SkinMedica Total Defense + Repair Broad Spectrum Sunscreen

Protect and repair in a single sunscreen.

Total Defense + Repair is a superscreen: broad-spectrum SPF plus an antioxidant complex that defends against more than UV, including infrared heat and pollution. It guards against the damage that drives premature aging while you wear it, so daily sun protection becomes an anti-aging step too.

Why it is worth it
Sunscreen is the single most effective anti-aging product there is, and this one earns its place by adding antioxidant defense most sunscreens skip. One bottle covers months of daily use and protects everything else in your routine.

How it compares
For a sheer mineral finish, the Colorescience and SkinCeuticals physical sunscreens are options. Total Defense + Repair is the treatment-grade choice that pairs protection with antioxidant repair.

Best for: all skin types wanting daily protection that also fights aging.
Not ideal for: those who specifically want a tinted finish (see the tinted options).

How to use
Apply as the last step of your morning routine, after moisturizer. Reapply through the day with sun exposure.
