Has anyone tried this product?

Sheila - I haven't tried this exact one but I have tried the Face Colore Perfekt which is basically same packaging but with a mineral foundation in there. The mineral foundation was good but the packaging was horrible. It's such a good concept but it's so wasteful. I can literally see puffs of powder come out every so often and sometimes end up getting too much in certain areas. The brush (at least on the Face Colore, which looks the same packaging wise) is also not very soft so I found it to be quite uncomfortable. Having said that, the MUA reviews were good (which is why I tried this) but I really don't like it.

Please let me know how the Sunforgettable is if you end up trying it.

Thank you for responding, Mabsy. I'm very tempted to pick one up; however, since I'm so used to applying half a teaspoon of cream/fluid sunscreen to my face, I wouldn't be sure how much of this product to apply to get the benefits stated on the package (SPF 30, with Titanium Dioxide 12%
Zinc Oxide 12%). hmm

I have this product and love it. It fits easily into my purse and is perfect for "emergency" sun protection when I hadn't planned on being outside. I just dust it over my face/chest/arms and the powder becomes transparent.

I know this post is a year old Shock

but I just started using this product because every sunscreen I use makes my skin break out. It's too soon to tell for me because usually everything works well for the first week or two and then it all goes bad. But, so far I really like the way it goes on, I can't even notice it after I brush it on. I just make sure I can see the powder coming out while i brush my face and feel pretty good about the coverage then. Has anyone else been using this since Cameron Diaz recommended it in a recent magazine?! Smile

Thanks for bringing this thread back JTLee. I've been eyeing this since the reviews for IS Clinical sunscreen powder hasn't been great, and SPF 20 is not enough for me. Do report back in a week or two on how your skin is liking it. Smile

YES - I am about to rave about this product now! My sunforgettable SPF 30 is fantastic. I have slightly oily skin and have always had trouble with sunblock being too goopy - especially with the other products I use. I have posted help messages on this website before and have found some nice sun screens but never really anything that was perfect - but this is it. It works I didn't get a single freckle even when I was ski-ing all day, there is absolutely no shine and although the brush isn't the softest its so easy to re-apply. I love this stuff.

I have been using the Colorscience Sunforgettable SPF 30 brush stick for a while now. I like that it is small and great for touchups during the day if I decided to go out of the office on my lunch hour. But the main reason I got this was that I liked the idea that I can just brush it on over my makeup so no need to mess up my makeup that was applied in the morning. I do use a lotion consistency sun block starting out in the morning under my makeup (DermaDoctor Body Guard SPF 30), but love the convenience of just a quick brush and SPF 30 coverage at the same time!

I tried this product, but it didn't work for me. I used the one with color. It was much to dark for my fair skin.

I'm really interested in trying this product too. Has anyone experienced any negative effects from the bismuth oxychloride in it? People who use mineral makeup often avoid ones that have bismuth oxychloride because it can be irritating and itchy.

Anyone?

Thanks.

About how long does a container last?

I have this (in clear) and I've just started to use it on my face after work as extra protection. I don't find the container too messy, but sometimes I'm not sure how much I'm putting on my face since it's hard to see what's coming out (so I might over do it). I'm very pleased with it though and will definitely repurchase. I'm not sure how long one will last with once a day use as I just started using mine.
