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!

Mix feelings
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.

Had to return it - made my skin break out in red bumps
I'm not sure what is in this product that irritated my skin but I had to send it back. I do have really sensitive skin, so if you don't, you may love this. It just didn't work for me. One use and my face was red and bumpy. I appreciate being able to return it. PCA weightless SPF works better for me.

Favorite sunscreen
This is the best everyday mineral sunscreen I've found. It looks great on its own or under makeup. I also find that it works very well as a moisturizer for my oily skin. It's just the right consistency. Another plus is that it only has a very faint, non-offensive fragrance. I'd like to wear something with a slightly higher SPF, but I stick with this one because everything else about it is so great!!

Love it
I must admit, I love my Elta MD sunscreen, BUT, I also love Skinmedica. So I wanted to try this. Especially because of the green tea extract for irritation and discoloration and the caffeine for puffiness.

Favorite Sunscreen
I took me a long time to find a great mineral sunscreen. Most of the sunscreens I had tried before were chalky and left a white cast. This one goes on my skin so smoothly, which makes blending it in super easy. I wear this everyday! It also has worked really well under my makeup.
