Colorescience Total Protection Face Shield Flex SPF 50, 1.8 fl. oz.

I bought the Colorescience Flex in Medium because I had seen great reviews and liked the idea of a tinted mineral sunscreen. The formula itself felt really high quality and it did provide good sun protection, but the shade didn’t end up working for my skin tone. ✔️ What I liked: - Great daily mineral sun protection. - Lightweight texture and easy to apply. - Didn’t irritate my skin or cause breakouts. - Nice natural finish at first. ❌ What I didn’t like: - On my skin, the Medium shade looked orange. - The color didn’t blend well with my undertone. - I had to work it in quite a bit to avoid a noticeable line with my neck. I think the formula is really good, but the shade selection definitely requires care. In my case, it just wasn’t the right match

I have been using this religiously as my foundation for over a year! I love it. It works best for me when I use moistuzer, let it dry enough so you have a little slip. A LITTLE goes a long way and double check the bottle because even when it feels empty it’s not fully empty :) it’s not a full coverage approach to foundation I use an elf glo setting over it in winter . It’s light weight and the SPF was what I was looking for!

I recently switched to this mineral sunscreen after having irritation and redness from several chemical sunscreens, and it has made a big difference for me. My skin is sensitive, but this one feels gentle and comfortable without causing burning or itching. It gives me good protection and doesn’t leave my skin feeling worse by the end of the day. Definitely a better option for sensitive skin.

I’ve tried a lot of skin tints and this one actually surprised me. The Colorescience Flex Shield gives that “your skin but healthier” look without feeling heavy or greasy. I love that it starts white and adjusts to your skin tone — it blends in really naturally and evens everything out without looking makeup-y. The finish is glowy but still skin-like, and knowing I’m getting SPF protection at the same time makes it perfect for everyday wear. On busy days this has honestly replaced my foundation.

this product was highly recommended to me by my esthetician. I was hesitant to try it because of the price point, but once I learned I could use my HSA funds I immediately purchased! the product is not overly greasy or oily- it gives a beautiful glow. I would recommend setting with a setting spray or powder for longevity. the coverage is buildable, but won't be a fix-all for someone desiring full coverage- as an acne girly, I am satisfied with this product while paired with a few dabs of my concealer. it works well with other colorescience products AND with my other everyday makeup products which was a huge plus for me. it doesn't feel heavy on the skin either which was also a huge selling point for me as someone who needs coverage but hates the feeling of a full face. all in all, I think the product is absolutely worth the money regardless of it being HSA approved or not. I would recommend to anyone who loves wearing makeup but also is looking for something light and effortless. one note about the shade- I have fair olive skin but tan easily, so I got the shade "light" -but I might try the shade "fair" next time as this shade pulls slightly orange on me. the shade matching can be difficult, but I think that's to be expected with a color changing product.

I really like this product. I have been searching for a long time. Going through the tedious task of purchasing multiple tinted sunscreens to find one that would match my skin tone and wouldn’t be to heavy or to greasy. Basically I don’t want to wear makeup but I want to protect my skin from the sun and have a little something to even out my skin tone. I finally found one with colorescience! It goes on white but as you spread it across your face it starts to just blend into your skin tone. It does feel a little heavy at first but that’s because a little goes a long way. So once you spread that out across your face it’s very lightweight, doesn’t look or feel greasy, and gives an even skin tone to your face. I tried to colors. One was fair and the other light. Both blended in perfectly. One was slightly lighter than the other. My husband liked the slighter darker one which when I say slightly darker it just gave me a bit of a glow. I liked the slightly lighter one. So I decided to keep both and wear the lighter one on most indoor days and wear the slightly darker one on outdoor or going out somewhere days. It’s just a great product you can’t go wrong. It’s smooth and feels hydrating. I have more mature skin and it doesn’t cake up in the creases and wrinkles making them more obvious. Same thing for the pores. It doesn’t over exaggerated the pores like some do. I am going to keep using this.

A few things worth knowing about this sunscreen that I haven't seen covered well in other reviews. First, the formula itself is genuinely cool: it comes out of the bottle white and blends into a tint that adapts to your skin tone. If you've struggled to find a mineral SPF that doesn't leave a white cast, this is worth trying. It's noticeably thicker than La Roche-Posay's mineral-tinted sunscreen, so a little goes a long way — which partly justifies the small bottle size, though I'll admit the 1.8 fl oz feels pricey if you're generous with application. On ingredients: I ran this through Yuka, and it scored poorly. The breakdown was 2 ingredients flagged as moderate risk, 8 as low risk, and 34 with no risk. For a product positioned as a clean, mineral SPF, that moderate-risk flag is worth considering if you're ingredient-conscious. It's not a dealbreaker for everyone, but it's information I wish I'd had before purchasing. Performance-wise, SPF 50 protection, a flattering adaptive tint, and a finish that works under makeup make this a strong daily driver. Just go in knowing what's in the bottle — literally and figuratively.

My dermatologist recommended the Colorescience foundation to me four years ago, and I fell in love with it the first time I used it. It has great coverage, excellent quality, is lightweight, and blends perfectly with my skin tone.

This is moisturizing yet not greasy. It spreads beautifully over the face and the pigments are not too intense but covers nicely. Leaves a lovely glow on the skin. Its worth every penny I paid. I have dry skin.

Parece que no es original el producto, lo he comprado antes y está vez el tono es distinto, el empaque viene diferente, algo no se siente bien.

La verdad ame el producto, me dejó la piel hermosa no es grasoso a pesar de que yo tengo la piel grasa, recibí el producto en perfecto estado. De verdad que es de los mejores protectores solares con color. Tenía muchas dudas pero deja una piel muy bella como de bebé. Lo ame de verdad!!

It is quite expencive and it took me a while to decide to buy it. But it is 100 % worth it. Amazing product!! Works perfectly for me.

je suis vraiment impressionnée par la Total Protection Face Shield Flex SPF 50. Après l’avoir testée, j’apprécie sa texture légère et la couvrance naturelle qu’elle offre. La teinte medium se fond parfaitement avec mon teint, et la protection SPF 50 me rassure pour les longues journées en extérieur. Contrairement à d’autres produits, elle ne laisse pas de film gras et ne provoque aucune irritation grâce à l'oxyde de zinc. Ma peau reste protégée et confortable toute la journée. C'est devenu un indispensable dans ma routine quotidienne ! et je le recommande vraiment
