Favorite sunscreen and rec’d by dermatologist
I have been using this for years and I love it. It was first recommended to me by my dermatologist. I love the tint, it is natural—I have fair skin. Lightweight and doesn’t rub onto my clothes.

SkinMedica Essential Defense Mineral Shield tinted
I use every day instead of makeup. Goes on smoothly with the light coverage I was wanting. Just add a little blush & I’m done!

Replaced my foundation!
I used Essential Defense everyday instead of foundation. Great light coverage and SPF. I never go a day without it. One of my favorite SkinMedica products.

Only sunscreen I will use on my face
I have been using this sunscreen for more than 6 years and absolutely love it. Not only does it not break out my very sensitive fair skin, but it gives me the perfect hint of color. I don't use foundation anymore and just apply this over my concealer, add a 16 hour lip color and go.

Perfect for my combo Asian beige skin
The tint works for my skin tone perfectly. The sunscreen is not greasy and doesn't leave a cast. I have never had sunburn with this product when used properly, i.e. re-apply when I stay out for long hours.

My favorite sunscreen
I have been using this for several years now. I love the tinted formula. It never feels oily and the tint evens out my complexion. I use this in place of foundation for daytime and just add a little bronzer.

Perfect face protection for me.
I have used this for several years. It has protected me from the sun because of the ingredients. I am very sensitive to SPF ingredients, especially around the eyes, so just having the two ingredients of titanium dioxide, and zinc oxide have help with this sensitivity. Also the tint has blended with my skin tone.

Perfect Tinted SPF
I love this tinted sunscreen. It is light, does not have an orange tint, and goes on smoothly over makeup or under. I keep an extra in my purse at all times for touchups.

SkinMedica tinted foundation
I have searched for years for a product like this! This one checks all the boxes!! High quality foundation, little to no scent, luminous finish, added bonus of SPF 32. This one is a keeper!!

Favorite sunscreen
I'm so happy to have finally found a sunscreen that I can wear daily, either alone or under my makeup. It blends nicely and never feels greasy. Love this product.

Good base layer
I have used SkinMedica Essential Defense Mineral Shield —tinted for years. It is a nice thin layer of foundation. If going out I will usually put my regular foundation on over the SkinMedica. Regular foundation goes on smoothly and doesn’t look thick. Many days I will just use the SkinMedica and a bit of blush and feel it covers most of my flaws. I think it helps keep my skin tone basically even. I like the product.

Favorite sunscreen ever! (and I've tried at least 10 different sunscreens)
This sunscreen is a godsend. Not only is it PA++++ but it is also beautiful to wear. I've tried 3 different tinted sunscreens from a different brand and all of them are tinted too warm and they make you look orange or like you had a bad spray tan. THIS SUNSCREEN DOES NOT! It's not PERFECT (I still get a slight orange tint around my hairline) but it is NEARLY perfect and I will take it. And the tint isn't too bad even if you use the full quarter teaspoon. I will say the tint gets a little too intense if you reapply so I guess that's the only downside of this sunscreen but there will never be a perfect tinted sunscreen. The texture is also so light and silky and it's not too drying or too oily it just looks like beautiful glowing skin. I think I've finally found my holy grail sunscreen after months of searching :')

Excellent face sunscreen
Living in south Florida is brutal on skin. Even though I have a darker Mediterranean complexion, I have facial skin cancer. This product doesn’t cause clogged pores. I apply every morning to face neck and décolleté. Love it!

SkinMedica Essential Defense Mineral Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 32 Tinted
Absolutely love this sunscreen!! There is no white cast at all and blends well with my foundation if I feel the need for more color. I use it on my neck and décolletage every day as well. It’s great for sensitive skin, which is a plus and does not clog my pores!! Been using it for years and will continue to do so!!

My SPF of choice for for 2 years
I’ve been using this for two years and it’s my favorite face SPF ever. The tint is so nice, I rarely wear an additional foundation. On its own its great for every day coverage. If I’m spending a lot of time outside I usually reapply it in the afternoon.
