Reviews For Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Color Balm SPF 50 PA++++
Love this for cheek color
I’ve used tinted sunscreen instead of foundation for years now. Occasionally I use this brands Flex tinted sunscreen, other times I use another brand I love from this site. I have medium-light skin tone than tans easily in summer and love using this all year around as ‘blush’. Gorgeous color. It is stiff/dry but I have no issues blending on top of my dewy tinted moisturizer (or well moisturized skin and tinted sunscreen). I swipe over both apples then just use a finger to blend in. Gives a youthful glow.

Colorscience total protection color balm
This product is perfect for added protection anywhere you want to put it. Because it is like a cream, I let it warm up on my skin for a few minutes and then use a damp makeup sponge to blend it in. perfect!

Nice concept
It’s a nice concept to add color to a sun care product however the color rubs off or fades quickly. I’ll keep using the product but likely won’t purchase again.

Product is very stiff
Even for an AZ resident (it's summer now), the product really is stiff and challenging to apply to the lips. The color Blush is neutral and adds some warmth to my face. I will continue to buy this product because there are so few alternatives for a zinc based lip treatments.

Several functions in a single product.
I already have several colors, I use them as bronzer, blush, lipstick and even eye shadows. It does not irritate my sensitive skin and has spf. Multiple functions in one product.

Works like a charm
I have used the brand for about 6 months and added this product to my daily routine. A little goes a long way making the price point not as daunting. I use as blush, eye shadow and even lip tint, allowing my makeup routine to be only a few products!

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.

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....
