Reviews For Colorescience Total Protection™ No-Show™ Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
Very nice mineral sunscreen. Too expensive for what you recieve.
I really enjoy trying new sunscreens. In fact, I purchased this one because of a small sample I received in the mail. I don't generally like all mineral sunscreens due to the white cast and they tend to dry out my skin. This one did neither. In fact, it went on rather greasy and stayed that way for about 30 minutes. The initial application was also a bit white but once it had a chance to dry down, it was excellent. I detected no discernible scent at all and did not dry out my skin. I took off one star because it's way too expensive (even with a coupon) for the amount that you receive.

Zero white cast
I recently received this product from LovelySkin as a sample. I was extremely skeptical about the mineral not leaving a white cast and that it would feel very heavy on my face. It however dries down very well without any white cast and feels quite lightweight. I like it so much that I ordered the largest full size. I also think it highlights my glowing skin and it will be the perfect product for me for when I don’t want to wear any products that have a tint.

Colorescience Total Protection No-Show Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
I think this is a wonderful product. I did not experience any white on my face or neck and no burning of my eyes. I followed with my colorescience 50 SPF foundation. The combo works well and I will continue to purchase the products.

Product as Advertised
This sunscreen is as excellent as the reviews say and I will be purchasing again. It goes on smooth and light and yet is adequate for sun protection. I wear this product daily on my neck and chest as well as the Colorscience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Flex SPF 50 with tint on my face. I highly recommend both of these Colorscience products!

Colorscience No Show
This is amazing. Absolutely disappears on my skin. Even better than no white cast for me is that it feels super light on the skin but has amazing hydration.

Every day
This is very impressive sunscreen. It’s easy to blend in. No white cast. It is slightly greasy at first but it’s very comfortable to wear. I apply this every two hours while I’m at work. It doesn’t take long to rub in. This is my go to sunscreen!

Amazing sunscreen
I love this! It goes on smoothly and it does not pill up over my other products. It feels light and the white cast associated with zinc sunscreen,I feel, is minimal to none. I do tend to have drier skin so it’s perfect for me. It leaves my skin feeling hydrated but not oily. I’ve tried multiple others, but this is my new favorite.

Good but not great sunscreen
Nice, moisturizing formula. Spreads easily and wears nicely under makeup. No fragrance and no irritation, did not cause any rosacea flare. There is however, a slight whitish cast on my med/tan skin. Can cover with makeup, however.

Sheer mineral sunscreen
I tested this on a recent trip to Mexico. I always wear a hat and sit in the shade, so little time was spent in direct sun. The pluses: my sensitive skin did not react, the finish was sheer, and I did not burn. The minuses: the finish is not really mat, and I missed the tint that blurs the finish on my other favorite high end product. Definitely a good product but perhaps not my favorite. I do recommend it.

Love this stuff!
Colorescience No-Show Mineral Sunscreen is a very thin liquid. It comes out white and completely disappears on my skin (light tone) without a ton of effort working into the skin. I don't like that it initially looks shiny but at least on my aged skin the shine disappears within a few minutes. I don't use foundation of any sort - put on my face serum, H.A. and moisturizer and use this as the last step. For me the only downfall is needing to wait at each step for products to really sink in. I've never liked sunblock on my face but this one is tolerable. It's great for the backs of my hands too.

No Cast!
This is the best non-tinted mineral sunscreen I've ever used. And I've tried A LOT. It's great for times when I don't want the coverage of a tinted mineral sunscreen and just want to throw on something quick and easy. It's hydrating without being at all greasy and leaves my skin feeling healthy, dewy, and glowing. With no cast! The only one I'm using from now on!

Perfect mineral SPF!
I love Colorescience and use quite a few of their SPF products. I was so happy to learn they came out with a 50 SPF, no-show. I use it daily on my neck and décolletage and it doesn’t disappoint! It feels lovely on top of my moisturizer and provides a nice dewy glow without shine.

Love it
I love this sunscreen for several reasons. One, it is mineral, so I don’t have to wait the standard ~30 minutes for a chemical sunscreen. Two, it really DOES disappear into the skin after application, even on a darker skin tone (!). Three, it has a little dewy finish, but not excessively shiny. One tip, make sure you properly moisturize beforehand.

Not No-Show
Sunscreen went on smoothly but definitely a white cast which is reason for 3 stars.

Best sub for my beloved discontinued SPF50 so far -- hydrating and no-show
[For reference, sensitive skin with light tone.] My longtime, "cosmetically elegant" SPF50 is out of production aside from a tinted version that doesn't work for me. I've tried a few other top-rated LS brands over the last couple of years and have found them too drying, too white-cast even on my light skintone, or both. This is the first real contender. Plays well with my moisturizer and sheer foundation and feels great on my dry skin. Rec reading other reviews as I did to see the common themes for likes / dislikes. I was used to a creamy consistency with my old fav, so have to pay attention squeezing this out as yes -- it's very liquidy / more like a serum. Also a little hard to judge how much remains in bottle aka how many days of use per bottle I'll get / cost per day. But as of this review, will be repurchasing.

Really is no show
I got this for my neck because I don’t like the way the tinted one can show up on collars. It really is no show! I prefer the pink tint one to even skin tones on my face. However, I have been just using this one on both face and neck many days when I am working from home and it is great.

Ok
Better on body, doesn't leave white cast. However, it left my face looking shiny and oily. On body it goes on easily because it is liquid.

Works Great
I love this sunscreen, it gives a nice glow without being shiny and it doesn't settle in my pores like other Sunscreens I have tried. Highly recommend!
