What reviewers say

Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?

Reviewers praise
  • Adapts to the skin tone as it blends, reducing the white cast common to mineral sunscreens
  • Available in multiple shades, making it more accessible to a range of skin tones
  • Delivers a smooth, glowy finish that can double as a light foundation layer and even out skin tone
Reviewers push back
  • Comes out white from the tube, which can be alarming before blending
  • Requires thorough blending to activate the colour-adapting effect, adding time to application
A mineral sunscreen that blends into the skin and adapts to the skin tone, earning genuine enthusiasm from both reviewers for its finish and broad-spectrum formulation.
— best for: Those with melanated or medium-to-deeper skin tones who want a mineral sunscreen with a tinted, foundation-like finish and visible light protection.

I’m absolutely in love with the Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Flex! It’s such a great find. The texture is amazing—it goes on so smoothly and feels weightless on the skin. What I love most is how well it holds up throughout the entire day without moving or feeling greasy. Honestly, I’m so happy I found this product Svitlana · colorescience.com

The Elta MD Tinted SPF is my holy grail. I find myself coming back to it each and every time. I’ve use it for about 3 years now. It leaves no white cast all all and it is tinted so it leaves the perfect my skin. It better coverage each and each time I wear it! People often compliment my makeup and are surprised when I tell them it’s a tinted SPF. I have hyperpigmentation and I trust this SPF so mu Cristina S · influenster.com
