Reviews For Colorescience Sunforgettable® Total Protection™ Face Shield Flex SPF 50
Nice
I like this sunscreen. It has good coverage and a nice glow. I would say that the medium ran a bit dark and warm for my neutral olive skin.

It takes time to apply
I have dry skin so this product doesn’t go very smooth on my skin and the texture is quite thick that it takes time to apply.

Not for dehydrated skin
I wanted to love this. But with my dehydrated skin from Tret this is not for me. It soaks into my skin and it emphasizes my wrinkles and I look older. For normal/combo/oily this is a go to. This can replace your foundation. I hate that it doesn‘t work for me most of the time. Maybe in summer. The color medium is just fine. You have to blend this product really good into the face. The only downside is, my dark eyebrows are getting all smudged. I don‘t know how to put this on without getting it into my eyebrows.

More shades please!
I’m happy with this sunscreen but not in love with it. I would give it 5 stars if there was a light shade I purchased fair and the fair is to light and the medium seemed to dark for my completion also a bit too glowy for my oily skin.

I loved it
I wish it was bigger. Because it is very small for its price. I like it, it leaves a nice color on the skin. I recommend it, easy to put on.

I like it but…
I expected to love this product because I am obsessed with the normal color science glow face sunscreen but this doesn’t seem to have as much coverage and it leaves my skin flakey and dry which doesn’t happen with the other. I am hoping once the weather warms up and my skin isn’t so dry to begin with it will be better though.

Full coverage SPF
This is a really nice SPF that I consider more “full coverage”. I can wear this and not use foundation but I feel it’s a bit heavy to put this on with foundation or a tinted moisturizer or to keep applying during the day! I’m glad I have it and will use it but it’s not a light or easy glide type spf and I’m also not so sure if this will be too much in the humid summer weather. Perfect for my midwestern winters!

It's OK
I really wanted to love this Sunblock after reading all the reviews.. I bought it because I wanted a matte daily SPF, but it is pretty shiny and I'm not even super greasy. It didn't give any coverage and the color was VERY light (I bought the FAIR) For the price, I expected to find my holy grail daily SPF.. probably wouldn't purchase again..

Flex medium tint
This is a really good sunscreen with tint. I am light to medium yellow toned and ordered the medium. The medium is a little too dark at this time, but I am able to make it work by bringing it down my neck and wearing a lighter powder on top. It gives light medium coverage so you can skip foundation.

Best tinted SPF so far
First let me preface by saying my skin is light olive with rosacea. Most tinted SPF's are too peachy/orangey for me. I got this in Medium and it goes on about 1-2 shades darker than my skin but doesn't look orange. I wait about 20 minutes before I put on my powder foundation. At that time, because of my red cheeks, and it being a little dark on me, I apply my powder foundation only on my cheeks and nose, and use a little setting powder everywhere else. I would say the coverage of this sunscreen is anywhere between light and medium with a second coat. I am on my second bottle and will continue to use.

I love the texture.
I love the texture of this sunscreen - less shiny than the normal FACE SHIELD. However, the shade I bought is too light for me - I totally didn't expect that - and I am sure the next shade would be too dark. Really hard to determine your shade online and this is not a cheap product.

Good product
Very nice formulation for normal to dry skin. Gives a slight glow. The lightest shade is quite light. Best for very fair skin. I wish I had ordered the second to lightest. Gives a slight blur to imperfections. I would describe my skin as light with pink undertones.

Love the protection this offers
I love that this is a physical sunscreen, and the tint it provides is lovely. It does transfer on clothes like makeup, so that is one thing to be mindful of if purchasing. But it is a great product, and would definitely purchase again!

Foundation with high spf
One of my favorite sunscreen purchases recently! It does what it claims to do and gives, beside sun protection, a nice full face coverage which doesn't look to heavy. You don't have to wear any foundation with this. It does have skin tone adapting abilities which I still find mind-blowing, but it's slightly to dark for my skin tone (been using 'tan') but nothing a good concealer couldn't fix and fortunately, there is also no white cast. It does leave a glowy finish, so maybe be careful if you have oily skin or are looking for a more matte velvety finish.

Like it but a little pricy
It's a good sunscreen with high protection from the sun and also blue light. It also has nice coverage though it could make you look a little pale. It's expensive for the amount.

Winner
This sunscreen is a win for my sensitive rosacea skin. This shade was just a little too dark but I just mix it with a tiny bit of another sunscreen I have that’s a lighter shade and it works great!

Face Shield Flex
I love the feel of this sunscreen. It is not matte but it's not as oily as the original Sunforgettable and gives a sheer to light coverage. The reason I gave 4 stars instead stead of 5 is that the color is too light for my skin and doesn't change color much at all. The recommendation is that if you are between shades, go with the lighter shade. This did not work for me. I add a little liquid bronzer to make it work for me. Next time I will order the darker shade.

Good sunscreen
I do quite like this sunscreen. The formula and the way it melts into your skin is lovely, and you know that it isn't going to slid around and compromise protection. My one complaint is that it doesn't really smooth pores, and it sort of makes any uneven texture even worse. I am dry right now from using tretinoin (retinol), and it make my skin look worse. If you have smooth skin you likely won't have any issues. I will likely just continue purchasing the regular total protection face shield and adding color correction on top on days I want coverage.
