Reviews For Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield SPF 50 PA++++
Filtered by: Contains "" Clear Filters
I love (almost) everything about this
This spf is a staple in my daily regimen and it’s ALMOST perfect —with a couple of drawbacks. Beginning with the positives: it is thin enough to spread easily but thick enough to hold some structure so it doesn’t feel like it’s slipping all over your face. It gives fantastic coverage, it won’t entirely replace your foundation but it works beautifully to even out my skin tone and hide any blotches or redness on a makeup free day. It is a price point which may not be palatable for all budgets but for the ingredients and performance, it is definitely priced lower than other comparable sunscreens. Now for the negatives: it is VERY light. I have a pretty light skin tone and it is extremely light on me- it does self adjust somewhat and settle down but it takes a little bit, so not ideal if you’re trying to get out the door quickly. Also with these “universal” shades, it almost never includes people of color so I’d like to see a broader shade range. Lastly, I’ve noticed that under certain makeup it tends to want to pill slightly. I have adapted my foundation application to be more mindful of the pilling and that seems to do the trick. Overall I have enjoyed it and will continue to use it!

Good product
I liked the color and consistency, but a little too much glow for full face use. I only use it on certain areas or under makeup. Will try the one without glow next time

Nice when you want a little more "pop"
I typically wear the tinted EltaMD daily with a little bronzer but wanted something with a little more coverage for when I wanted a more finished look. My aesthetician recommended this because I told her I didn't want anything heavy or greasy. I am very pleased. It won't replace my Elta for everyday but it is light enough for daytime and gives a nice dewy look for evening events. I am 50 with olive combination skin and it blends perfectly.

Great texture, glow is a little too much for everyday
The consistency is perfect for my combination skin. Not too greasy, not drying, and no silicone feel. However, the “glow” formula is too shimmery for everyday use on my face. I am keeping it bc it can be covered with makeup and it will be great on beach days. It looks especially lovely on the chest and blurs out imperfections. I will probably try the regular (non-glow) formula next time.

Lovely
This is an almost perfect product. It's just a bit on the more emollient side. I still would recommend though, even with oily skin. Maybe use powder to set. It's worth it!

Like but don't love
Total face shield feels really nice on your skin. It is very easy to apply and the color is nice. It works well in water and does not sting your eyes. I thought I would like to use this on a daily basis. But, unfortunately after using product for 3 plus days, my skin began to break out. I think it would be a great product if it didn't make my skin break out.

Great way to wear physical sunscreen
I worry about tinted sunscreen looking crazy on my dark skin, however, this tint blended in perfectly and solved the heinous white cast issue I have with mineral/physical sunscreens. It loses one star because it made my foundation act a bit wonky, but that is partly my fault since I haven't waited enough time to let the sunscreen dry down before starting mt make up (I tend to always be scrambling in the mornings) anyway, I will use this one when I don't plan to have on foundation and will just do concealer or bb cream and my eyes -- which is great since masks and all. it transferred a tiny bit on the mask but nothing crazy.

Bronzed!
I have a more olive skin tone, so this product does well for me. It is VERY bronzing so be careful those with lighter skin tones. I have been mixing with my moisturizer as well as my foundation. I love it, but a little goes a long way.

Still Looking for the Perfect SPF
The texture of the product is good for oily to combination skin. It doesn't feel heavy even when the humidity is high. My issue with the product is that it leaves a bit of white cast on my skin. When I follow the product with powder, this is not a problem; however, I would not wear the product alone. Since I don't wear makeup every day, this means I need another product for those days. My search for the perfect facial SPF continues.

Nice glow
I mix this with my foundation for expediency and it works for me. I have occasionally used this alone just to have some sunscreen on my face before I ran out but it’s not a stand alone product under most circumstances for me, it’s a good addition that gives the skin a nice glow.

I like it but....
I am returning it. The coverage is fabulous, it's just a little too pink for my taste. It doesn't even out my skin tone in this shade. It's a great product and will purchase again in different shade

Very light
This is very light in weight. It provides a huge GLOW which I need to dial down a little with powder. Still love it.

Great coverage
Nice coverage and feel, however for the summer I need to combine the bronze and the glow versions. I have light-medium skin but olive undertone.

Good Tint
I only use this sun care to mix my other sun care with color. It is quite fluid and quite dark. A very small drop is enough to color my sun care. This bottle will last a long time.

Good product but need more shades!
I purchased original & glow tint. I’m light-medium w cool, pink undertones. The glow tint made my skin a yellowish color so I’m not able to wear it. The original works well under makeup but does not add any tint. I wish colorscience would make a cool tinted one for lighter tones. Also was hoping for a little coverage. Nice, clean, light feeling product.

Glowing
Love the way this products feels and looks on my skin. Instead health glow . I’m fond of the way the product smells that’s why I have given 4 stars instead of 5.

Very happy face
I decided to switch it up and try a new sunscreen. Gave this one a try and its a hit. I have always used the powder version to continue my sun protection during my day. I love this lotion sunscreen as well. It blends in nice, with smooth coverage. Glad I tried something new and would definitely purchase again.

Liquid gold
I purchased the bronze color which is too dark for my complexion. My tone is light to medium with neutral undertones. To remedy to problem I blend with the another untinted sunscreen. Gives me a beautiful pop of bronze color. Not greasy at all and looks great on my face. I gave 4 out of 5 stars because I feel the bronze is a little dark to be a universal tint. I prefer this product to the skinceuticals which has a more watery formula.

Nice product!
I purchased this to use as a base to use under tinted moisturizers. I don’t use this just as my spf but it’s another layer of it...can’t get too much spf! I’d say it’s good for light to light medium skin tones.
