My Review

I wanted to try a mineral-based facial sunscreen with a tint which would provide colour and hide my imperfections while protecting me from the sun’s harmful rays. Rachel our Make-up Expert suggested this Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Flex SPF50 in the Medium colour as my foundation shade is beige. It is deceiving as it comes out the tube white but as soon as it is rubbed into the skin the colour flexs in the product disperse and the colour adapts to your skin. It blended well  with a semi-matt finish. It is buildable so if you prefer more coverage or you want to wear it instead of foundation you can just add more layers. I do use my Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Mineral Sunscreen Brush SPF50  alongside this to touch up throughout the day. No burning/redness experienced.  I am now using the flex as my foundation with hardly any make-up while we continue enjoying this beautiful Summer and will definitely repurchase. Coloresience mention that you can use it with the Glow version to highlight the high points,and Bronze to contour. Might give that a try next.

I can see now why the Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shields are highly recommended on Youtube and the range is one of our best sellers which is why with us they ‘fly out the door!’
