Very comfortable mineral sunscreen
I have come back to this mineral sunscreen because it feels good going on and is moisturizing. I don't find it to leave a tacky feel and it works well under makeup. I have light to medium skin color, depending on the time of year and there is no white cast after it dries down. SPF could be higher but I've noticed my skin feels softer when I use this sunscreen.

Sunscreen for your face and neck
A few months ago I needed an untinted facial suncreen and tried SkinMedica Essential Defense Mineral Shield. I have been using the tinted version of this sunscreen for a couple of years and was pleased an un-tinted version is available. Most days I use the tinted version on my face and this version on my neck. When I am wearing a hat, walking, or paddleboarding, I use this product on my face and neck as it doesn't leave a residue on the brim of my hat. My face and neck are sensitive and especially sensitive to sunscreens. This sunscreen doesn't irritate my skin, even when I am physically active and sweating. This sunscreen goes on well and doesn't leave a white sheen that some Zinc Oxide sunscreens have. The texture is silky. I have repurchased and will continue to do so.

Sunscreen with benefit!
This is the first time using this sunscreen. It glides on so smoothly and absorbs quickly. I love that it is a serum as well and will hidrate my mature skin.

Skinmedica essential Defense
I’ve been using this sunblock for years and it’s the only one is not oily for my face. It’s the best.

Love !!
I absolutely love the sunscreen, works very well for my mature skin. I use two pumps and work it good into my hands, and the whitish cast almost turns clear, it's an absolute must.

Thanks for recommendation
Joey recommended this product during a facial. She gave me a sample and I loved it, so ordered the product. Haven’t always used a sunscreen, but now am a believer.

Amazing sunscreen
I've been using this for several months and it doesn't leave a white cast or make my skincare pill. I switched to a different sunscreen that pilled and ruined my makeup. I am repurchasing and will never switch again!

Love this sunscreen
I have tried many sunscreens. I really like the way this goes on without a white cast and is light on the skin. I would recommend this sunscreen.

Great Product
Bought this for my husband as I've been trying to get him to use sunscreen for yrs now. He likes this product b/c it is dry, doesn't make his skin shiny & doesn't leave a white cast. He did say it was a little difficult to rub in so I suggested he warm the product between his fingers before applying & I believe that made a difference

Great for sensitive skin
Chemical sunscreens give me hives so I've tried a lot of the mineral sunscreens, this one works for my sensitive skin! It is a little oiler / more hydrating than some others since mineral sunscreens tend to be drying by the end of the day. I tend to mix a few together to get the right skin tone. I will be using this more when I'm outside this summer.

Best protection from the sun!
Love this SPF cream and it doesn’t leave your skin greasy or with a white film. Goes on smooth and works great after serum but before makeup. Highly recommend.

Easiest to use
I really need to use sunscreen, but I hate all of them either burn my eyes or hard to apply. This one seems to work the best and I actually don’t mind using it at all.
