"The Colorescience Sunforgettable Mineral Face Shield is another tinted sunscreen that I have always recommended and really love."
Yay
"This is a top luxury sunscreen pick of mine, but they are expensive when it is full price. I know you've seen me mention this one in several of my videos over time on my channel. This one has a really good concentration of iron oxides in it, which is going to help give you full spectrum UV protection, and that's especially important for people with hyperpigmentation or melasma. So this is a really good option. They actually have several different types of their Unforgettable line. This is their Face Shield. It is tinted and comes in one shade. Then they have the Glow, which gives you a nice glowy finish. And then there is the Flex, which comes in four shades and really can blend into several different kind of shade ranges."

"These are really great, tinted all mineral. They are really great because they give you good protection and iron oxides, which are great for melasma prone skin. I think they come in several shades. They blend in quickly so easy to wear. They are a little more pricey. I do not use it like as my number one every day because they get expensive. But you can almost always always find these for 25 maybe 30% off during sales of the year. I love to wear this on no makeup days where I just want a nice little glowy look."
