Love!

I have been using SkinMedica's age defense spf 50 for a few years. I like the product but decided to try a less expensive alternative. Essential defense glides on and doesn’t leave any sort of residue. Easy to apply and absorbs well even when applied over serum and moisturizer. Not greasy.

Want to like this

I really wanted to like this sunscreen but it left a white cast on my face as well as a weird tacky feeling that did no favors for my acne prone skin. Glad I gave it a try though!

Good Sunscreen/Smells Odd

I use a different SkinMedica sunscreen, but thought I would try this one because it is less expensive. This sunscreen is light, goes on smooth, and is readily absorbed. There is no residue and works well. The only problem I had was with the scent. It smells slightly odd, almost rancid, but the expiration date is 12/2021, so I assume it is not rancid and that is the scent. For that reason, I gave it three stars instead of five. I did not see that any other reviewer had an issue with this. Perhaps, the scent was only this particular bottle. I do not know, but rather than purchase it again, I will continue to use SkinMedica's total defense and repair sunscreen.

SkinMedica everyday clear broad spectrum

Very light, non oily SPF 47. Perfect for my skin which can still be oily at 63.

Sun Protection

Skin Medica sun protection is just awesome. Goes on without whiteness, non-caked and absorbs into the skin without an oily residue. Recommend!

Not my all time favorite!

It’s pretty good for reducing oil in your face but I would recommend using the spf 30. The same brand because this one leaves you casket sharp ready, the white residue is heavy!

So Far So Good

This sunscreen has a nice texture, very light. I usually like a higher zinc oxide content than 12% however the lower zinc percentage allows for better texture under makeup. It is a small amount of product for the cost. The airless pump is a nice feature. Will update this review if I have any issues with it as I've only used it once. I buy tons of sunscreens so I am familiar with a good texture.

My favorite sunscreen!

This doesn't leave me greasy, or with a white cast, or break me out. The price isn't bad, considering that little goes a long way. It also seems to last all day without a reapplication.

My favorite sunscreen

This is a sunscreen that does NOT leave you white. This is the first all mineral sunscreen that I have found that doesn't leave you white. I pray they don't discontinue it. There is an odd smell when you put it on but it goes away once you rub it in. It's not an offensive smell, just odd...but I don't care, it is such a great sunscreen!

SPF of choice

There are a lot of SPFs on the market but this one is the best lotion I have tried. It isn’t heavy and doesn’t break me out. I use it as a primer for my powder and it works great. It’s also very well priced.

First time user of Skinmedica Broad Spectrum

I have been using Skinmedica tinted sunscreen for sensitive skin for 2 years and love it. I recently purchased the clear due to the l higher spf number and am very pleased with this one also. It’s not oily or too creamy and provides very good coverage. I will continue to use these products.

Good but prefer other from the same brand

This has high SPF which is great. However for my combination skin which tends to shine, I prefer the SPF 34 which, although not put forward specifically for my skin type, feels wonderful and sets to a real matte finish while hydrating any dry areas. Will stick to that one.

SkinMedica Essential Defense Everyday Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 47

I appreciate the high SPF and use this in place of or combined wth EltaMD UV Elements Broad-Spectrum SPF 44 when very little or no tint is desired.

SkinMedica Essential Defense Everyday Clear Broad Spectrum SPF 47

Another great SkinMedica product. Great to add to your morning routine. Gives you all day SPF coverage without looking shiny or oily. Feels silky and fresh. No better feeling than knowing you are protected from all the brutalities the sun can cause.
