Key Ingredients

• 12% Zinc Oxide (Mineral Sunscreen Active) — A 100% mineral, chemical-filter-free sunscreen active that provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection at SPF 50 / PA++++. Mineral zinc oxide is well-tolerated by sensitive and reactive skin and does 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.
• Iron Oxide Blend — A unique blend of iron oxides that provides the formula’s light, sheer tint while delivering additional blue light (HEV) defence. Iron oxides are proven to enhance protection against visible light, making them a meaningful addition to any sunscreen formula targeting comprehensive environmental protection.
• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) — A multi-functional vitamin that helps regulate sebum production, minimize the appearance of pores, and strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier — directly supporting the formula’s oil-control and pore-refining benefits. Note: if you have a known allergy to niacinamide, perform a patch test before use.
• Tremella Fuciformis (Silver Ear Mushroom) Extract — A potent botanical humectant and antioxidant with exceptional water-holding capacity that delivers hydration and a healthy-looking skin appearance without contributing to shine or congestion.
• Antioxidant Complex (Bisabolol, Allantoin, Tocopheryl Phosphate, Sunflower Sprout Extract, Tara Fruit Pod Extract, Dimethylmethoxy Chromanol) — A comprehensive blend of antioxidant and skin-conditioning actives that neutralize free radicals, soothe and calm the skin, and support overall skin health and resilience beyond UV protection.

How to Use

Apply Face Shield Matte liberally and evenly to the face each morning as the final step in your skincare routine. Spot apply to areas requiring additional oil control, such as the T-zone. For on-the-go protection and continued oil absorption throughout the day, pair with Colorescience Total Protection™ Sheer Matte SPF 30 Brush-on Sunscreen, reapplying at least every two hours.

Note: This product contains Niacinamide (Vitamin B3). If you have a known allergy to Niacinamide or suspect you may be allergic, perform a patch test on the forearm or neck area before use.

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.
