Hi Angie
I’ve been using the Colorscience for a few years. I can’t say enough good things! While it’s expensive – the protection is great. The biggest test came on vacation in August – I applied my regular sunscreen (Algenist) under makeup and walked though a hot, humid city in a marathon 12 hr day; i had a hat but hat’s don’t protect me well and there was pavement reflection etc. I reapplied it 2x, at lunch and a late afternoon break. I had no burn whatsoever (fair, burn easy skin), it kept my oily skin at bay even through a lot of perspiration and it was so convenient! Later that week ,I tested it at the beach, this time regular Algenist sunscreen and no makeup and I reapplied about every 2 hrs. Performed beautifully. I also use it on the backs of my hands b/c I don’t like sunscreen getting all over everything. Thanks for doing the review; now I’ll just stick with this and not worry about the other products!

Hi Angie,
How much of the powder do you need to use to make it effrctive?
Thank you.

Hi Lisa~ To get the full SPF on the label you need to use a LOT of the powder which is why I don’t recommend these for your main sunscreen. I think they’re fine to top up your sunscreen for casual sun exposure like running errands etc, but not for sitting on the beach. xo ~angie

  Thanks for your reply. I went ahead and purchased the colorescience and the physician’s formula. The physician’s formula product was cakey and I hated the way it made my skin look and feel. I wish I could comment on the colorescience but try as I may, following the product instructions, I simply cannot get the powder to come out of the container into the brush…any suggestions other than those in the product insert? Thanks!

    Thanks for your thoughts on the Physicians Formula! On the Colorescience, I just bang it on my hand a few times and it loads into the brush… it never really looks like it’s in there but I can see powder flying around my face when I apply it.

hi Angie,
Do you know of a drug store mineral powdered SPF even if you don’t prefer?

And have you ever tried the Jane Iredale powdered SPF even though that would not be

drug store? Curious and thanks for your review.

Hi Becky~ Physicians Formula makes an SPF 30 powder sunscreen and you get .35 oz for around $15! Here’s the link to it on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2L2AD00 Derma-E also makes one but you only get .15 oz for $21 so it’s more expensive than the Tarte: https://amzn.to/2L8Za08
I haven’t tried the Jane Iredale. xo ~angie
