Easy to apply and blend, soft matte finish, and feels somewhat hydrating.
Yes, the Sunforgettable Face Shield Flex is a great way to combine foundation and sunscreen. It is easy to apply and blend, has a soft matte finish, and feels somewhat hydrating.
Product easy to apply, not as lightweight as I would have hoped. Not the products fault considering it’s about sun protection.
Due to the dark colour I’m unable to use it. My order was a mix up of colour. Tan shade received while I thought I ordered medium. I guess the shade was out of stock though the site did not make that clear on the screen page so I failed to catch this error and subsequently opened the package in excitement.

It goes on to orange for my liking. Also to sticky. Won’t repurchase
Hello,
Thanks for your review of the Sunforgettable® Face Shield Flex. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy using it, as it seems like it would be a great product. The orange color may be a bit too bright for some, but it should be easy to adjust if that's a problem. The face shield may be a bit sticky at first, but it should dry down quickly. Overall, I think it would be a great product for people who want a quick and easy way to protect their face from the sun. Thanks for taking the time to write a review!
