Doesn't work for body sunscreen

Unreliable! I used it as directed, making sure I could see the powder coming out by tapping on the side to see that it was properly dispensed. Then I applied it to my face, arms, shoulders and décolleté before going outside and in 1.5 hours it was fried! Very disappointed as the concept of this product is good. I used to use the Sweat brand and liked them, but I chose this one because it was cheaper. Lesson learned, break a sweat

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Little things

LOVE! Use throughout the day and along the scalp as a touch-up.

This is my favorite sunscreen/makeup. When I'm outside, I usually apply an SPF moisturizer or direct sunscreen to my face and use it as a kind of "second layer of protection". When I feel shiny or sweaty and it's not time to reapply. or I can't reapply sunscreen if I put it all over my face and along part of my head. The color is usually not too dark and sometimes it feels like nothing is coming out of the brush, but it definitely leaves some color behind. I love it because it doesn't feel…

I burn very easily, especially on the scalp due to my involvement.

I burn very easily, especially on the crown of my head because of my fine hair. Most scalp sunscreens are greasy or sticky. This product was easy to apply with a brush and protected my sensitive scalp while out in the sun most of the day. Love the simple app and the results!

Pros
  • Finally understood
Cons
  • Not bad

I really wanted to love this product (especially because of the cheap price compared to similar products) but couldn't open it (i.e. move the bottom to the open position) full refund.Great concept but the design needs some tweaking.Also the brush is non-retractable and was difficult to put back under the cap.I've been in the Used a similar product in the past where you can "deep" the brush and the powder has been updated and is ready to use when you open it again.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Power outlet required

Really Works: Skin Care

I picked this up on a trip to Southern California. It's easy to pack if you don't have checked baggage, it's not liquid so it doesn't matter! You can take it with you completely. It is compact, lightweight and easy to use. I was concerned that it really works. We took it to Universal Studios and it was a hot, hot, hot, hot day. Too bad then. I used it first and then reapplied about 1/2 times throughout the day. My face, ears, neck and arms were unprotected all day. It worked. Unbelievable. I…

  • Build Quality

Beige, not clear color. Here's how to open it:

Chin up - it's not exactly "see-through" - it's definitely beige; I'd say it's yellow in tint (in the attached picture I've smeared some of that onto the paper guide that came with it, hoping to show you the color). Important note on opening - I almost destroyed the packaging at first, thinking the "open/close" rotating part was ONLY the dark blue plastic strip at the bottom. It is not true. You twist *the whole bottom part* (it contains the powder). If you twist it too hard to "open" it, it…

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Boring packaging

Surprisingly effective

Irish and II HATE sun protection. I know powders are potentially dangerous: inhalation, eye contact, missed spots. But the thing is, I just avoid using other types of sunscreen, so this seemed like the only way to force me to wear it. Expensive, yes. But then again, I wouldn't wear sunscreen otherwise. I still don't like the feel of anything on my skin, but light powder is much easier to apply. And like I said, it was amazingly effective. I've had a few activities in full sun this summer that I

Pros
  • Many positive emotions
Cons
  • No effect

I am redheaded and have very fair skin that likes to bask in various shades of a lobster dinner. When I was in Iraq, I used Colorscience brush-on sunscreen. It was very comfortable, many men have borrowed it from me, it protected my skin well and was more portable in my pockets than liquid sunscreen. I also liked that I can easily apply it to my ears, scalp, hands, etc. So I decided I needed a new one for my upcoming trip to the Caribbean and I was shocked by the stickers. $50 for a new tube! I

Pros
  • Not just useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • There are cons
