Nice sunscreen.

This is a very nice product. It goes on shiny but absorbs into the skin after about 20 minutes, leaving a nice matte finish. I like that is has a high SPF level.

Best SPF

I have been using the tinted version for years but wanted to try this for the days I want to go more natural. Takes less rubbing-in than other white SPFs I’ve tried, it’s easy to wear under makeup too. Has a mild chemical smell but it’s neutral as far SPFs go and I don’t mind it

Dewy and a sunscreen too!

This is a great sunscreen and on top of the protection it provides it also makes your skin loo really dewy. lit’s wonderful. I first purchased this product from my dermatologist who recommended it. Now I ordered it from Lovely skin. I get a great product at a great price. I recommend this product highly.

Nice product, crummy dispenser

Epionce stopped offering their clear sunscreen, so I found this, and it’s nice. The Epionce tube allowed me to see how much was left. I hate these rigid pump containers because I have no idea how much is left or even in there to start with. I hope Epionce brings theirs back.

Nice texture

This is a nice texture. I only wish it was all physical because it does irritate my face so I have to use it on my body instead.

Great feel and perfect for skin that get oily

I have been using Image Skincare matte SPF for years, however they changed the formulation. I began my hunt for something comparable. This is a great alternative. My skin is combination, however gets oily on the forehead through the day. This has a great matte feel and doesn't breakout my skin. It does great putting makeup over top. The scent is odd.... which is the 4 stars. Once you get past the scent, it is worth it for overall skin feel and look.

good hybrid sunscreen

I like it , texture is great ,does not smell like sunscreen.Still on the hunt for the right one. I prefer an spf 50 or better not sure why skinmedica did not do it, that said 47 vs 50 is miniscule of course,may repurchase.

Good sun protection

This product starts out a little greasy on the face but after a couple of minutes it sinks in well. I use it daily after my morning cleansing, serums, and moisturizer. I just use a little translucent powder over the nose and chin which tend to remain shiny after product use. Coverage is good and I like the fact the product is clear and not white. Sun protection has been very good, have not gotten burnt on the face since using this product and also like SPF 47. I am on my third bottle and very pleased.

SKINMEDICA ESSENTIAL DEFENSE EVERYDAY SUNSCREEN

This a nice product with a slightly thick texture but goes on smoothly. A little bit goes a long way. I like that it is SPF 47. The pump top makes it easy to control how much product comes out.

Very light!

Good for a light sunscreen with no tint to it. Not noticeable and little to no odor!

Okay

I usually order the tinted sunscreen by the same brand and I accidentally selected this for the higher spf not carefully reading that it was regular sunscreen and not tinted. My eyes took a little sensitivity to it so that’s the only reason I’d give it 4 stars. No white cast and doesn’t leave my skin greasy and my skin tint applies smoothly over it!

Another favorite

Another great sunscreen from SkinMedica that works well even on my dry(ish) mature skin. Plays well with all types of foundation and leaves skin with a soft glow.
