Reviews For Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Brush-On Shield SPF 50
Discreet and portable for touch-up sun protection
I am just starting a skincare regimen that will make my skin extra sensitive to the sun. This product was recommended to me by my dermatologist, as an extra layer over my usual sunscreen. I apply it before leaving my office for my lunch break, for example. Compared with the mineral foundation powders that I'd been using, I like this much better. The coverage is much sheerer, it feels lighter on the face, and it has a higher SPF rating. Because it's sheerer, it's much more forgiving, color-wise (it's basically invisible). I have light-medium skin that veers more medium in summertime. I have the Medium color, and it works well for me. The attached brush makes it portable. It doesn't dispense too much at once, which I happen to like because it makes the application more fool-proof, less messy.

So easy to use!
Ok. So I had to watch the video to see how to get the powder out, but once I followed the instructions to remove the sleeve that surrounded the bristles it works like a charm. Everyone should wear sunscreen and Colorsescience makes it easy.

So convenient
This was the first time I’ve purchased a dry brush-on SPF like this. It’s easy to use and convenient for touch-ups throughout the day without interfering with makeup or other SPF/skin care. I am extremely fair skinned and the ‘Fair’ is perfect for me. It goes on easily and is virtually invisible. I think this is a great product to have in your bag for extra SPF protection as the day goes on because washing your face and reapplying SPF/makeup multiple times a day is absolutely unrealistic. It’s spill-proof too, and in my book, that is A+!! Oh, I almost forgot to mention I have very dry skin, and this isn’t drying or irritating at all.

Can't be beat
I saw this product at the dermatologist's office & was anxious to use it. What impressed me most was the high percentages of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide at 22.5% each. Since I'm a new user, I cannot attest to the brush clogging issue or the skin sensitivity of the brush. I normally use a 50 SPF foundation and believe I'll have enhanced sun protection with this product.

Great when used properly
I have used this in the past, and I was very frustrated when it never seemed to be dispensing any product. The level of powder seemed unchanged after using. I asked the salesperson at my dermatologist’s office what I could do, and she gave me some great advice. First, you need to turn the product upside down and hit it a few times to get the powder into the brush. Keep doing this and you should see the powder coming out of the brush soon. Then, apply in circular motion all over. My dermatologist recommended going over the areas several times to get a good coverage. Keep turning it over even when applying and checking that it’s still coming out by hitting the bottom of the bottle. Finally, and very important: keep the brush clean and dry! I used the wipes they sell and found that they work well. It’s important to clean the brush in an upright position so that the powder stays dry. When used in this way, this is one of the most convenient sunscreens, and it is effective as soon as it’s applied.

Daughter loves this!
At my daughter's request, I purchased this for a Christmas gift. She loves the product! She is a runner, and it's easy to apply, plus gives her sunscreen protection.

Super easy to use
Use this product every morning as a "finishing" powder over my makeup. Also brush it on over makeup frequently when outdoors. No problems with build up or makeup color distortion. Have used this product for over five years. TSA subjected my one quart zip lock bag when it contained this item to additional screening because it is larger than a lipstick tube. Oh well.

Excellent!
Finish your face with or without makeup, this powder helps oily skin looks matte, and act as a sunscreen at SPF 50. I've been using this product for almost a year and no sun burnt, no clogged pores. Very happy. Make sure you watch the video instruction, first time use might be awkward.

Great Sunscreen for Humidity
I play a lot of tennis in GA during the summer and this is the only sunscreen that will stay on my face in the heat and humidity. Highly recommend this product for all seasons, especially during the summer months.

Easiest sunblock to apply!
I have been using this product layering my sunscreen products for over a year now, first the lotion with sunscreen then the powder. Originally, I wanted this in clear, so the tint wouldn't compete with makeup. But, so far, using the light on my fair olive skin has been fine. Nice to be able to reapply also right before going back out in the sun. Use in place of setting powder too over makeup, so nice two for one product!

Convenient, good sunblock
I love this sunblock because it’s so convenient to carry in my purse and apply anytime to my face, neck and hands. I wasn’t sure how the color would work on my hands and neck or over my makeup, but the color is so subtle you can’t really see it. It blends in easily.

Best on the go sun protection
This product is wonderful. I keep it in my car and purse, so I can apply it if i find myself in a situation where I am going to be outdoors in the sun for a while. It goes over your makeup, clear and doesn’t mess it up. It also mattifies your skin. I’ve never gotten a sunburn when applying this product, and I have even used it on my kids when in a pinch.

I LOVE the convenience, and it WORKS!
I carry the Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Brush-On Shield SPF 50 in my purse and apply it throughout the day. This is the first time I have ever applied sunscreen every two hours because it is so convenient and takes only a minute. I not only reapply on my face but also quickly brush on my arms, hands and neck. Wonderful product, and it works!! I love it and will definitely reorder.

Can't live without it!
I have been using Colorscience Sunforgettable Brush on Shield SPF 50 for 3 years now. I live in Colorado where I am outside year round doing different activities from snowboarding and snowshoeing in winter to mountain biking, wake surfing and paddle boarding in summer. I have not had a single burn in the harsh sun out here since using this product and rely on it to keep my face and neck protected even when in water or sweating. I can't count the number of times I share it with others too!
