Very nice sunscreen with SPF 35
This is a really great addition of a broad spectrum protection sunscreen. I use this on a day where I will have less some exposure given the level of protection

Only facial sunscreen I’ll use
I’ve been using this for at least 3 years. I’ve tried all kinds of mineral sunscreens that won’t cause irritation, clogged pores, super white cast, breakouts and dryness. I wish the spf was a little higher but it’s no big deal. I love this sunscreen because it doesn’t cause all the things I’ve listed. I have it on the automatic order system because I can’t be without it. And it’s cosmetically elegant and goes on wonderful. I pat it on my skin and it starts out fairly white but blends in. I always wear it with a moisturizer underneath because I have combo skin. It makes my skin look fresh and not greasy. I highly recommend this for a facial sunscreen.

nice SPF
This SPF lotion has been newly added to my skincare routine and I like that it's mineral and doesn't leave a white cast on my face. It absorbs nicely and doesn't get oily throughout the day. Works well under makeup as well!

Best SPF for face
I never liked to use an extra sunscreen on my face because it messed with my foundation. I figured the SPF in my foundation would be enough. I've learned that I need more protection, especially since I got a skin cancer on my face! I tried many other sunscreens, but none of them worked for me until I found SkinMedica Essential Defense Mineral Shield sunscreen. It easily absorbs and doesn't leave a white cast. It also does not interfere with my foundation. Win, win!

This sunscreen definitely leaves my skin white cast but feel hydrating as the same time, so I am kind of like it but nit so sure.

Favorite Sunscreen
Great everyday sunscreen! I have a tanned/bronzed skin color, it doesn't leave a white cast. I feel confident going out with it everyday. It's moisturizing and also has a semi-matte feel which makes you look refresh all day long. Overall it's an excellent mineral sunscreen for skin of color.

Good Sunscreen
The sunscreen goes on smoothly and I'm able to put my foundation on right away without any pilling or flaking. I'm skeptical of it only being SPF 35, but time out in the sun will tell.
