Colorscience Brush - on Shield SPF 50
I find this brush on sunscreen to be amazing. It is easy and convenient to use on the go when on vacation, hiking or daily touch ups for sun protection. I have even used it as a finishing powder. I took one star off because it was difficult to prime in the beginning and if you do not use it again for awhile you I had to go through the process again. It takes several HARD FAST TAPS to get it started then you are good to go. I would buy it again.

Convenient for everyday travel
I purchased this as the companion to the cream application since SPF needs to be reapplied every hour or two. If I am out of the house, running errands, hiking, etc. it is much more convenient to pop this out of my bag or pack and apply as opposed to using dirty hands to apply additional cream. The fair color is quite translucent so it's hard to tell if it is on if I am only using it on my clean, bare skin. I have to press along the bristles to see if there is powder in the brush so that in itself is a bit of waste.

Hard to use
Sometimes i do not know if I used it or not, the powder not visible and you need to clean the brush with makeup removal wipes, otherwise not possible

Love the brand
And this product is no exception. Have used it several times. Very convenient. Color blends very well. Only concern is with the way it dispenses (sometimes is hard to control) but, otherwise, fantastic.

Great sunscreen without having shinny skin.
I have oily skin and most liquid sunscreens get my fave greasy. Its powder form and small size is great for every day use.

Invisible but works
I ordered the “Glow” shade and didn’t notice much of a difference when applying it at first. But I went to the beach and sprayed SPF 30 all over my face and body, my whole body ended up burned except my face. The only difference? I had used the Glow brush-on from Colorescience on my face. Normally my face burns faster than the rest of me, so I know this stuff really works. I’m impressed! I’ll probably try the “Tan” shade next time.

First Time Trying This Powder
I’m not using this as my primary sunscreen but as a reapplication layer in the afternoon. The powder is light and doesn’t seem to cake. I haven’t had problems with the product coming on to the brush but it does take many taps. Haven’t gotten sunburned, but I’m not in the direct sun.

Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Brush-On Shield SPF 50 - BRONZE
This product is nice, but not the best I've used. In my opinion, the dispenser doesn't apply an ample amount of product, even if you use it exactly according to instructions. Also, it's a matte finish; if you're looking for something with a little sparkle, this isn't what you're looking for. It definitely prevents sunburn, but I prefer a less matte finish. The 4 stars is due to the dispensing mechanism.

Portable sunscreen
Love the portability and lightweight powder. However, it is a little pricey.

Apply Every Two Hours Over Makeup!
What I love about this product is that it can be applied several times a day over make-up, so you can comply with applying sunscreen every two hours. I took off a star because it is hard to gauge how much product actually comes out on the brush. I keep one in my purse always.

Easy take along sunscreen
Easy take along sun protection. I am tapping it as suggested to get powder onto the brush. It is a light application, so I wonder if I am getting enough product to have the full amount of sun protection.

Love this!
I love this powder as a matifying product to use on top of my sunscreen. Even better that it's a sunscreen as well. It's just so expensive. Hence the minus one star.

Easy to apply but applicator gets clogged
I really love the ease of application with this product, but i consistently feel like the applicator brush gets clogged and the product stops coming out. As recommended in the packing I have washed the application tip and let it fully dry and that did not seem to help. Great idea but when I apply over makeup or liquid sunscreen it just clogs.

Very convenient
Great when you can’t/don’t want to reapply liquid sunscreen. I took off one star, because I can’t always tell if the powder is coming out.

Love this product!
My dermatologist recommended I buy this product to safe guard my skin from cancer I’ve already had one facial MOHs and don’t want another! It easy to use several times a day - I keep it in my purse so I frequently reapply. It’s great!!

A staple for me
I have been using this sunscreen powder for years. I hate reapplying lotion sunscreen over my makeup and this is a great solution. I keep one of these in my car and apply to my face, neck, chest, and back of my hands whenever I need it (which is all the time). It lasts quite awhile. My only gripe is that it can be messy with the dispenser. It usually takes a few taps to get it going when it’s new, but with the most recent one I purchased, this was not the case. Two taps and there was powder stuck up inside the cap a mess all over. I hate wasting expensive products. I wish there was a better way… like a pressed powder and a brush.

Good for reapplication
This is great to reapply sunscreen while you’re out and about. I just wish the brush was removable so I could clean it properly.

Great ease
Love the concept and the small size to slip into a pocket or small purse. However, I would love to have a refill option vs buying the product with the dispense mechanism each time.
