Reviews For Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Color Balm SPF 50 PA++++
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.

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

Berry
This takes some getting used to if you usually wear powder blush and the consistency is more firm than other cream or stick blushes I’ve used, so application is a little tricky. I find using a fingertip and starting light works best. it’s nice to have makeup with spf but I wish it was more spreadable.

It has sparkles in it!
I am not sure if I am being fair with my 3 star rating. I like the subtle color this gives my cheeks- like I've had a bit of sun. BUT- it has sparkles in it so in some lights you can see what looks like glitter. That's fine for a party or whatever, but not to wear to work. Also, I tried it on my lips, as recommended, and it really chapped them- I think it is the sunscreen, which I am sensitive to. I am having a hard time deciding if I like this product, I do like the shade but I don't think I can use it on a daily basis because it would not be appropriate for my workplace.

I would go with the darker color next time. Doesn’t go on very smoothly but I like the spf 50 for my lips

Pretty Color
This balm has a pretty color. It was not moisturizing enough for me to buy again to use on lips but it has a nice color and can be used on the cheeks. But the purpose is limited as you would only then have have spf where you apply. You get a lot for the size.

Ok product but not special
The product seems fine but I must say I am not clear why we need a sun protective blush on top of sunscreen. I guess you can use it on your lips but I use spf 30 lip balm. I guess for people who don't wear any sunscreen or makeup, it might give a little sun protective local color. But I can't really understand the need for the product. The product itself was fine, color a bit bright but good for sensitive skin--no reactions.

A nice color but…
I like the color berry but it’s drying to my skin or my lips. I won’t buy this product anytime soon.

Dries out too quickly
When I first received this, it went on smoothly and had a nice texture. The lid was always on tightly, but within a few uses it started to dry out. Also, I had thought the blush color would be a pinkish shade. It’s a peach with some rose gold shimmer. It was much warmer than I had hoped it would be.

I love Colorescience but....
I have many Colorescience products and have always loved them all! Sadly, this one is my least favorite. I thought it would be creamier and easier to apply. Instead it's a bit "hard", doesn't glide on as I hoped. Also, I am not fond of the color. It may be okay for some complexions but it is too orange for mine. I gave it 3 stars because some people might like it! Just not what I expected.

Not my favorite
I use the Color Science Total Eye and Face Shield 50 daily. I thought I would add this to the mix. I like the color but I never tried it on my cheeks I was using it on my lips. I am sure it protects it just isn’t the same as lipstick. The balm is a little harder than lipstick. I don’t think I would buy again. I may try it on my cheeks vs using blush. Many of my Dermatologists carry this brand and with LovelySkin’s sales I can’t buy anywhere else. I’m a happy customer!!

Love the color
Beautiful rosy blush color and good sunscreen. However it is very dry and needs to be applied over well moisturized skin. Probably won’t purchase again.

Very nice but not a color match for me
This is a very nice balm, I liked the dual usage but the color was not a match for my skin tone. I have olive skin tone and it was way too light.

It's okay
The color is okay, it does liven the cheeks. Formula is on the dry side and does tug the skin. Didn't care for it on the lips because of the dryness.
