I've been using SkinMedica Essential Defense Mineral Shield Broad Spectrum Sunscreen for a couple years. I wear it most mornings and it provides enough sun protection for my everyday activities including walking and paddleboarding. (I also wear a hat.)

I spend a lot of time on my skin. I love to garden, and I live in the south where it can get really hot. I use SPF daily, and I really like the Skin Medica products I have tried. I use the retinol nightly as well, very pleased with the results.
