will be worth it.

Great!
Really nice product but a bit too moisturizing for my super oily skin. Great texture!

I really like it!
I just started using SkinMedica's Total Defense and Repair SPF 34 Untinted this Spring. I received it as a sample size and tried it and I liked it. It doesn't sting or burn when I put it around my eye area. It also doesn't give me that pasty white look you get from some sunscreens. It absorbs easily into my skin. I don't bake in the sun like I used to in my teen years, but I apply it every morning before I go out into the garden. I only wish they had made it years ago.

my opinion.
Good skin protection but difficult to use under makeup. I use it on my no makeup days.

SkinMedica Total Defense + Repair SPF 34 - Untinted
I absolutely love the SkinMedica line, especially the high SPF to wear under foundation. I wear the tinted version almost daily, couldn’t live without it!

Great sunscreen
This is one of the best sunscreens I've used. It's especially good in the summer hot weather, as it provides more of a matte finish rather than the shiny appearances of most sunscreens. It's good under makeup. I've found, though, that for our cold, dry winters, I need a little more moisture but always return to it during the summer season.

Great, Moisturizing Sunscreen
Very moisturizing, feels good on the skin, no unpleasant odor. Love that it has antioxidants and helps with reversing sun damage and fine lines. However, I do wish the price were a little lower. I think it's a good product, but not sure I'd price it quite so highly.

SkinMedica Total Defense and Repair SPF34
Actually, I ordered the wrong product. I thought I had ordered SkinMedica Total Defense and Repair SPF 50-water resistant (80) minutes which I have been using for the last 3-4 months and really love. This product, SkinMedica Total Defense and Repair SPF 34, is not as thick and is more like a lotion. I will have to save it for the winter months when I don't need the higher SPF and don't need my sunscreen to be water(sweat) resistant.

Great moisturizer
I used to use the ultimate moisturizer and this product was recommended instead by my aesthetician. I like the texture better - lighter.
