SkinMedica’s Essential Defense Mineral Shield™ Broad Spectrum SPF 35 is hypoallergenic and scent-free, and its mildness makes it a great option for everyday use.

How Essential Defense Mineral Shield™ Broad Spectrum SPF 35 Works
To get the full effects of this sunscreen, use it 15 minutes before exposure to the damaging rays of the sun, and reapply it every two hours. Essential Defense Mineral Shield™ Broad Spectrum SPF 35 uses two natural active ingredients to prevent UV rays from penetrating your skin, giving you sun protection from both UVA and UVB rays.
- Titanium Dioxide rests on top of your skin and acts as a shield from the sun. It cannot seep into your body, so you have no need to fear any side effects.
- Zinc oxide is FDA-approved for use by infants who are only six months old, and it is very safe. Providing UVA- and UVB-blocking capabilities, it can also clear skin with acne or rosacea. Zinc can also tighten your skin by making your pores smaller, and it can absorb excess oil.
SkinMedica’s Essential Defense Mineral Shield™ Broad Spectrum SPF 35 not only protects against sun damage, but also provides anti-aging benefits. For more information about our products, or to schedule a free consultation with one of our skin care experts, call (480) 513-2888.
