This product is excellent!!!! I have very sensitive skin and most sunscreens turn my entire face red when I use them (I am allergic to anything that has any type of glycol or salicylate in it). This product does not turn my skin red in any way. It does not rub off at all like most other powders do.

I bought the All Clear color in a full size and there is a lot of powder in the tube. I am not that crazy about the brush that comes in this package because bristles keep breaking off and staying on my face (they are hard to remove), but they distribute the powder sufficiently. When using the brush, make sure the sliding brush protector snaps when you push it down in order to have the brush distribute the powder (you will see what I am talking about when looking at the product). The case is very portable and can easily be carried in a purse for touch ups.

However, I have a light medium skin tone and the All Clear casts a slightly pale sheen to my skin (which would be fine for my much lighter winter skin color since I live in So Cal and use sunscreen in the winter, but not for my summer skin color). If you are medium- or darker-skinned, you are better off trying the Perfectly Clear (medium skin tone) or the Almost Clear (darker skin tones) as they have some color to them and won't look so drastic compared to the All Clear alone on your skin. If you have paler skin, the All Clear should work just fine. If you are considering this product, I would recommend buying a sample of the three main colors (All Clear, Perfectly Clear, and Almost Clear) and trying them out to see which color(s) match your skin (it should look natural on you).

Fortunately, I bought the samples of Perfectly Clear and Almost Clear to try out in case the All Clear was too light for me, while the All Clear looks okay if I work a little to blend it in, I found that Perfectly Clear was a great color for my summer skin tone.

One other thing, remember that it is SPF 30, so if you are going to use this product and spend a significant amount of time in the sun, don't forget to reapply the product often (like you would for an SPF 30 lotion) because the protection will break down faster with more sun exposure.

Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone considering using it. Even though it is very expensive, it is worth it and is a more viable option for me to use sunscreen without having my face turn red. I will be buying this product again.

If you want to protect your skin, hands down this is the best product. It provides full coverage without the annoyances of a lotion...it's not greasy, won't drip in eyes, it's immediate (don't have to wait 20 minutes), it's waterproof, sweat-proof and kids are guaranteed to complain less about this than traditional lotions. It also has cooling properties in it to bring skin temperatures down when out in the sun.

The powder sunscreen works well. It feels the same on my face as my regular face powder.

Our son did not want sunscreen on his face and would often rub his arm or a hand on his face while out playing and get sunscreen in his eyes. He'd scream "My eyes! My eyes!" as it would burn. Another mother in his preschool class recommended Colorescience. She had been using it successfully on her daughter. We gave it a try! The first time I tried to put it on his face he had a fit! He thought I was trying to put something in his eyes, like eye drops or something. But, after he realized it was sunscreen, he was okay with it, shockingly, by the second application. Now, today, Day No. 2 - he wanted to play outside. I said "Okay, but we need to put on your sunscreen." He said, "Okay, Mama, but the blue sunscreen." meaning Colorescience. (Its in a blue tube.) He said, "It doesn't burn my eyes" - so HURRAY! Finally an easy to apply sunscreen for his face - that won't burn his eyes should he rub his face for any reason. It looks like one tube with the brush will last us through the Summer. It was worth the money. I would buy it again. A++++++

Product works great! Helps prevent sunburn and is easy to apply. I also use this throughout the day if I need to touch up on my makeup. I love this stuff! One recommendation, if you are light skinned, go with Perfectly Clear; if dark or tanned, go with Almost Clear.

My neighbor recommended this. She uses it religiously on her kids. I tried it, and like it. You put it on like powder makeup, rub it in and it's effective immediately. No whining about lotion or sunstick getting in my kids eyes. You do have to remember to reapply about every 2 hours, otherwise sunburn is likely. But at least there's no waiting once it's applied, its ready.

Great product! It's the perfect way to add sunscreen throughout the day. I live in Arizona and I apply sunscreen every morning under my makeup, but the problem was how do you re-apply sunscreen when you have makeup on? Well, this is the best thing ever! I can re-apply the sunscreen and I don't have to worry about my makeup. Can't wait to use this when I go to Kauai!!!

I purchased this sunscreen last summer & kept it in the car - so easy & convenient to use - especially when I am driving around with sunroof open. Great product worth every penny!

I previously ordered this product at a spa that is not near my home. So glad to find it on Amazon!
