Good coverage
A little too much coverage for my taste, looks like foundation...but otherwise no complaints

I'm not sure what to think
This may be a little too foundation-like for me, I guess I prefer more sheer options. This one seems to settle into my pores and that will not work during summer. I'll give it a couple more tris, maybe reduce the overall amount applied? I may end up returning.

Too fair
This is a good high protection sunscreen but the shade fair was just too light. The next shade up was too dark/muddy on me. If they came out with a shade in between the two I’d try it again. It is a little greasy and gets worse throughout the day so I wouldn’t recommend it for oily skin people.

Nice texture but transfers a lot
The overall texture was nice, but I ended up returning it because it transferred a lot. Left some white cast but nothing that couldn’t be remediated with some setting powder.

Colorscience Flex sunscreen
I was so excited about this sun screen, it got so many favorable reviews. Upon application it looked gorgeous, dewy and evened my skin tone. Sadly, after a couple days use it was a no go for my skin. I had an allergic reaction and broke out so immediately had to request a return which I’m still waiting on. I believe it’s a great sunscreen, just not for my sensitive skin.

Heavy coverage
This sunscreen is great of you want more of a makeup feel to your coverage. It can be drying so would not recommend by itself for drier skin. Did not irritate eyes or cause rosacea flare.

Meh
The product adjusts to a really nice color, but feels extremely thick and opaque on the skin. I feel like i have to use less product so it doesn't look like a mask and is able to blend, but then I fear i'm not getting proper sunscreen coverage. Product is also somewhat drying. There are much better alternatives.

Goes on smoothly
The consistency is not too thick or too thin so it goes on smoothly. I bought the fair color, and it is still a little too "orangy" for me, but it blends well with a little water added.

This is for my fellow olive girls
I liked the formula and wish this would’ve worked for my skin tone, it’s too orange for medium olive undertones. it didn’t blend into my skin and appeared patchy. I also found that this kept oxidizing on me, I'm sure it’s good if you’re a warm or peach undertone but I found it too obvious on me :(

Great coverage, color is off
I love color science products, and I’m a medium in all of their products but this is ridiculously dark. It is not the color shown in the pictures on the colorscience site. I don’t know if this batch is just strangely dark but unfortunately it was a waste of my money. I’m gonna have to buy the lighter shade. Otherwise, the coverage is great and I love the product, just not the color.

Finish is too shiny.
This is a very good product if it were not for the finish. The shiny finish shows every imperfection. I would prefer something more matt.

Almost perfect!
My skin type: Dry - sensitive I did such a deep research until I could find the perfect zero-white-cast, derma approved sunscreen, and this was the one. I tried it, looked like a light makeup, so perfect... until I sweat :( my skin started itching uncontrollably and getting red. I just had to wash it off. I was 100% sure it was the sunscreen because I don't wear makeup or anything else, but just to make sure I tried it 3 more times... nope, same result. I live in a tropical country and I work out regularly so unfortunately this will NOT work for me. But hey, if you don't ever sweat or don't have sensitive skin I guess this could be good for you

Disappointed
Not as expected. The reviews made me purchase it, but is not good as others said. I have some dark spot in my face that I like to cover it and this product needs more than two applications for that. My skin is oily and I think is not good for me. Maybe in dry skin will work better. Is my first and last purchase of this product.

Difficult to blend
Preferred the colorescience classic sunscreen over the tinted version. I tried the fair and medium - fair was a bit too light (and left a white case) while medium was a bit too dark (and left an orange cast). I found the consistency difficult to blend and ended up looking cakey. I preferred the classic sunscreen for the blendability.

Nice Coverage
Although the coverage is fine, this product takes too many steps to use. I have to activate the color by rubbing my hand together, then after application I have to wash my hands thoroughly. I can't just use an application sponge. I probably won't buy this again.

As my sole sunscreen no. As makeup, yes.
This does not work for me as a face sunscreen. I am not one of those people who measures out the teaspoon or whatever, but I still like to make sure I have adequate spf coverage...and with this sunscreen that resulted in my face looking waaaaaay more makeup-y than I wanted and kinda greasy...well, not greasy but it just felt like I had this kinda gross filmy layer on my skin. To be fair, I am not a makeup/foundation person. However, I have found that this works great when I use it on top of my dedicated face sunscreen in a very small amount (like two pea sizes) just to give me a hint of color and evening of skin tone. So I guess, when I treat it like foundation it works lol.

Colorscience Sunforgettable Total protection
I didn’t like it. I bought the medium color and gave to my skin a dull appearance.

Good color but greasy
I have combination skin and have been trying desperately to find a tinted SPF with a matte finish. The tint blended perfectly but it left me looking immediately shiny and greasy, not just a “dewy glow”. I even put setting powder over it to decrease the shine but that only helped a little. In a few hours I was even more shiny. I normally get oily on my forehead and cheeks but this made me look greasy all over my face. It’s a shame because it would’ve been nice to put this on and not have to wear foundation. I returned it and am resuming my search for a matte SPF

Not for me
The finish was unnatural looking. It left a grayish, cloudy finish. Unfortunately, it did not work for me. I went back to the original Sunforgettable sunscreen, which I love.
