Reviews For Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Color Balm SPF 50 PA++++
Filtered by: Clear Filters
Nice as blush and lip color
I bought this during the sale on a whim in Violet Sky, and I am happy with this. I don't rely on it as sun protection on my checks since I'd have to apply way too much, but on my lips it worked great over a lip balm with spf. I was hoping the the color would be more of a cool toned purply-pink as it appears in the tube and on my arm, but it appears more neutral rosy on my cheeks (I have fair, cool olive skin). It is still very flattering and goes with a lot. It does appear more lilac on my lips so your undertones will affect the the color. It does fade over the day, but not in a patchy way. I apply with a brush, swiping across the top on the stick and dabbing it on my cheeks.

Sunburn in the area of the blush, but it's nice as a blush
I really wish this provided sun protection. I actually use Colorscience tinted sunscreen all over my face (like a foundation) then use the Colorscience Sunforgettable Balm as a blush. What I found is that I get sunburned just where the blush is. It's happened now a couple of times. My guess is that it rubs off the sunscreen beneath it (when you rub to blend the blush) and that the blush color after blending is too thin to actually protect.

Lip Sunscreen
Another win for Colorescience! My favorite thing about this product is the versatility. I love the pop of color it adds to my cheeks, eyelids, and lips!

Nice but..
These blushes are great however I do think they are a bit on the dryer side and sometimes this makes blending them in a little more challenging. But overall, nice to use makeup with spf in it for that extra little bit of protection.

Na
This was greasy and didn’t dry down at all on me. The shade I got didn’t really show up on me either and I have light skin. Not for me unfortunately.

Outstanding color balms & I'm picky
I have these in 3 colors. My skin is fair-light with neutral undertone. I haven't found these color balms to be difficult to work with in the least as other reviewer's stated, and I have dry, mature skin & live in low humidity high desert. I use these balms after my Flex sunscreen. Apply with fingers or a brush in a stippling fashion. The bronze, pink sky, golden hour are beautiful, universal shades. Bronze has a bit of shimmer but not glitter & looks beautiful on eyes, too. I think these shades could work well on all skin tones. The more SPF you wear daily now = the less wrinkles in 10-15 years. That's motivation enough for me!

Beautiful
This sunscreen stick is beautiful and creamy! Advice is to rub with finger to warm up then swip across cheek bone then blend with blush brush!!

Great in theory
I wanted to love this product. I have tried two colors now over time, and I was not able to make either of them work for me. This time, seeing some new options, I tried Violet Haze, which looks like it should be perfect for me -- a cool plum color. It does look beautiful in the tube. But when applied to my cool-toned skin and lips, it is warm and orange-toned and looks quite off. It really looks bad on me, lol. Oh well.

What's not to love
I'm in love with the Colorescience color balm sticks! It is easiest to apply with a brush and blends well. I love knowing my cheeks and lips have added protection, especially since melasma most often occurs around the cheek area!

Fast Shipping & Nice blush
The item arrived quickly. I tried several other Colorscience color balms and this one worked the best on my skin tone as a blush. The color wears well through the day and is closest o my natural pinky color. I use my fingers to apply.

Dry + Awkward Application
This does not work as either a lip balm or cheek color. The formula is too drying for lips. And the large, oblong tube is too awkwardly shaped for lip application or blush application. Definitely not worth $39. Back to my other lip balm....

On the fence..
I can only compare this to another SPF lip balm from another brand, and I’d say I prefer this brand over the other.. I am realizing it’s not easy formulating a lip balm w SPF in an elegant way. They tend to be drying so I layer it w a lightweight lip balm underneath. I love the color as it’s pretty pigmented. Definitely not a “balm” formula, more like a lipstick

Want to love it but……
The tube does not work. I can roll the product up to apply it, but it won’t roll back down unless I use my finger and press it back into the tube. I contacted customer service. They said they never had this issue, and asked for a video. I sent it, and they agreed to send a new one after returning the old tube. The new tube is the same way! Ugh. I really like the color, but can’t see paying for it again (especially if it isn’t on sale) if I have to push it back into the tube every time.

My new favorite blush
I ordered this in the color "blush". I tap it on my cheeks after foundation and it looks like a barely there sun kissed look. I love it. And anything with SPF to help protect my cheeks that are prone to melasma is a bonus!!

Love
I use this as both my blush and lip color (under a gloss for hydration). I love that my makeup is just an added layer of sunscreen!
