Sunforgettable® Total Protection® Face Shield Flex SPF 50

Colorescience Sunforgettable® Total Protection® Face Shield Flex SPF 50 is a lightweight, tinted mineral sunscreen that combines comprehensive environmental protection with tone-adapting buildable colour coverage for a flawless, demi-matte finish. Powered by patented EnviroScreen® Technology, this all-mineral formula defends against the full spectrum of environmental aggressors — UVA/UVB radiation, blue light, pollution, and infrared radiation — while advanced antioxidants and nourishing, hydrating ingredients support long-term skin health.

What sets Face Shield Flex apart is its innovative encapsulated iron oxide pigments that bloom on the fingertips to deliver tone-adapting, buildable colour coverage that adjusts to your skin’s natural tone. Available in four uniquely flexible shades — Fair, Medium, Tan, and Deep — each designed to work across a broad range of skin tones and undertones. Safe for all skin types including sensitive. If choosing between two shades, the lighter shade is recommended.

Key Ingredients

• Mineral Sunscreen Filters (SPF 50 / PA++++) — A 100% mineral, chemical-filter-free sunscreen system that provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection at SPF 50 with a PA++++ UVA rating. Mineral filters are well-tolerated by sensitive and reactive skin and do not penetrate the skin or disrupt hormones.
• EnviroScreen® Technology — Colorescience’s patented multi-spectrum protection system that extends defence beyond UV rays to include protection against pollution, blue light (HEV), and infrared radiation — the full range of modern environmental aggressors that contribute to premature skin aging, discoloration, and oxidative damage.
• Encapsulated Iron Oxide Pigments — Innovative tone-adapting pigments that are encapsulated to remain white until activated by the warmth and friction of the fingertips. Once activated, they bloom and develop into a shade that adjusts to the skin’s natural tone, delivering buildable, natural-looking colour coverage that blurs imperfections and evens skin tone without the flat, mask-like appearance of traditional tinted sunscreens.
• Antioxidant and Hydrating Complex — A blend of advanced antioxidants and nourishing, hydrating ingredients that neutralize free radicals generated by environmental exposure and support long-term skin health — ensuring that Face Shield Flex delivers meaningful skincare benefits alongside its protective and cosmetic functions.

Shades

Available in four flexible shades, each designed to work across a broad range of skin tones and undertones:

• Fair — Ideal for fair to light skin tones
• Medium — Ideal for light to medium skin tones
• Tan — Ideal for medium to tan skin tones
• Deep — Ideal for tan to deep skin tones

If you are between two shades, the lighter shade is recommended. All shades can also be mixed and matched with other Colorescience Face Shield products to create your ideal shade match — all Face Shields contain the same SPF 50 all-mineral protection.

How to Use

Dispense onto fingertips and rub gently to release and activate the encapsulated pigments — the shade will begin to develop from white to your colour. Apply to a moisturized face and continue to blend for even coverage, watching as it adjusts to your skin tone and blurs imperfections. The shade is fully developed when the product is no longer white — allow 1–2 minutes for the shade to adjust completely.

• One and Done: Apply one even layer to the entire face, including under the eyes, for naturally you, powerfully protected coverage.
• The Foundation Replacer: Build coverage to your ideal level by applying a second layer after waiting 1 minute following the first.
• Pro Tip: Layer underneath foundation for fuller colour coverage, or use with Face Shield Glow or Face Shield Bronze to enhance your look. Set with a Colorescience Total Protection brush-on sunscreen for all-day wear.

Sun Protection Measures: Spending time in the sun increases your risk of skin cancer and early skin aging. To decrease this risk, regularly use a sunscreen with a Broad-Spectrum SPF value of 15 or higher alongside other sun protection measures, including limiting time in the sun between 10 am and 2 pm, and wearing protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses.
