Reviews For Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Brush-On Shield SPF 50
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.

Great for on the go coverage. I use it on my face, chest, and hands. Lightweight, not greasy

Overall good option
Nice product, but I have very sensitive skin and this is yet another that still irritates. I think it would work well for those with less sensitive skin.

Undecided
I really want to love this but I’m worried it doesn’t work. It is the medium color, which is very fair in comparison to the one I purchased previously in bronze. I continuously tap and pray the product is dispensing. I use it as my daily touch up on top of my cream sunscreen. I love the portability and convenience.

Love the portability
This is a very nice mineral application that goes over makeup easily. I keep it in my car, where it doesn't melt like other sunscreens, and go over my face, neck and hands if I stop to go for a walk. I like to buff it in like my bare mineral makeup, and it provides a creamier glow. Otherwise, it could look dry. I do think it is overpriced, my only complaint.

Still considering this product.
I purchased two of these, the Glow and the Bronze. I get pretty tan in the summer and have used the Bronze one before. It's handy to put in your purse if you are going out and will need a touch up, without having to re-apply sunscreen over your makeup. My only issue is that I can't always tell if I am getting the product out of the container and on to my face. I can't see any difference at all with the "Glow" so very disappointed, but it is still sunscreen that is easy to use during the day.

Brush on sunscreen
Concept is great. I find the powder very fine; which I like. I use it as last step in makeup. Mainly on nose, forehead and side of cheeks where there is sun damage. I wear sunscreen, light make up and finish with this powder. I live in Florida, go for daily walks, eat breakfast outside across from the ocean, and then take a walk on the beach. It’s early in the season, I am not actively playing in the ocean, so I don’t know how it will hold up to that but I like it so far. Only complaint would be that I am never sure how much is actually being dispensed and how much coverage I am actually getting.

Nice product, problematic brush
I really like Colorescience Sunforgettable and used it for about 10 years, stopping ~2010 because of difficulty getting the brush to work properly putting out enough powder. It required repeated retractions of the brush, upside down tapping, and fanning the brush again when re-opened in order to use much of the time. Some brushes were excellent, some very far from it. So after a long period of time using EltaMD facial sunblock instead I thought I'd give Sunforgettable another try. Sadly, I'm finding the same problems with the brush which existed previously. I'll use it up but unless things change as more powder gets used up within the tube I won't purchase again. It's a shame they haven't worked on what most people experience as the primary problem with delivery.

Easy to use
It’s easy to carry and use outside. But it’s hard to see whether you applied it or not. Not sure whether it really can protect you from the sun.

Blending Finish
This non-cakey powder has a smooth overall finishing look, to soften and blend makeup. Top it off - added spf is a bonus. You need to care for and clean brush well to get the most of the product…it is definitely worth it.

Good color
I had to return first one as powder wouldn’t come out. The second one seems to be working well. And the coverage seems good. Would recommend.

Messier application than before
I love to keep this in my purse to touch myself up and my kids during the day, but this applicator has been much more unpredictable. It will send out big poofs of powder in different places. Anyone else having this issue?

Powder sunscreen
I like the idea of a powder with sunscreen. I still put lotion with sunscreen on my face before hand, so I’m not sure how well the powder is really working. I had a heck of a time getting the powder to release for the first time use. I watched the video and tapping the container on the table a few times is an understatement. I had to bang this thing on the table to the point where my table dented, at least 50 times before the powder would release. I still like this product because it takes the shine away from my face while I’m in the sun.
